Are you an overachiever?


Some perfectionistic traits - e.g., being hardworking or paying attention to details - can be extremely handy. But what happens when you don’t do things in moderation and feel compelled to do more and more, do everything right, and avoid mistakes?


In this episode, I chat with Clarissa Ong, Ph.D., about her work on perfectionism.


We discussed in detail:

  • The coherence trap
  • Meta-awareness: awareness about awareness
  • Exposure exercises as awareness exercises
  • Motivational flexibility
  • Uncertainty workouts
  • Self-compassion practices
