25. Car Confessions with Leesh! Letting Go of Perfection During the Holidays...
This week on Car Confessions with Leesh, Alicia discusses how our idea of "perfection" is not what makes the holidays. Our presence is enough and those that truly love us want us to show up as our authentic selves! At the same time, those of us seeking perfection, have to let go and allow loved ones to be themselves...we are not in control!
“Perfectionism is a delusion that can rob one of a very successful, enriching life if not careful.”
