Another Mother Runner #464: Overcoming Perfectionism
Sarah and Tish Hamilton delve into perfectionism—what it is, what it does to us, how to overcome it—with Kathryn Ely, a licensed counselor and host of the Imperfect Thriving podcast. A self-professed “anxious perfectionist,” Kathryn lays out:
-traits and behaviors of perfectionism;
-why perfectionism can trip you up—in running and everyday life;
-how (and why!) to give yourself permission to be a beginner;
-the power (both positive and negative) of self-talk; and
-what type of therapy can work best for overcoming perfectionism.
In the liberal arts-y intro, Sarah and Tish talk poetry, wildflowers, and sunrises (!!); Kathryn makes a perfectly timed entrance at 10:43.
