Episode 8: I'll Be Emotionally Perfect for Christmas with Deanna Harris

Melissa Harris Season 1 Episode 8

In our culture,  perfectionism is often seen as a desirable trait. Because of this, most of us have crafted an emotionally guarded facade. We smile when we feel like crying. We laugh when we feel like screaming. And even when our relatives say hurtful things at the holidays, we curate our emotions so that we can appear in control. But emotional masking causes us to live inauthentically and can even lead to physical illness. In this episode with Deanna Harris, we take a humorous look at how we can embrace vulnerability, learn to voice our feelings, and speak our truths.
