What happens when you’ve spent your entire life trying to do everything right, only to discover that life isn’t going according to plan?
In this deeply moving episode I sit down with Desirae Terry, a therapist, author, and former BYU cheerleader, who shares her journey from perfectionism and performance to surrender and a more personal relationship with God.
From battling an eating disorder to experiencing a devastating medical complication during pregnancy that left her facing paralysis, infertility, and the loss of the future she had imagined, Desirae found herself questioning everything she believed about being good, being faithful, and earning God’s love.
Through grief, motherhood, surrogacy, and learning to release control, Desirae discovered something beautiful: God wasn’t asking her to be perfect. He was inviting her to be vulnerable.
This conversation explores what it means to stop performing for God’s approval, find faith in the middle of disappointment, and discover that our worth was never dependent on getting everything right.
A powerful reminder that sometimes finding God isn’t about trying harder. It’s about finally letting go.
