Episode 5: Perfection Or Perfectionism?

  • Summary

  • In this episode, Jenny and Lee discuss the concept of perfectionism and how it can be toxic and destructive.

    They explore the difference between striving for perfection and embracing the process of becoming. They emphasize the importance of aligning our goals and standards with the teachings of Jesus Christ and relying on His grace.

    They also discuss the negative effects of perfectionism, such as isolation and shame, and the power of vulnerability and community.

    Jenny and Lee leave you with an invitation to reevaluate your perspective on perfection and focus on loving God and others as you strive for wholeness in your own life here in mortality, and in the life to come.
