ABOUT THIS CONVERSATION: 

Episode #11 ‘Perfectionism’ is OUT NOW!

Both of us struggled with perfectionism, but something profound began to shift after our homecoming to Christ. Over time, the pressure for our lives, relationships, and creative endeavors to fit a certain image began to fade. The desire to please others gradually took a back seat, replaced by a deeper longing to please God.

We’re sharing our journeys—from restlessness, control, and exhaustion to the peace we now experience through Christ’s transformation. Our walks have been marked by learning more about God’s character and developing a growing trust in the goodness and faithfulness of His plan for our lives.

In our conversation, we explore the subtle differences between striving in the world and striving in Christ—a different kind of striving that’s part of our spiritual maturation.

A significant part of our journey is understanding the divine callings God has placed on our hearts, and one thing has become clear to us:

If we don’t need God for the things that matter most to us, we’re likely not pursuing what He’s truly called us to do. And God undoubtedly equips those who respond to His calling.

Here’s what we cover:

• Understanding perfectionism: worldly vs. Christ's perspective
• Exploring the spiritual and psychological aspects of perfectionism
• The role of pride and self-perception in perfectionism
• Our journeys from restlessness and control to peace through Christ’s transformative work
• Liberation from perfectionism as a daily choice through Christ, not by our own efforts
• Lessons from Martha & Mary: choosing presence over perfection
• Embracing divine calling and maturation of our creativity in Christ
• Overcoming fear in creativity: a fresh perspective
• Practical steps for meaningful contribution
