It is in our nature as humans to strive for perfection. We want the perfect relationship, the perfect job, the perfect house, etc. Have you ever noticed that striving for perfection leaves you feeling disappointed or always wanting more? Some of us wear masks around others in order to hide our imperfections. Have you ever noticed that this is exhausting? In this week's episode we invite you into our discussion of what it means to be perfectly imperfect, how to be accepted with all of your imperfections, and to learn to love yourself with all of your flaws. We welcome you exactly as you are!
