I put out episodes four times a week around neurology, psychology, early childhood development,

cognitive behavioral therapy so that you can kind of

understand how all of those things come together to make you who you are.

Because if you can understand who you are, why you are the way that you are, then you can

improve yourself. And if you can improve yourself if you can improve your life.

Today I'm going to be talking about overcoming perfectionism.

Perfectionism holds so many people back. It's held me back for years and it's something

that I've had to battle with and try to overcome. But when you look at it

perfectionism is this relentless pursuit for flawlessness and when you think of it that way it sounds great but if you are a person

who deals with perfectionism you know that it's not you know it's not good at all

perfectionism in this constant need to always feel like you're perfect comes at the cost

of many mental and emotional well-beings that exist out there.

And so today I'm going to talk to you about perfectionism. I'm going to talk about, you know, why we develop this adaptation, this behavioral adaptation called perfectionism, you know, where it comes from, but I'm also

going to start to talk about how it shows up in your day-to-day life and then I'm

going to teach you how to actually overcome it. So I always tell you this, whenever think of something and I'm mostly about

creating an episode I'm always thinking about you know something that people deal

with my first question always possible my head is why? Like why? Where does it come from?

Why do we develop this thing?

And so perfectionism begins pretty much where everything else begins.
