Is There a Standard of Perfection?

Thea: My teacher was a monk. He saw me going for this standard of perfection, and he kept saying that. So then there was shame around thea like even getting help for it. And actually meeting you, lea, was also pivotal in changing my approach to how i was already. I had already been on self kindness, but definitely was still holding myself secretly, like this unreasonable standard. When i got know about you and your practice, and this almost like like asking people not to take this perfectionist approach, like we don't live that way just like what you were saying. It really, it really had a profound a impact on me.
