Really Growing Through It12. The Perfect Baha'i: Striving and strugglingI have hestitated to make this episode for a little bit because it can be hard to talk to about religion when it comes to laws, judgements, and upholding principles. But I've been having conversations with friends and other Baha'i youth (or those no longer in the Faith) and their difficulty with perfectionist or purity culture in the Faith.I feel strongly that, while Baha'u'llah has given us laws to help us strive for a perfect and spritual humanity, the way we talk about laws with our children/teens, and with ourselves in our mind is can...

Really Growing Through ItSelf-Doubt Summer to Secure School Year: The science of mindfulnessDespite having what I would call "the best summer ever" filled with travel and friends, I personally experienced a significant amount of self-doubt and impostor syndrome, leaving me feeling deeply uncertain about my abilities and incompetent. This period, amplified by my emerging adulthood and the pressures I felt as a young woman—including prospective anxiety about the future and a constant feeling of needing to be perfect—led to much rumination and a cycle of self-criticism. As a Baháʼí, I even struggled with why I felt this way despite my spiritual beliefs. Let's talk about mindfulness and how it's proving...

Really Growing Through It7. Spiritual Perfectionism: Overcoming self-doubt and feelings of unworthinessIn this episode of Really Growing Through It, I talk about navigating through periods of sadness and feeling out of control. I realized I might be experiencing spiritual perfectionism, feeling like I'm never good enough in my spiritual habits rather than just striving for excellence. I also explore how a lack of spirituality can contribute to anxiety and depression, as highlighted by Lisa Miller's research. This connects to the idea of our twofold purpose: the importance of nurturing our inner spiritual being alongside our outward doing or service. Ultimately, I found insight in remembering that finding God's love can...
