In this episode, we talk about  how perfectionism is also a growing epidemic in the dance world. Unfortunately, the lack of help from the dance industry for dancers has led to dancers to be be influenced by depression, anxiety, anorexia, bulimia and even suicide. We consider why dancers are generally perfectionists in the first place. We also discuss the ways to fight back the idea of perfectionism and develop productive coping skills– the only way to grow as an healthy artist is to accept your flaws and mistakes and learn from them rather than beating yourself up for it.
