EP 38 – Perfectionism: The Thief of Joy with Ardelle Viau
Our guest on the show today is a recovering perfectionist. She’s a nutritionist, and like myself and so many others in the industry always felt the pressure to be a role model for health – eat impeccably, exercise regularly, maintain an “ideal” weight. Like so many of us in this industry, we feel the need to live a life of perfection in order to inspire our clients.
In our interview Ardelle will share how a traumatic accident forced her out of perfectionism and into self-compassion and how this transformed her relationship with herself and her career.
Ardelle talks about how we need not feel ashamed by chronic pain or a health condition. Rather how we can view our symptoms as reminders to return to self-care.
She shares how we can reclaim our joy and confidence and live the life of our dreams by healing our relationship to our body.
