Escaping Perfectionism: Rodney and Carol Holmstrom's Journey to Freedom

God doesn't want us to strive for perfection, he just wants us to move into a space of trying to be in a space of excellence.
Ever felt the weight of needing to be perfect? In this episode of 'Hope in Recovery', Rodney and Carol Holmstrom tackle the suffocating grip of perfectionism. Sharing their personal stories, they reveal how striving for flawlessness can stifle our progress and harm our relationships. Rodney, who once measured his worth by his productivity, found peace through Celebrate Recovery, learning that God values excellence over perfection.
Carol's journey was different but equally impactful; she hid behind an emotional barrier, distancing herself from meaningful connections. Their combined experiences offer valuable lessons on the power of self-acceptance and the freedom that comes from surrendering control. This episode is a heartfelt conversation about breaking free from perfectionism's chains and finding true healing through faith and community support. Tune in for a dose of hope and practical wisdom.
