A healthily compulsive person can use their natural disposition in service of love, compassion and the greater good.
Ever felt like your perfectionism is more a curse than a blessing? In this episode of 'Eggshell Transformations', host Imi Lo chats with Jungian Analyst Gary Trosclair about the complexities of Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) and the 'driven personality'. Gary flips the script on what it means to be compulsively driven, suggesting that these traits can actually be harnessed for love, compassion, and the greater good.
Imagine using your natural tendencies to fuel positive change rather than feeling trapped by them. The discussion dives into the differences between OCD and OCPD, offering a clearer understanding of these often-confused conditions. Gary also ties in the Jungian Hero’s Journey, exploring how our compulsions can fit into a larger narrative of personal growth. Imi brings her own experience working with gifted individuals, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and nurturing these traits early on.
They also touch on the significance of relational therapy and healing inner parts to achieve a balanced life. Whether you struggle with overcontrol or just want to understand your driven nature better, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in for a conversation that promises to transform how you view your compulsive traits.
