🗒️ How to Plan Without Becoming a Perfectionist — with Lauren of Nine to Kind
This is probably my fave conversation I’ve ever had with a therapist.
Today Lauren Ruth Martin, LPC-MHSP is here to talk about the anti-perfectionist planners she created for her company Nine to Kind.
We discuss:
- Why most planners force us into a productivity mindset
- How gentle scaffolding can help us plan without perfectionism
- The therapeutic exercises Lauren included in her planners
- Why we prefer DBT to CBT personally
- How to redistribute your f*cks — instead of trying to care less
