 These week on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we are talking about Breaking Free from Perfection. 

Many of us have the tendency to be perfectionistic. I know it's something that I struggled with my whole life and I talk to so many teen girls who struggle with it as well. 

Perfectionism can feel like it's suffocating us. It wears away your peace and robs you of joy. Perfectionism also keeps you from being the best version of you. 

When we focus so much on ourselves and the need to be perfect, we push God away and basically are saying that we don’t need Him, because we have this on our own.

Perfection leads to anxiety and frustration, but God wants you free.

Perfection leads you to feeling like you aren’t valuable or that you don’t measure up when you mess us. God tells us that we are valuable, not based on what we have or haven’t done, but based on what Jesus has done for us.

Perfectionism is rooted in fear.

Fear of rejection
Fear of acceptance
Fear of getting something wrong
Fear of someone seeing the real you

Check out this week's podcast episode to learn how you can break free from perfection!
