In this episode of The Better Everyday Podcast, we dive deep into the harmful cycle of perfectionism and how it can shape our lives, often without us even realizing it. David opens up about his experience growing up with strict parents, where he felt he had to be the "perfect" kid to receive the love, affirmation, and encouragement he craved. He shares how this pressure to fit a mold led to years of self-criticism and a constant fear of falling short.

We explore the importance of parents creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can be themselves—where they are allowed to make mistakes and know they are loved unconditionally, regardless of their achievements. We also discuss how this dynamic doesn't just affect us as kids, but follows us into adulthood, shaping how we interact with ourselves and others.

We reflect on the damaging effects of not giving ourselves grace, how we often hold ourselves—and those around us—up to impossible standards, and how we can break free from this cycle of judgment and perfectionism. Through healing, self-love, and the process of change, we can start to embrace who we truly are and extend grace to ourselves and others along the way.

Tune in for an insightful conversation about growth, healing, and the journey toward breaking free from perfectionism!
