EPISODE 15: When Good is Good Enough

Are you tired of perfectionism? So are we. This week VERVE founder & Chief Feminist Operative, Anna Quick- Palmer, read us her blog entitled ‘When Good is Good Enough’. Afterward, Anna & Erin, our Chief Managing Feminist, discuss what it means to finally let go of self-inflicted expectations by demanding that ‘good’ is good enough for them. Acknowledging this as a benefit of white privilege, they explore what good enough means for toxic masculinity, how money can’t buy perfectionism, and whether or not multitasking is a gendered issue. If you want to find out how to be Good Enough by creating your own reality in a world where good enough, is not good enough- listen to this podcast.
