In this episode of Keep the Flow, I dive into the tangled relationship between creativity and perfectionism.
From personal stories of wrestling with unfinished compositions to insights from artists like Bill Frisell and research on "perfectionistic strivings," I explore the fine line between pushing for excellence and getting stuck in self-doubt.
