Listen "Feeling the Obligation to be Perfect"
Episode Synopsis
Hey there! In this week’s episode, after bringing you up to speed on my life and chatting about my recent favourites, I talk about feeling the obligation to be perfect. To begin, I explain the influences media and toxic positivity bring, accompanied with real life cases. Afterward, I list some solutions which have been convenient for me, and emphasise the importance of truly believing them. To continue, I clarify that everybody is at a different stage in their life, and how that should lead us away from comparison. I wrap off with three specific points to take away from this episode.

“You’re in it alone, but, ultimately, the result is for you”
“Allow yourself to be real time to time, free of judgement”
“We all put an altered image of ourselves out there”
“Nobody knows us completely except ourselves”
“Comparing two different people is like comparing variables of different nature”
“The only person that has to be pleased with you... is you!”
“External validation will never compare to how much more gratifying internal validation is”
“If you’re completely pleased with yourself, you won’t fall into feeling badly about yourself based on what the media has to show”
“Loose track of the habit of comparing ourselves to others and being stressed about putting the perfect image of ourselves out there”
“Choosing to stop believing these ideals around me is a completely rational decision”
“We should reach a point where we are so fulfilled with ourselves that all of these external factors can’t get to us”
“We’re all just trying to project our most out together versions” Thanks for tuning in, and have a beautiful week!
