Perfectionism Called—Recovery’s Got Trust Issues Now
Mallary Tenore Tarpley just handed perfectionism a breakup note in her new book, embracing the gloriously messy 'middle place' between sickness and health. She's learned to 'reject perfectionism' and 'accept her slip-ups,' proving recovery isn’t a straight line but a scenic detour full of potholes. So if your wellness journey looks more like a toddler’s crayon masterpiece than a Mona Lisa, congrats, you’re Tarpley-approved officially imperfect.
