The Hidden Identity Crisis Behind Perfectionism (Pt 1/2) | 025

April Farlow Resources:InstagramFacebookWebsiteBook:  Pieces of You Yorkshire PublishingLydia's PlaceMy guest, leadership trainer, speaker, and author April Farlow, joins me for a powerful conversation about how the beliefs we carry about ourselves shape the way we show up in our faith, our relationships, and our calling.Together we unpack why so many successful women quietly wrestle with questions like:• Who did God really create me to be? • Why do I feel like I'm constantly measuring myself against everyone else? • Why is my inner voice so much harsher than the way I speak to others?Through stories, personal experiences, and practical insights, we explore how comparison, expectations, and internal narratives can distort our understanding of who we are in Christ.April also shares a revealing exercise she once did with a group of accomplished women that exposed the powerful gap between how we see ourselves and how we see others—and what that reveals about the lies many of us have unknowingly believed for years.If you've ever felt caught between who you think you should be and who God actually created you to be, this conversation will help you begin untangling those voices and rediscovering the freedom that comes from living out of your true identity.In this episode, we discuss:• Why perfectionism often masks a deeper identity struggle • The internal narratives that shape how we see ourselves • How comparison fuels insecurity and self-criticism • The difference between performing for worth and living from identity • Practical ways to begin rediscovering who God created you to beThis is Part 1 of my conversation with April. In the next episode, we’ll go deeper into the beliefs, fears, and identity fractures that often drive perfectionism—and how God begins to heal them.🌐 Connect with Lenee' Pezzano and The Redeemed Perfectionist        👥 Find Your People -- Join The Redeemed Perfectionist Facebook         Community: The Redeemed Perfectionist | Facebook        📖 Embrace Grace: Discover You Will Make Mistakes                https://amzn.to/4hKwhpW         🔗 Start Your Journey – Explore Resources & More          https://www.leneepezzano.com/         📱 Let's Connect - Follow along on Instagram:         https://www.instagram.com/leneepezzano/        📞Ask Lenee' Anything!: https://www.speakpipe.com/LeneePezzano         💰Show support:  The Redeemed Perfectionist | Where Grace Meets Grit: Healing the Perfectionist Heart | Patreon
