Welcome to the Storytellers Live podcast where everyday women share stories of God's love.

I'm Robin and I'm here with Katie and Lindy and today we bring you another story from a live gathering.

You'll be able to tell that it's live because it was in my backyard and Vestavia. And there were geese honking. We think we've

removed most of it, but not all of it. So enjoy the sounds of nature. And at that live gathering,

we had Rachel and we titled her story, Confessions of Perfectionist, because it is all about

how we as women just really strive to make our life look like it is absolutely perfect.

I really loved how she was so vulnerable and how she shared the struggle she had with perfectionism

and the anxiety that it brought her because of that.

And I loved how she tied it at the end to God's word.

So you're going to hear that.

Here she is.

Before Rachel's story, we wanted to give you a quick reminder of three ways that you can support Storytellers Live.

Number one is through Venmo.

We are now accepting donations at Storytellers Live podcast.

Number two is our Patreon community.

You can join for five or $10 a month and you receive extra content, a Bible study that

goes along with our episodes, and then we actually post extra stories and a story within the

story, which is more information about our storyteller. And then lastly, you can purchase Discover

Your Story, which is an eight-week Bible study that's appropriate for small groups

or personal study for $15 on our website at storytellerslive.org. Thank you so much for supporting

storytellers' live. We could not do this without you. Enjoy Rachel's story.

Hey, y'all, I'm Rachel.
