Episode 3409:
Rachel Trotta challenges the notion of perfectionism in health and fitness, emphasizing that striving for perfection often leads to self-sabotage and burnout.

“The goal is to get out of the ‘beat-yourself-up’ and ‘buckle-down’ downward spiral, and into a successful, achieving upward cycle.”
