The Redeemed Perfectionist | Christian Perfectionism, Identity in Christ, People Pleasing
I help Christian women break up with perfectionism and discover the life-changing power of God’s grace.
Let’s face it: You’ve tried to meet every expectation 😞 — yours, others', even God's. But you're exhausted, overthinking everything, and wondering if you’ll ever be “enough." 😩 Every perfectionist knows the weight of these struggles.
But what if God’s heart for you is different than you think? 🥰
Welcome to The Redeemed Perfectionist—the podcast that helps you:
🦋 Stop striving and start living in joy!
🤗 Live as a daughter who is fully accepted in your perfectly imperfect condition.
😵💫 Experience God's love like never before.
Whether you’ve been a Christian for years or are just beginning your faith journey, this podcast offers practical insights and wisdom to help you break free from the prison of perfectionism.
In each episode, I’ll help you:
✨Let go of the pressure to be perfect.
✨Draw near to God and learn to trust His love for you.
✨End the exhaustion of striving for God’s acceptance.

Let me let you in on a little secret about YOU! Did you know that there are likely quadrillions or more unique potential combinations of genetic material that could have resulted in someone other than you?!
