Compassion and acceptance and empathy will allow us to let go of that inner critic who is judging us constantly for how invaluable we are because of our imperfections, and it allows us to see ourselves in a healthy light and ultimately not be so self disrespectful or self neglecting, or self just so dismayed by our own flaws, our own existence, and allows us to make peace with who we are.
Feeling like you can never measure up, no matter how hard you try? This episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast' with Yitz Epstein is for you. Yitz tackles the heavy burden of perfectionism, explaining it as a relentless drive to avoid pain, manipulate situations, or please others. But instead of bringing relief, this pursuit often results in more shame and guilt.
Yitz describes perfectionism as a coping mechanism that stems from past wounds, particularly those inflicted during childhood or through narcissistic relationships. He urges listeners to recognize the truth behind their need for perfection and to embrace self-compassion and acceptance. By quieting the inner critic and letting go of unrealistic standards, you can start to heal and appreciate your true self. This episode offers practical advice and heartfelt encouragement for anyone struggling with perfectionism and its ties to narcissistic abuse.
