Self-Help Book Club reminder
“Healthy striving is self-focused: “How can I improve?” Perfectionism is other-focused: “What will they think?” ~ Brené Brown
Suburban-Detroit readers: There’s still time to register for the November Self-Help Book Club discussion at Clawson’s Blair Memorial Library. I hope you’ll join me for a deep dive into the popular new guide, How to Be Enough: Seven Life-Changing Steps for Self-Critics, Overthinkers, and Perfectionists, by Dr. Ellen Hendriksen.
Does the fear of failing get in the way of your goals? Do you often worry that your best effort isn’t good enough? Do you overvalue the opinions of others? Dr. Hendriksen is a practicing psychotherapist who conquered her own perfectionism and helped many clients overcome theirs. Her guide is packed with practical tips to help you enjoy a more productive, fulfilling life.
I hope you’ll join me for the discussion at the Blair Memorial Library on Monday, November 24: 6:00PM to 7:30PM. (The program is free to the public.) Registration is required. For more information and to register, click here. Please feel free to share this invitation with your friends. ~CL
