Are you an overachiever?

Some perfectionistic traits - e.g., being hardworking or paying attention to details - can be extremely handy. But what happens when you don’t do things in moderation and feel compelled to do more and more, do everything right, and avoid mistakes?

We discussed in detail:

The coherence trap
Meta-awareness: awareness about awareness
Exposure exercises as awareness exercises
Motivational flexibility
Uncertainty workouts
Self-compassion practices
