Jill this is amazing. What incredible advice. My partner is a total perfectionist. He has recently been having panic attacks and isn't in the best of places. We are working through things. I read this sentence to him and it really hit home. He needs to stop polishing his star and hang it up for the world to see!
Thank you for this and for sharing your story. And congratulations on being such a succesful intern - Although I would have always suspected as such :-)
