Perfectionism seems to be woven into my genetic code, and yet, I have made a joyful recovery from perfectionism with God’s help.
As a firstborn in my family, I was responsible practically from the day I was born. Since our culture rewards perfection in many ways, I pursued it with all my might. Unfortunately (yet predictably) that caused me to suffer from several seasons of depression.

I was both caught up in the music, lyrics and portrayal of love and passion.
When a big change is absolutely necessary, you need guidance and courage from the Lord. Here is a story of how I faced a big change with greater faith.
