The Perfectionist Generation | Self-criticism, social media and questioning ’perfection’

The second episode of “The Wooden Spoon” explores perfectionism and how the concept of 'being perfect' changes throughout life. We hear the group discuss personal moments of self-criticism from University and work life, the impact of social media, and the journey to finding acceptance with imperfection. This episode also dives deeper into a discussion about clinical perfectionism and what can be learnt from failing to be perfect.
