MEGHAN MARKLE DISREGARDS THE COMPULSION TO BE PERFECT 

Interacting with Trudeau, Meghan Markle reflected on how difficult it becomes to
essay the role of a wife and daughter while being a public figure. For the
unversed, Trudeau is the wife of Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The
Duchess also mentioned the enormous guilt that women generally undergo for not
being able to live up to the expectations and standards set by society. 



To lay more emphasis on the topic, the former American actress recited a poem
that read, “When her manic compulsion to be perfect vaporizes, and when her
obsession to be voted popular, eviscerates.”

The author of the renowned book, A Radical Awakening: Turn Pain Into Power,
Embrace Your Truth, Live Free, Dr. Shefali Tsabary, agreed with the thought
process of the Sussex [https://sussexroyal.com/] royal. Tsabary reflected on how
women are steering towards a toxic life due to their misconceptions about
achieving perfectionism.

She claimed that modern women’s claim of being able to do anything and
everything is nothing but toxic. The author believes that females are falling
into misguided beliefs and they need to let go of the idea of perfection. “The
pendulum swings the other way to great self-abnegation, loathing, and shame.
That’s the other side of that pendulum,” Dr. Shefali Tsabary added while
speaking on the podcast.
