Anxiety 101: Perfectionism, Insecurities, Control, Discomfort, and Fear Come Home to Peace

    • Parenting

Today in this final episode of the Anxiety 101 four-part series, I share with you the main sources of anxiety that I see in myself and my clients.
Perfectionism
Insecurities
Control
Discomfort
Fear
Each has its own role in our lives and each can cause its own type of anxiety issues.
I used to brag about being a perfectionist because I felt like it would mean that I was detailed enough and worked hard enough to be good enough. It was almost like a badge of honor I held. If you asked me to do something, I was going to do it exactly right.
I was exactly wrong.
But I desperately needed others to not see me for who I really was. So I held up that shield of perfectionism until I couldn't anymore. When I ran out of strength, emotional and physical, I was forced to put down that shield and show up authentically,  just the way I am.
I couldn't have done it without the help and support of my own Life Coach. I am so grateful for her and all she did for me.
If you need that support, reach out. Let's find someone who can help you through these issues so that you too can Come Home to Peace.
