98. How to Strive for Excellence Without Being a Perfectionist

<p dir="ltr">Are you a perfectionist? Do you work with perfectionist dancers? I was a perfectionist dancer and a coach, but now I’m a recovering perfectionist. Perfectionism is still a regular battle for me, and it’s really common in our dance industry. Dancers are trained to focus on the most minute details. A pinky finger out of place could change the results of a competition - sometimes literally, and sometimes it just feels that way. In this episode, I’ll share the root cause of perfectionism, help you recognize your perfectionist dancers and learn how to support them so they can be the best possible dancer. I hope this episode gives you a way to talk about this with your dancers and help them overcome perfectionism.</p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Resources:</strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Episode Website: <a href= "https://chelseapierotti.com/98">https://chelseapierotti.com/98</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Submit a question to be answered on the show: <a href= "http://www.speakpipe.com/passionfordance">www.speakpipe.com/passionfordance</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Join my email list here: <a href= "http://www.chelseapierotti.com/email">www.chelseapierotti.com/email</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Be sure to visit me on Instagram <a href= "https://instagram.com/dr.chelsea.pierotti">@dr.chelsea.pierotti</a> for more mental skills advice for dancers</p> <p dir="ltr">Word of mouth is still the best way the show can grow!
