Meet Your Guide

My name is Melissa Gratias, and I am a perfectionist. I graduated college with honors, earned masters and doctoral degrees, and married a wonderful man. When I became a mother in my late 20s, my need to do everything perfectly blew up like Mentos dropped into a bottle of Diet Coke. All of a sudden, I had a child that I loved with all my soul. I wanted to be the perfect mom for her.

As she grew (and her brother joined the family), I lay awake ruminating on how I could have said this thing better or done that thing differently. I felt that every mistake was going to mess her up for the rest of her life.

Then, the unthinkable happened. My daughter started to become a perfectionist, too. She overthought homework assignments, missed deadlines, and overcomplicated simple projects in the name of perfection. She suffered, and I blamed myself for providing a poor example of how to live.

This course is something I wish I’d had when my kids were younger! In the course, you will first take time for introspection and self-discovery. Then, you will engage your young learning partner to play games, enjoy poems, and laugh your way to a better life that is happily “good enough.”
