Do You Secretly Love Being A Perfectionist? How Being A Perfectionist Can Lead To False Self Esteem And Inevitably A Downward Spiral

Admit it! You take a little pride in the fact that you're a perfectionist don’t you? Sure you joke about it, making it seem like it’s that annoying and quirky quality that you have, and wish you didn’t. But deep down, you know you kind of like it…don’t you? And I know, because this was me. 

I would make fun of myself all the time, admitting to others that I was indeed a perfectionist like it was such an annoying thing. But on the inside, I was secretly proud of being a perfectionist. I mean come on, who wouldn’t feel proud about getting things perfect every single time, am I right?! lol. That is until you don’t. When that happens, being a perfectionist can very quickly become your worst mental nightmare. 

• When the career that you were at the top of game with suddenly has you feeling like a failure
• When the perfect marriage or relationship suddenly slaps you in the face with something you never expected
• When the perfect business that you built from the ground up with everyone watching suddenly burns to the ground. 

These are the times that will teach you whether or not the confidence you have in yourself is real. 

That’s why on this episode of TheFemmeCast, we’re going to talk all about how perfectionism could lead to false self esteem. The kind that can quickly cause you to downward spiral as soon as something goes wrong.
