Description
My guest today is Thomas Curran, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Sciences at the London School of Economics and Political Science. His primary area of expertise is the personality characteristic of perfectionism, how it develops, and how it impacts on mental health. His most notable work is the theory of cultural influences on perfectionism, which rose to special prominence following a 2017 publication of the first systems-level cohort study to show that perfectionism is on the rise in American, Canadian, and British college students. The topic is his book The Perfection Trap: Embracing the Power of Good Enough. In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss: Generational differences Levels of perfectionism Expectations and reality Impact of the culture of consumption on mental health Happiness and contentment Societal pressures Redefining success Jump in! --- I’m MICHAEL COVEL, the host of TREND FOLLOWING RADIO, and I’m proud to have delivered 10+ million podcast listens since 2012.
