Did you know that perfectionism has deep roots in white culture. Based partly in religion the white western world seeks 'one right way' to do a thing. This is not something that exists in Black culture.

In the episode we talk about the origins of perfectionism and how it oozes into our lives unseen, causing mental health and social togetherness issues.

- Why White people don't question things growing up, in fact why they don't question many things in life.
- Where we have a crossover between authenticity and and perfectionism
- Why perfectionism a giant tool for capatalism
- The bias around gnerder, accent and all the things that feed into perfectionism

We also go deep with Justin inot what it's like to grow up as a black person in a PWI (Private White Institution) and how it's spilled over in to the rest of his life.

So much to unpack, more knowledge you just can't unlearn.
