Wednesday, 25 February, 2026
Send a textWhat if you could keep your high standards as a mom and lose the constant pressure that says you’re never enough? That’s the promise of a research-backed shift from perfectionism’s heavy “concerns” to its healthy “strivings,” and it can change the way you parent—and how you feel—starting today.In this episode, I show you how to protect the part of you that wants to grow while refusing the self-criticism that steals joy. You’ll learn the telltale signs that you’ve crossed the line—like all-or-nothing thinking, deflecting praise, and chronic comparison—and get simple tools to reset your nervous system before you spiral. Then we put compassion to work, not as a slogan, but as a daily practice that fuels motivation without shame.If you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com
