In This Episode, I Share 3 Godly Ways to Break Free From the Trap of Perfectionism

I talk about how the "never enough" mindset often begins in childhood and why so many of us end up replaying it in our health, habits, relationships, and spiritual lives.
This is where God begins healing the root.

Scripture:
"His grace is sufficient for you, for His power is made perfect in weakness." — 2 Corinthians 12:9

2. Why performance will never give you peace

The enemy uses pressure to exhaust us, guilt us, and push us into all-or-nothing living.
But Jesus leads us with peace, not pressure.

Scriptures:
"Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." — Matthew 11:28
"You are complete in Him." — Colossians 2:10

3. How to trade perfection for faithfulness

This is the real shift: choosing progress over perfection and trusting God in the small, steady steps.
Not flawless eating.
Not perfect workouts.
Not rigid routines.
Just faithfulness.

Foundational Scripture:
"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves submit again to a yoke of bondage…" — Galatians 5:1

Sometimes your past pops up out of nowhere — the memory, the mistake, the moment you thought you'd already healed from — and the anxiety hits hard.

If you've ever felt blindsided by emotions you thought you'd outgrown, this episode will speak straight to your heart.

When your past triggers anxiety, it can feel confusing and overwhelming. But God's Word gives us clear direction for discerning His healing from the enemy's accusation.

In this episode, I'm sharing the 5 spiritual truths every Christian woman needs when old wounds resurface — including how to calm anxiety, how to recognize God's voice, and how to walk in your identity as a new creation in Christ.

This is part of our series: The Burdens God Never Meant for You to Carry.
And today we're uncovering a burden many carry silently: anxiety tied to the past.

• "My default is peace, not panic."
• "God reveals to heal — the enemy reminds to rewind."
• "I am not who I used to be."
• "I hear God's voice above all others."
• "I walk in the victory Jesus already won."

Romans 8:1 • 2 Corinthians 5:17 • Isaiah 26:3 • John 21:15–17 • Revelation 12:10

The world says, "Work harder, fix yourself, push through."
God says, "Be still. I will heal you."

If this episode brought peace to your heart, share it with a sister who needs this reminder.

I've never shared my testimony… until now.

There was a time in my life when everything fell apart—when I didn't know God yet, but He already knew me. And in that lowest place, He met me. That's where everything changed. 🙏

When you give your life to Jesus, brokenness becomes breakthrough, and breakthrough becomes blessing.

In this week's Strong. Confident. His. podcast episode, I'm sharing:

• What caused my brokenness
• The moment God used to lead me to Jesus
• How He turned my pain into purpose
• What He taught me that I can now share with you

If you've ever felt like there's a part of your past you can't get over, if you were hurt by someone you loved, or you just need the reminder that Jesus still wants to write the best story of your life—this is for you. 💗

Join me to learn how you can find Jesus too, or if you've already said yes to Him, listen to be reminded of His fingerprints all over your story.

God is good. Let's give Him the glory today for pulling us out of the pit of the life we knew before Him.

If this episode blessed you, would you share it with a friend who needs this reminder? Your share could be the encouragement she's been praying for. And if it spoke to your heart, please take a moment to leave a five-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify—it helps more sisters find hope, healing, and strength in Jesus. Thank you for being part of the Strong. Confident. His. community.

Remember, You are Strong. Confident. His.
