So many of us dream of perfection. The perfect life, career, family, partner, you name it. But have we ever stopped to ask ourselves what perfection actually means and what the pursuit of perfection entails? 

While we are naturally drawn to images and ideas of perfection, we often overlook the damage that overly perfectionistic behavior and goal setting can cause to our well-being and relationships. Join Jahsana in this episode as she discusses some tell-tale signs of what to look out for in perfectionistic tendencies that may be actually causing more stress and less overall productivity, and lastly some tips for how to start practicing imperfection.

Enjoy!
