Loving Wellness

50. Turning Perfectionism Into Your Superpower with Katherine Morgan Schafler, LMHC


Listen Later

In today's episode of Loving Wellness, I am joined by the author of The Perfectionist's Guide to Losing Control, Katherine Morgan Schafler. Katherine is a psychotherapist, writer and speaker based in New York City. Formerly an on-site therapist at Google, she earned her degrees and training at UC Berkeley and Columbia University, with post-graduate certification from the Association for Spirituality and Psychotherapy. If you have ever identified as a perfectionist, this episode is a must-listen!


In the episode, we chat about:

  • Why perfectionism isn’t just wanting everything to be perfect all the time
  • The difference between healthy and unhealthy perfectionists
  • The history of perfectionism & why we've pathologized perfectionism as a society
  • How to use your perfectionism as your power
  • Questions to ask yourself to know if your perfectionism is getting in the way of your mental well-being
  • Tangible tools to help you stop overthinking and start living in the present moment
  • How to actually improve your self worth
  • A unique perspective on the link between perfectionism and eating disorders
  • How to honor and make amends to our bodies as women
  • ...and so much more!
