E168 Progress Over Perfection


Hi Friends,

In this episode I talk about:

Perfectionism, it can be a great thing to strive for, but it's not realistic. When we are working on our mental health and we make some progress it can be encouraging, but then when we have setbacks it can feel like all the progress we made has gone down the drain. Recognizing that bad days are going to happen and having the patience with ourselves on the journey is key.
