Why do self-improvement junkies find self-compassion difficult? The guys at bulletproofmusician.com say it really well: "It's a strategy that feels wrong, Perhaps because it sounds vaguely like giving ourselves and easy out for mistakes, and thereby lowering our standards" And it's this tension that Carly and Kelly want to talk about today. Because sometimes, we need to take a break from constant self-improvement and striving, and just be a bit lazy! Especially because, as Carly will share, humans are specifically engineered for laziness. For more info on Kelly and Carly, and to see any links or resources mentioned in today’s episode, head over to www.straightandcurly.com.
