The Perfectionist in the Room

All month long, in the private FB Group for TalkBox.Mom customers, I have been talking about combatting negative self-talk. On Thursday’s private FB Live, I broke down the negative self-talk you experience if you’re a Perfectionist. So, if you have a Perfectionist in your family or you’re the Perfectionist in the room read on.

I want you to think back to when you began your first box. How did it feel when you spoke your first phrase? Maybe, the Perfectionist in the room is your child. How did your child feel when you encouraged him or her to speak in your foreign language for the first time?

Did you expect to have all the grammar and grammatical concepts perfect? Did you remember everything you wanted to say? After you or your child spoke, did you find yourself picking apart everything you said or they said that could have been better? If so, you’re a Perfectionist and Thursday’s private FB training is the perfect one for you. So, if you didn’t get the chance to join us live, head on over to the private FB group and watch the training now! You’ll learn how to overcome fear and replace it with the truth, how to call out negative thoughts, how to focus on the positives and talk positively to yourself.

And because technology doesn’t subscribe to perfectionism, I experienced some technical difficulties so the private training is in two parts: Part One & Part Two. Don’t miss out, view the training now!
