Wiggle Talk - A Podcast For Parents

• Is The Pressure To Be Perfect Coming From Us?

  Is your child afraid to make a mistake? Or insists on starting over until something is “just right”? Perfectionism can show up earlier than you think - and while wanting to do well is a good thing, it can easily tip into something that holds kids back. In this episode of Wiggle Talk, we’re joined by Dr Thomas Curran, psychologist and professor at the London School of Economics, to unpack how perfectionism develops in children, what warning signs to look out for, and how we can help our little ones build confidence in who they are - not just what they achieve.
