Episode 17. Unlearning Toxic Perfectionism With Coach Jordana Confino
Manage episode 403678386 series 3490523
This week, Kate and Rhia are joined by Career Coach and recovering perfectionist, Jordana Confino. Jordana shares her high achiever origin story, from chasing achievement in high school, to law school at Yale, to a series of career choices that kept burning her out.
She then shares how she used science-backed, positive psychology to go from debilitating anxiety to thriving in a career where she helps others get out from under the thumb of their “inner drill sergeant.”
If you feel like you can never do enough, like what you can do isn’t done well, or like your inner critic is the thing that’s making you better, this episode is for you. Jordana, Rhia, and Kate share tips that help each of them break out of that mindset and be kinder to themselves.
