Manage episode 329007660 series 3341547
Are you a perfectionist? Do you want everything to be perfect and berate yourself if something falls short of your expectations? Are you hard on yourself – and others? Does looking at social media make you feel bad about your life? If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

And what can we do to feel better about ourselves and the world.
