Perfectionism might seem like your trusty shield, but what if it's just a mask hiding fear? In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, Lee Davy takes you on a journey through the tangled web of perfectionism and its unexpected ties to alcohol reliance. Lee shares his own story of growing up with conditional love, where achievement felt like the only way to earn worth.
