Ep: 110: Summer Growth Series – Grace Not Perfection

As we wrap up our Summer Growth Series, we’re ending with one of my all-time favorite books: Grace Not Perfection by Emily Ley.

With a new school year around the corner and busy routines returning, this conversation is a reminder that we don’t have to do everything perfectly to live a meaningful life. We talk about letting go of unrealistic expectations, creating margin, simplifying our schedules, and making time to fill our own cups so we can better care for the people we love.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why grace will always take you farther than perfection.
• The invisible mental load so many women and moms carry.
• How to create more margin in your calendar and your life.
• The connection between simplicity, joy, and peace.
• Practical habits like planning, meal prep, and Sunday resets that reduce stress.
• Why embracing the season you’re in is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.

As we close out this summer series, I hope you’ll be encouraged to stop chasing perfection and start choosing grace, gratitude, and the things that truly matter.

If you’ve enjoyed the Summer Growth Series, I’d love for you to rate and review the podcast and share your favorite episode with a friend. Thank you for spending your summer with me, and I’ll see you next week as we kick off our fall season with more conversations about running, fitness, and filling your own cup.
