Sunday Coffee: Perfectionism

Why is this a tool of oppression?

I was scrolling on social media when I came across this quote.

“Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor, the enemy of the people. It will keep you cramped and insane your whole life.” Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

It landed hard.

This Sunday at coffee, I am chatting about how perfectionism and diabetes dance to the music that diet culture picked.

Sunday Coffee is one of three features for paid subscribers. It is a causal conversation about topics in diabetes care that are often missing from traditional medical care. Subscribers get access to the 31-day self-care journal and the Nutrition 101 program.

The goal of No Weight Loss Required is to help you heal your relationship with food so you can untangle the many ways diet culture has slipped into diabetes care and how you can stop using it as a measure of health.
