Book Discussion: The Perfectionist's Guide to Losing Control

Hey everyone,
Join us for our next casual book club gathering! We read a mix of fiction and non-fiction throughout the year, meeting every other month. Our book discussions are focused on the books themselves and aren't religious in nature, and the attendees are also a mix of believers and non-believers.
NEXT UP:
Wednesday, July 16, 2025 — 7 PM

Location: Outdoor Restaurant on Lake Union (disclosed once you sign RSVP)
Reading: The Perfectionist’s Guide to Losing Control by Katherine Morgan Schafler


The Perfectionist’s Guide to Losing Control by Katherine Morgan Schafler
What if perfectionism isn’t your problem—but your power? In this compassionate and empowering book, psychotherapist Katherine Morgan Schafler invites high-achieving women to stop trying to “fix” their perfectionism and start reframing it as a strength. Through five distinct perfectionist types, she shows how to turn pressure into purpose, ambition into peace, and control into confidence.


Let go of the need to be flawless—and learn to love the way you strive.


Quote Highlight:

“You don’t have to stop being a perfectionist. You just have to stop trying to be perfect at being human.”

We like to mix up our meeting spots in Seattle, enjoying good company over dinner, coffee, or in other casual settings like a rooftop or park. It’s a low-pressure way to enjoy reading and connect with others. Feel free to come share your perspective!

For book discussions, I will be sending you a different RSVP link to get all of the details and meeting reminders.
See you there!
