Dr. Margaret Rutherford is celebrating her 30th year as a psychologist in a private clinical practice that she loves in Fayetteville, Arkansas. In 2014, Dr. Margaret published an article on The Huffington Post that went viral. That article evolved into Perfectly Hidden Depression, Dr. Margaret’s debut novel which focuses on how destructive perfectionism can act as an unconscious camouflage for silent despair, loneliness, and even suicidal thoughts. Dr. Margaret joins Erin to discuss how we’ve learned to camouflage our emotional pain with accomplishments, what's underneath it all (the way we show up, our sense of humor, our personality, our energy) that needs attention, and the difference between constructive perfectionism and destructive perfectionism. Dr. Margaret explains why perfectionism is highly regarded in corporate culture and tools we can use to heal. If you’re looking for a science-backed understanding of perfectly hidden depression and perfectionism, this is the episode for you.
