Ep. 61 The Arm Wrestling Match: Letting Go of Perfectionism
“Key Takeaways” from this episode: personal trainer for thought patterns, control habits, perfectionism, surrender, worship, neuroscience, faith, daily life, mental health, personal growth, prayer
Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed by the need to control every aspect of your life? Do perfectionism and the pressure to achieve leave you exhausted and unfulfilled? In this episode, gear up for the internal battle many of us face between trying to control everything and the liberating act of surrendering to God.
Using the metaphor of arm wrestling, we chat about how the struggle can drain your energy and rob you of peace. Surrendering isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s actually a powerful step towards finding true peace and purpose. With insights from neuroscience and personal experiences, you’ll learn practical ways to make quiet time with God a necessity, not just a luxury.
You’ll discover how worship can shift your mindset, helping you focus on God instead of your problems. Plus, there’s a fun practice I got from another mama called the ‘rose and thorn’ exercise that can train your brain to look for the good even when times are tough.
This episode is here to encourage you to embrace your brokenness and trust in God’s plan, and to remind you that even in your struggles, there’s a path to peace. You’ll pick up valuable tools to let go of control and align yourself with God’s purpose, leading to a more fulfilling life.
So, come hang out for this much-needed conversation and take that first step towards surrendering and embracing the peace that comes from trusting God. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let’s explore how faith and personal growth can help you be more “fit” for your daily life!
