You're right, and I agree, this part is good. The issue is that she is in a place where almost nothing she does is good enough for her. Even compliments are seldom accepted. There's always an excuse of why it wasn't good enough. She's not happy with her.

It's an issue that I'm finding she has to work through for herself.

I hope she does. (already) grin
