On today’s episode of the Journeywomen podcast, I’m chatting with my friends Laura Wifler and Emily Jensen about perfectionism. If you know Laura and Emily of the Risen Motherhood podcast, it’s no surprise that this conversation really helped me apply the realities of the gospel to my performance-oriented, perfectionistic self.  So you’ll know them a little better, Emily Jensen and Laura Wifler are the co-founders of the Risen Motherhood ministry, and co-hosts of the weekly podcast. As sisters-in-law, Emily and Laura both live in central Iowa with their families. Their first co-written book, Risen Motherhood, releases September 3rd and is available anywhere books are sold and we highly recommend checking it out!   SHOP JOURNEYWOMEN SHIRTS   RESOURCES Gospel Fluency by Jeff Vanderstelt A Gospel Primer by Milton Vincent Risen Motherhood by Emily Jensen & Laura Wifler  Church Series    CONNECT WITH RISEN MOTHERHOOD Website Facebook Instagram   SCRIPTURE REFERENCES 1 Peter 2:22 1 Peter 1:19-25 Jude 1:24 1 Corinthians 2 Psalms 127  Matthew 5   DISCUSSION QUESTIONS • What are some areas in your life where you don’t feel like you are enough?  • Read 1 Peter 1:15-25.
