Is your desire to be a “good Christian parent” actually hurting your child? In this episode, we’re unpacking the hidden dangers of perfectionism in Christian parenting—and how it may be fueling anxiety, disconnection, and even spiritual confusion in your teen.

We’ll explore how perfectionist parenting styles can create fear-based homes, damage self-worth, and block the very connection you’re trying to build.

You’ll also hear how perfectionism shows up subtly—in our expectations, in our church culture, and even in how we talk to ourselves—and how those patterns can quietly transfer to our children.

You’ll learn why redefining the word “perfect” is one of the most important things you can do as a parent, and how spiritual growth doesn’t come from flawless performance, but from grace, healing, and love.

Whether your child is struggling with depression, anxiety, or emotional distance, this episode will help you see how your own shift away from pressure can open the door to deeper connection.

If you’ve ever wondered why your best efforts still leave your child pulling away—this episode will give you clarity, hope, and a whole new path forward.

Want a simple, powerful way to start reconnecting with your child? Grab your free copy of The Miracle Cycle™ guide and take the first step today.


If you’re tired of walking on eggshells and just want to feel close to your child again, let’s talk—this free consult call could be the first step to real change.
