The Spectrum of Perfectionism

Art of Homeschooling Podcast - A podcast by Jean Miller - Mondays

EP164: As I laughed along with Sarah from our team about her son's unique choice of black and green for a window star, I realized how perfectionism sneaks into our homeschooling lives in the most unexpected ways. This episode peels back the layers of perfectionism, exploring its spectrum from the intense pressure for the unattainable to the immobilizing fear of failure while illuminating the sweet spot where joy meets high standards. Join us as we guide you through recognizing your place on the perfectionism spectrum and share insights on tailoring your homeschooling approach to foster a more harmonious and creative learning environment.Weaving personal anecdotes with practical advice, this episode is not just about understanding perfectionism but also embracing the perfectly imperfect journey of homeschooling. Whether you're struggling with your own perfectionist tendencies or encouraging your child's unique expressions, we invite you to discover the beauty and meaning in letting go of the unachievable and relishing the process.
