You know, I'm kind of the wrong person to ask about perfectionism because I think one of my greatest virtues, even in my most difficult moments in my life is just my ability to be like, fuck it, let's go. And in some ways, I've almost had to become more methodical and more pristine about things as I've trained myself to be.

But I think that perfectionism, just like control, just like workaholism, all of it is just another form of protection. If it's not perfect, and I see this particularly right now, even in like my young child, for instance, it's like, if he's not perfect at it, he won't do it. Why? Because he's so afraid of the feeling of not being Good enough, right? Not doing it perfectly, being inadequate.

So these are young, young parts that were established at a very, very young age. And so we need to be very gentle with them. And so the broken record, do the four-step check-in with the perfectionist. You know, I'm just going to sound like a broken record. But recognizing first also that that perfectionist is very young. If you ask your perfectionist partner, how long have you been around?
