Are you tired of performing? Exhausted from curating the “best version” of yourself—whether online or at church? In this honest and grace-filled episode of the Light + Life Podcast, Liza and Pastor Tim explore the pressure to perform, the pull to present a filtered life, and the freedom of following Jesus without hiding your mess.

This conversation pulls back the curtain on:

• The difference between the person and the persona
• Why social media feeds false expectations
• The mental and spiritual toll of living a lie
• The truth that Jesus meets you in your unfiltered, imperfect, and hurting self
• How churches can make room for real people with real struggles
• The grace that covers the parts of you you’re tempted to hide

You’ll hear stories of brokenness, leadership, therapy, and how spiritual maturity means collapsing the gap between who you appear to be and who you really are. Because Jesus already knows—and loves—you as you are.

📍 This week’s invitation:
✅ Stop editing.
✅ Show up honestly.
✅ Invite Jesus into the part of your story you’ve kept hidden.
✅ Make space for grace in your life and for others.

This isn’t about looking the part—it’s about living loved.
