Messy Homes, Boundaries & Jesus: A Real Talk with Whitney English
Manage episode 494451659 series 3241442
In this episode of Confidence and Coffee, Ashley sits down with her friend Whitney English (author, creative, entrepreneur, and all-around wise woman) to get brutally honest about how our homes reflect our hearts.
They talk about:
💛 Why perfectionism often comes from old wounds
💛 How our need to control our homes can create unintentional wounds in our kids
💛 The difference between apologizing to feel better vs. actually repenting and changing
💛 Setting healthy boundaries in your home (even with guests & kids’ friends!)
💛 Why messy homes (and messy hearts) don’t disqualify us from God’s love
💛 Finding real beauty and stewardship in minimalism vs. maximalism
💛 How Jesus still meets us in our empty fridges, overdrafted bank accounts, and imperfect lives
Whitney shares behind-the-scenes stories from her book Organize First, Decorate Second... plus why she believes gratitude is the birthplace of joy.
If you’re a perfectionist, a mama trying to keep it all together, or just someone who’s craving more peace and less chaos, this conversation is for you.
✨ Listen & let us know your thoughts:
- What area of your life are you learning to release perfectionism?
- If you were a dinosaur, which one would you be? 😂 (Whitney picked brontosaurus, Ashley picked triceratops... yes, it’s a thing.)
