As women, we are often drawn to being in control. The problem is that it soon becomes a form of modern idolatry and never serves us well in the end.

I have only listened to one podcast so far, but is exactly what I'm looking for!! Honest and kind guidance. At 51, I want to find the joy I know the Lord offers!! Thank you
This podcast is such a refreshing space for the soul. The conversations are heartfelt, faith filled and full of gentle minors to slow down find peace and rest in God’s presence. Each episode feels like an invitation to breathe, reflect and let go of the pressure to be perfect, truly uplifting and encouraging.
I love what Shelly does. She goes right to the heart with clear and helpful applications on her podcast. Highly recommended!
First, I love the podcast name UnPerfect because it reminds us the pressure is off and to rely on the grace of God, the only perfect One. Second, I so appreciate Shelly holding space for stories and honest conversations that strengthen our faith and help us to not feel alone!
Shelly is authentic, open, and wise. Listening to the podcast is relaxing but ALSO challenging as she prompts listeners to step out in faith, try new things, and keep learning and growing.
Shelly is a great host and has such helpful quests.
You can’t get more “real life” than Shelly! A breath of fresh air (between the can’t quite catch your breath laughing), relatable (if you aren’t a robot), encouraging, and inspiring! Thankful for the way she can pour into my life at a distance and in a way she can’t realize. As a mom of 3 littles, a wife of 10+ years, and an actual human being who is far from perfect… this podcast is such a blessing!
Shelly’s embracing of the bumps along the road of life shines through in her humor, testimonies, and passion for her audience. She makes it a point to show that your shortcomings can be used as stepping stones instead of setbacks. You’re in for a blast listening to her!
Shelly speaks with such honesty and vulnerability! She instantly draws you in with her use of humor and real-life stories. Don’t expect shallow Christianity - be ready for depth of faith and thought
Shelly’s blend of wit and wisdom, along with amazing real-life Gospel threads, makes this a must-listen for moms navigating faith and family.
This podcast is insightful and sooo helpful every week. I really enjoy the emailed blog as well. Shelly’s sense of humor makes me laugh out loud but her points are worth praying over and committing to memory. She is open and honest with her parenting mistakes and “unperfectness”, which is very refreshing. I’ve gotten my daughter, who is a new mommy, to read/listen to her as well!
I have forwarded Shelly’s podcasts and blogs to many people because her transparent-give-God-the-glory writings and interviews are joyful and true and address real life in meaningful water-hits-the-wheel ways. I am thankful for this gifted woman who has helped me to become more like my perfect Savior in this un-perfect life and to know how to walk with friends going through challenges I haven’t faced. What a wonderful resource!
Shelly is hilarious, real and relatable as she shares her honest stories on parenting, marriage, and more. She challenges her listeners to dig into scripture, grow in their relationship with God and seek truth. Listening to UnPerfect Podcast will help you feel seen in your also UnPerfect life!
Shelly is so real! Her transparency, filled with grace and biblical knowledge is refreshing and encouraging. She is a joy and a blessing to all who listen!
I sit here at the end of February, wondering why I can’t complete any project or stick with any resolution… To hear Shelly say that she struggles with the same thing – a love/hate relationship with quitting – was very encouraging. Especially since she is already in season 4, episode 83! If she hasn’t quit this, maybe I can learn too…
