Does your sense of self-worth depend upon other people’s thoughts and beliefs? Is the desire for perfection holding you back from getting what you truly want from your life and relationships? When you endeavor to conform to societal — or other people’s — expectations of what is acceptable and worthy, you open yourself up to feelings of shame and fear, which may be corrupting your standards and holding you back from your desires. Dr. Marie Murphy suggests a solution: cultivating a sense of self-worth that is not contingent upon what other people value as perfect. So, are you ready to stop perfectionism from interfering in your life and happiness? In this episode of Your Secret Is Safe With Me, Dr. Marie Murphy discusses the role of perfectionism in romantic relationships. Listen as Dr. Murphy talks about the harmful impacts of perfectionism, the importance of establishing a sense of self-worth that is not conditional upon others, and how to nurture a relationship based on your own desires.
