Episode: Why Being Perfect Makes Us Weak — Alyson and Tripp Lanier
Description: Whether it’s your looks, your job, or whatever — do you feel a lot of pressure to get it right?
Do you ever beat the hell out of yourself for making a mistake?
And if we all know that no one’s perfect, then why do so many of us think we should be?
Today Alyson and I dig into perfectionism: how we get wired for it, why we let it abuse us, and why striving to get it right makes it harder for us to have what we truly want in life.
