Breaking up with perfect
Book Description
Many women find themselves trapped in an exhausting cycle, constantly striving for an impossible standard that leaves them feeling depleted and inadequate. Amy Carroll understands this struggle intimately and offers a compassionate path toward freedom from perfectionism's relentless demands.
In this thoughtful exploration, Carroll addresses two common patterns that emerge from perfectionist thinking: the "good girl" who maintains a flawless exterior while struggling internally, and the woman who abandons the pursuit entirely, believing that imperfection means failure. Both approaches, she reveals, stem from fundamental misunderstandings about our worth and purpose.
Drawing from biblical wisdom and personal experience, Carroll guides readers through a process of examining the beliefs that drive perfectionist behavior. She demonstrates how misconceptions about divine expectations and personal value create unnecessary stress and anxiety. Through careful reflection, readers learn to replace these limiting thoughts with affirming truths that acknowledge human imperfection while affirming unconditional love and acceptance.
The book combines spiritual insight with practical application, offering transformation exercises that readers can integrate into their daily routines. Carroll's approach is both relatable and actionable, providing concrete tools for breaking free from perfectionism's grip.
For women seeking to embrace their authentic selves while deepening their spiritual journey, this guide offers hope and practical wisdom for living with greater peace, confidence, and genuine fulfillment.
