"Choosing between the potential of failing and maybe succeeding...or failing ahead of time by not doing it at all."

In this week’s episode, our host, Kate Moryousseftalks about how perfectionism shows up alongside ADHD with her guest, Kristen Carder, an ADHD expert and host of the I Have ADHD podcast.

• How shame from childhood can create perfectionism as an adult
• Trauma response and perfectionism
• Breaking perfectionism down to understand to override it
• Fear disguised as perfectionism and how you’re ultimately protecting yourself
