About Your Host

Michaela Thomas is a Clinical Psychologist and expert in perfectionism, compassion, and couples.

She is also a mum of two young children and runs her own psychology business serving clients with therapy, coaching, retreats, and corporate talks.

Michaela’s superpower of empathetic and compassionate connection with others is also what made her vulnerable to burnout when working in the NHS, before becoming an entrepreneur.

Through the use of compassion practices, Michaela has now built a life which has space for her too, not just for those she serves, with a sustainable pace in her business.

Embracing imperfection and finding progress over perfection has landed Michaela a bestselling book, a successful podcast, and a sought-after private practice - establishing that it is possible to follow your passion and ambition, without drowning in it.
