Calling all perfectionists and Type-A folks (and those who are intrigued by them): This enlightening episode is for you! With co-hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Coach Liz Waterstraat, guest Erin Ayala, Ph.D., a sport psychologist and endurance athlete, talks about: -the difference between being a diligent athlete and a perfectionist; -the double-edged sword of upholding super-high standards; -the benefits of letting go, even in a race; -balancing ambition + striving with gratitude; and, -acknowledging a workout or race sucked!
