Perfectionism isn’t one-size-fits-all. It shows up in ways you may not even realize. In this episode, I sit down with psychotherapist and author Katherine Morgan Schafler to talk about how perfectionism fuels growth instead of stress. Katherine shares the five types of perfectionists, how to identify your own patterns, and why perfectionism without boundaries often turns destructive. We also dive into how to channel perfectionist tendencies into self-awareness, resilience, and real power rather than burnout or fear. Tune in to discover how to reframe perfectionism not as a flaw to fix, but as a signal of your drive and potential.

In This Episode You Will Learn

  • PERFECTIONISM is not a flaw but a POWER with the right boundaries.

  • The DIFFERENCE between manipulation and influence.

  • The 3 STEP SELF-COMPASSION framework that builds resilience and confidence.

  • Why PERFECTIONISM in men is celebrated but in women criticized.

  • Why asking for HELP is actually a SIGN OF DETERMINATION.

  • How REFRAMING control shifts your approach to goals.

  • The FIVE TYPES of perfectionists and how each one shows up in life and work.
