Many Christian women live exhausted, not because life is always hard, but because they're carrying things God never asked them to carry. Control can feel responsible, productive, and protective, but underneath it is often fear, anxiety, and a struggle to trust God fully. In this episode of Peace Over Perfection, we're talking about the hidden cost of control, why surrender feels so hard, and how real peace begins when we loosen our grip and trust God with what was never ours to manage. You will learn: Why control often disguises itself as responsibility How fear and anxiety fuel the need to manage everything What Proverbs 3:5-6 really teaches about trust Why trusting God doesn't mean doing nothing How to know your part and leave the outcome to Him Practical ways to surrender control daily and find peace If you've been mentally exhausted, overthinking everything, or trying to hold life together on your own, this episode will remind you that peace is found in trusting God, not controlling outcomes.
