Sandy Zeldes – Why We Get Stuck in Perfectionism & Shame

Linda Kreter speaks with guest Sandy Zeldes about how we all (especially women) get caught and stuck in perfectionism.  Often seeking perfect is at the price of very good, and time, energy, and psyche is wasted.  Today we break it down.

Though high achievers are often wired for success, that isn’t always coupled with self-compassion.  Do more, press on, forget to eat or eat too much, lose sleep, and sometimes confuse discipline with neglect or even self-abuse.  How else do you explain why the irrational fear of missing out is sucking the life out of you?  You can change your ways.

Change with adding self-care, lose the obsession with fixing everything, and remember you are a terrific human being.  Perfectionism is not a badge of honor, and it’s often an old sign of survival.  Stay big and lead from authenticity, love, and freedom.
