Hey y'all,

In facing off with my inner critic—that part of me that says “you’re not ____ enough” or “you’re not worthy”—I have found that my greatest weapon is gratitude.

For me, the practice is less about "doing" a thing (ie: positive affirmations), and more about "being with".

When I sit with my judgmental self, I can bear witness to the longing that is underneath the mean thoughts. I ask “is that true?” about the stories I tell myself about myself. And then I am able to discern the truth from the lies and see myself more clearly.

That’s when gratitude emerges.

Gratitude reminds me that I am enough, that I have enough, that there is enough to go around.

From that place, I remember that “I am already”—that nothing more is needed for my existence, that I deserve to be well and X just because I am.

From this place of knowing, I can dig deeper into my relationship with scarcity. 

Join me on Monday for PERFECTIONISTS ANONYMOUS, where we'll come together to unlearn scarcity and unhook ourselves from perfectionism. 

In this 5 day program, we are confronting this addiction and calling back our power. Through embodied practice, courageous conversation and applied action, we will explore perfectionism as addiction, divesting from control and the price of perfectionism.

Here’s what you can expect: 

  • Five virtual community coaching calls to support our inquiry and recovery. Calls are scheduled Monday - Thursday at 3 EST/12 PST with one follow up call two weeks later! 

  • Daily recovery toolkit to arrive in your inbox each morning. Recovery toolkit includes daily journaling prompts, transformational tools and resources and inspirational quotes.  

  • Embodied practice. A recorded practice led by Kerri to help you regulate yourself and remember who you are beyond perfectionism and other toxic patterns of control.  

Are you in, ?
