Pobody’s nerfect, but many of us wish we were. At its best, perfectionism can lend itself to high levels of achievement and success. At its worst (and more often than not), perfectionism can prevent you from taking risks for fear of failure or feeling like no matter what you do, you’ll never be good enough. Jennifer Kemp is a clinical psychologist who has dedicated her career to working with individuals with perfectionism and problems associated with perfectionism including anxiety, depression, body-image and eating disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. On this episode of POTC, Jennifer and Debbie discuss perfectionism, what it looks like, and strategies you can use to target perfectionistic behaviors. Join us in this episode to learn about the cost of perfectionism in relationships, emotional discomfort underlying perfectionism, and more! . . . . #booklovers #trauma #selfcompassion #mentalhealthmatters #brave #courage #socialanxiety #podcastersofinstagram #podcasts #podcastlife #mentalhealth #mindfulness #values #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy #stressreduction #coping #anxiety #psychology #psychologistsofinstagram #psychologyofhappiness #happylife #happiness #mindfulmoments #stress #pressure

According to the Alcohol and Drug Foundation, psychedelics are a class of psychoactive substances that cause changes in perception, mood, and cognitive processes. Though psychedelics include a wide variety of natural and lab-made substances, they all have one thing in common. All psychedelic drugs have been illegal in the U.S. since the Psychotropic Substances Act of 1978. However, in recent years, there’s been a major uptick in research on psychedelics for therapeutic use. Brian Pilecki and Nathan Gates are experts in the use of psychedelics for mental health treatment. On this episode of POTC, they join Jill for a discussion about the future of psychedelics in therapy. Listen into this episode today to learn about common misconceptions and data-based risks and benefits of psychedelics today! . . . . #booklovers #trauma #selfcompassion #mentalhealthmatters #brave #courage #socialanxiety #podcastersofinstagram #podcasts #podcastlife #mentalhealth #mindfulness #values #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy #stressreduction #coping #anxiety #psychology #psychologistsofinstagram #psychologyofhappiness #happylife #happiness #mindfulmoments #stress #pressure
Suffering plays a deep role in our lives. If we seek lives of meaning and significance, full with rich relationships and values-consistent pursuits, we inevitably choose pain.

Check out this week to learn more about why humans so frequently choose pain, how suffering and meaning are connected, and much more! . . . . #booklovers #trauma #selfcompassion #mentalhealthmatters #brave #courage #socialanxiety #podcastersofinstagram #podcasts #podcastlife #mentalhealth #mindfulness #values #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy #stressreduction #coping #anxiety #psychology #psychologistsofinstagram #psychologyofhappiness #happylife #happiness #mindfulmoments #stress #pressure
It is a well known fact that pain and pleasure are among the most influential motivators of behavior. However, it is lesser known why people make choices they know will result in painful experiences. Perhaps even more curious is why people seem to experience pleasure in making those choices and having those painful experiences. Though this phenomenon is evidenced in a broad spectrum of domains ranging from mental health disorders (e.g., disordered eating) to BDSM to the enjoyment of spicy foods, it is rarely discussed and not well understood. Paul Bloom, author of The Sweet Spot, is a world-renowned researcher on the psychology of morality, identity, and pleasure. In this episode, he and Diana discuss the pleasures of suffering and the intersection of meaning and pain. Join us in this episode to learn more about why humans so frequently choose pain, how suffering and meaning are connected, and much more! . . . . #booklovers #trauma #selfcompassion #mentalhealthmatters #brave #courage #socialanxiety #podcastersofinstagram #podcasts #podcastlife #mentalhealth #mindfulness #values #acceptanceandcommitmenttherapy #stressreduction #coping #anxiety #psychology #psychologistsofinstagram #psychologyofhappiness #happylife #happiness #mindfulmoments #stress #pressure
