Are you feeling stuck in your goals because everything has to be perfect? In this episode, I share my personal journey of grappling with perfectionism and its impact on my dreams. This episode dives into the external and internal manifestations of perfectionism. We'll emphasize the importance of recognizing and addressing perfectionism to avoid burnout and keep moving forward with your ambitions.

Key Takeaways:

  • Perfectionism can manifest as both positive traits like being ambitious and negative feelings like self-doubt and burnout.
  • Identifying perfectionist tendencies can help address and manage them effectively.
  • Shifting the focus from achieving perfection to creating value for even one person can help alleviate the pressure of perfectionism.

 

Hey, I’m Courtney - a mom, wife, Jesus-lovin’ dog owner who is trained in spiritual direction. I love being with people, working out, and spending time with Jesus. After giving birth during the craziness of 2020 (#iykyk), I found myself isolated, overwhelmed, and unsure of how to move forward. Turns out my old ways of operating (in faith, fitness, marriage, friendships, homemaking...ALL the things) weren’t sustainable within the context of motherhood. 

 

If you’re ready to come up for air, mama, know that you can experience rest *and* peace in your motherhood! Say goodbye to overwhelm and hello to balance and freedom. 

 

Go ahead and throw some ice in your tea or coffee (before it gets cold again 😉) and get ready to dive in.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
