Perfectionism, Parenting & the Stories We Tell Ourselves with Kati Morton (LMFT, Best Selling Author, and Media Personality)

Perfectionism, Parenting & the Stories We Tell Ourselves with Kati Morton (LMFT, Best Selling Author, and Media Personality)

What if the way we talk to ourselves is shaping our kids, our relationships, and our entire nervous system?

In this powerful and deeply human episode of EmotionAL Support, I sit down with licensed therapist, author, and mental health educator Kati Morton to talk about the conversations we don’t have enough — perfectionism, parenting through mistakes, staying in unhealthy relationships, and why kids often blame themselves for things that were never their fault.

Kati breaks down mental health in a way that feels accessible, honest, and deeply relatable — from why perfectionism fuels negative self-talk, to how our physical and emotional health are inseparable, to the importance of letting children fail so they can actually grow.

We also dive into:
• Why sharing personal stories helps heal collective shame
• How to communicate big, hard things (like divorce) to kids
• The impact of words, labels, and apologizing as a parent
• Why women feel pressure to constantly prove their worth
• And how real emotional support from friends can change everything

This episode isn’t about having it all figured out — it’s about showing up human, breaking unhealthy patterns, and learning how to talk about emotions in a way that actually helps.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “doing it right,” this conversation is for you.
