As perfectionists, are we allowed to be not good — even bad 😬 — at something? How the heck do we cope with the inevitable fact that there are things in this life we’re simply not good at without letting those things define our overall worth as human beings?
These are the questions we’re here to answer this week, so strap in as we dive deep into one of the worst perfectionist effing nightmares out there.
HERE'S A SNEAK PEEK OF THE GOODNESS…
“Having to master something — or not master it and sit with the fact that we haven’t — teaches us respect for not only our own abilities but our own limitations and increases our ability to see and respect the talents + gifts of others.”
“Is the journey of learning worthwhile even if the end isn’t mastery?”
“If the destination is the only thing you’re driving for, you’re probably off track.”
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE…

The relationship between not being good at something and our overall worthiness
Why the intention behind our desire to be good at something is key
