Is this dream going to be worth the effort?
Maybe you’ve spent hours designing Canva graphics, rewriting emails, or obsessing over what people might think without ever taking a real step forward. You wonder if your dream is even valid or if you just aren't cut out for this. The truth is, you are not failing. You are distracted. And in this episode, we are naming the lies that are stealing your focus from what God is calling you to do.
These three lies: perfectionism, reputation, and platform will not just delay your dream. They will discourage you from ever starting. But God has better for you. He's calling you into freedom from the pressure you have put on yourself so you can refocus on His purposes for your life.
In this episode you'll learn:
🎯 What is really driving your perfectionism and how to break free
🙈 Why playing small protects your comfort but sidelines your calling
🕯️ How quiet obedience lays the groundwork for lasting influence
This episode is for the woman who is tired of overthinking and ready to take faithful steps forward. You will also hear about Dreamers Unleashed, my group coaching course that helps you overcome perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and fear so you can walk in your God-given identity and purpose.
Whether you are just dreaming or starting to move, this episode will remind you of what is true: God doesn't need your polish or popularity. He has already called you, and He will equip you as you go.
If one of these lies has been loud in your life, I would love to hear from you. DM me on Instagram or email me from the website and be sure to join the Dreamers Unleashed waitlist at merrittonsa.com/impostersyndrome. We are doing this together.
Throughout this month, we are exploring how to keep our focus on Christ amid distractions and setbacks. So press play and let's get started.
