"The enemy takes a nugget of truth and turns it into a whole lie—but God brings us back to who we really are in Him."
What if you stopped trying to earn an award that doesn’t even exist? Carol, Tricia, and Kelly get real about the pressure to perform, dealing perfectionism, mental health, and the beauty of humility. This episode has a lot of honesty, laughter, and a whole bunch of Jesus, the ladies talk through how to let go of unrealistic expectations and lean fully into God’s grace. If you’ve ever wrestled with not feeling “good enough,” this conversation is the reminder your heart needs: God didn’t ask you to be perfect—He asked you to be His.
True humility brings peace – Letting go of control and trusting God with the outcome frees us from the anxiety of trying to be “good enough.”
Obedience > overcommitment – Just because you can do something doesn’t mean God asked you to.
Jesus is greater than mental health – Therapy and self-awareness are helpful, but ultimate healing and identity are found in Christ alone.
