The Superwoman Lie part 2: When God Checked My Heart About Serving

The Root of Perfectionism: The Lie That Keeps You Feeling Not Enough | Christian Faith & Identity

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you try… it’s still not enough? In this episode of Unmasked with Tari, we go beyond the surface and uncover the root of perfectionism—the deeper lie that quietly shapes how we see ourselves, our worth, and even our relationship with God. This isn’t just about behavior… it’s about belief. Taking us back to the Garden of Eden, Tari reveals how perfectionism didn’t start with us—it started with a question that planted doubt: “Did God really say…?” From that moment, the enemy introduced a subtle but powerful lie: That what God provided… wasn’t enough. And from that lie, perfectionism was born. In this episode, we unpack: * How perfectionism is rooted in doubt, control, and self-reliance * Why striving keeps you moving—but never truly free * The connection between perfectionism and a works-based relationship with God * How comparison and performance distort your identity * Why humility—not perfection—is the answer Tari shares real, personal moments—from faith to family to identity—revealing how perfectionism can quietly take over your life while convincing you you’re “doing everything right.” But here’s the truth: ✨ You were never meant to carry the weight of becoming “enough” ✨ You don’t have to earn what God already finished ✨ Freedom begins when you stop striving—and start trusting You don’t have to be perfect. Jesus perfects the chosen. It’s time to take off the mask… at the root.

The Perfectionist Trap: Why So Many Women Feel Stuck & How to Break Free

Perfectionism doesn’t show up as a problem… it shows up as pressure. In this episode of Unmasked with Tari, I sit down with my longtime friend Theresa—Overthinking Coach and founder of Grace and Grit—to have an honest conversation about the trap so many women are living in. What looks like “doing things right” on the outside is often driven by fear, overthinking, and the need to avoid getting it wrong. We talk about how perfectionism quietly keeps women stuck—second guessing decisions, delaying purpose, and feeling like they’re never enough… even when they are fully capable. This conversation goes beyond surface-level advice. We unpack the root of perfectionism, the pressure it creates, and how it disconnects us from peace. And more importantly… we talk about how to break free. Because freedom doesn’t come from getting it perfect— It comes from choosing obedience, trusting God, and moving anyway. If you’ve been: * Overthinking every decision * Waiting until you feel “ready”Struggling to take actionFeeling stuck between where you are and where you know you’re called to be This episode is for you. You don’t need to get it right. You just need to start. In this episode, we cover: * What the perfectionist trap really is * Why perfectionism is rooted in fear—not excellence * How overthinking keeps women stuck * The mental and emotional cost of perfectionism * Why waiting for “perfect” conditions delays purpose * How to move forward with clarity, confidence, and faith * Choosing obedience over perfection

We’ve talked about taking off the cape. We’ve talked about heart posture. But in this episode… we go deeper.

The Superwoman Lie part 2: When God Checked My Heart About Serving

In Part 2 of the Superwoman Lie series on Unmasked with Tari, we go deeper — not just into the pressure of being “the strong one,” but into the heart posture behind it. After asking the question, “When are you going to take off your cape?”… God took it a step further and checked my heart in a way I didn’t expect. Because somewhere along the way, I realized something: I didn’t just pick up a cape…I started adopting the world's mindset. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ How culture can shift our perspective on serving our homes, husbands, and families✨ The tension between feeling overwhelmed and still being called to serve✨ What God revealed to me about my attitude and heart posture ✨ The difference between serving from pressure vs serving from purpose✨ Why taking off the cape doesn’t mean walking away from what God called you to Because the truth is… God never told us to stop serving.He called us to serve with the right heart. If you’ve ever felt torn between being overwhelmed and being obedient… t

When Are You Going to Take Off Your Cape? (The Superwoman Lie)

Have you ever felt like if you stopped holding everything together… everything would fall apart? In this episode of Unmasked with Tari, we’re having a real and honest conversation about the Superwoman mask — the pressure to be everything to everyone, all the time. This message was birthed from a question I woke up with that I couldn’t ignore: “When are you going to take off your cape?” For so many women, being “the strong one” didn’t start as a choice — it started as survival.We became dependable. Responsible. The one everyone calls. But somewhere along the way…We started believing the lie that our value comes from how much we carry. In this episode, we unpack: ✨ The Superwoman mindset and how it shows up in our lives✨ Where the pressure to be “the strong one” really begins✨ The lies we believe about rest, strength, and asking for help✨ What God actually says about carrying burdens and finding rest✨ Why your identity is not in what you do — but in who God called you to be Because the truth is… God never called us to be Superwoman.He gave us grace, not a cape. And for many of us, our first ministry is the family He trusted us with — not the pressure to hold everything together perfectly. If you’ve been carrying more than you were meant to… this episode is for you. 💛 Share this with a woman who might still be wearing her cape 💬 And ask yourself: When am I ready to take mine off?
