Episode 15 // I think it is human nature that we want things to be perfect. We want to be a perfect wife. We long for the perfect marriage.
And then what happens? We set unrealistic expectations of ourselves. We pour our energy into the tasks, projects, and relationships in front of us, trying to make everything perfect... and it never is. It can't be!
If you've wound up feeling like a failure because things aren't perfect, you're not alone. With this unrealistic and unbiblical goal in our hearts, we wind up overwhelmed and disappointed. 
So many of us are perfectionists. And we pay the price for it with our mental health, our emotions, and the loss of time and energy for our most important people. 
If perfectionism is something that you have struggled with, join me in today's episode. I'll share some of my journey dealing with the temptation of perfectionism and we'll look at some practical strategies that we can take when that temptation pops up.
