DAY 24 Uncaping, Unmasking, Unhiding | Perfectionism, Alignment, and the Pursuit of Love

If perfectionism is the enemy of happiness, why are so many
striving for it?!? 


WHEW!!!  That’s a loaded question, right?  But the
truth is none of us wants to be perfect because perfectionism is
too heavy a burden to bear. What we really want is to be LOVED,
ACCEPTED, and fully ALIGNED with who we were created to be. 


In today’s episode, Shirl and Natty share pieces of their journey
to how perfectionism was ingrained in their lives from childhood
and how they escaped it.


Press play to hear what they have to say and be sure to listen
til the end for a POWERFUL reflection question that will help you
on your journey to healng. And be sure to joiin us in the
Shades of Strong Facebook Community to share
