Perfection Unfolding with Cara G.
Ep. 34 | Play, Joy & Creativity as a Love Language
Before the world told you to “be serious,” you were joy, curiosity, and creativity. That part of you still exists, and it’s one of your greatest tools for healing. In this episode of Perfection Unfolding, I’m diving into three core pillars of inner child healing:
🌿 Why play and joy are essential for emotional healing 🎨 How unexpressed creativity becomes stored sadness
✨ How to access joy, play, and creative flow in everyday life
Whether you’ve been feeling disconnected from your creativity, weighed down by stored grief, or just longing for more lightness in your days, this conversation is here to remind you that healing can be fun, playful, and deeply life-giving.
Ep. 33 | 5 Steps to Reparent Your Inner Child
In this episode of Perfection Unfolding, I guide you through 5 powerful steps to reconnect with, comfort, and heal your inner child. You’ll learn what reparenting actually means, how it impacts your emotional triggers, and why this work is the foundation for deeper self-trust, emotional regulation, and freedom from old patterns.
Ep. 32 | Self-Sabotage, Rage & the Messy Side of Growth
In this episode, I peel back the curtain on what it’s like to feel like you’re falling apart while everything in your life is technically “leveling up.” From people-pleasing to deep resentment, rage to surrender—I’m sharing the raw truth about the tension between being the most helpful version of myself and feeling completely undone. This one’s for the overthinkers, the healers, the ones who feel too much. You’re not alone. We’re not crazy. We’re just human. And we’re still unfolding.
Ep. 31 | Meet Your Inner Child: The Wound Beneath the Behavior
In this foundational episode of our Inner Child Mini-Series, I explore how emotional wounds—like abandonment, shame, or neglect—get encoded into our systems and show up in adulthood as perfectionism, people-pleasing, anxiety, disconnection, or fear of intimacy.
Ep. 29 | Lessons in Love ft. Nyck Khayo (Pt. 2)
Last week on Perfection Unfolding, I was joined by Dallas-based artist and rapper Nyck Khayo for a raw and refreshing conversation on modern love, self-awareness, and healing through heartbreak. This is part two of that conversation!
Ep. 27 | Let Your Love Be Your Legacy
In this solo episode of Perfection Unfolding, I talk about what it means to let your love be your legacy. Inspired by @ayandastood’s post—“You didn’t come here to be perfect, you came here to be generous”—I reflect on the devotion behind every step of the healing and creative process.
Ep. 26 | Healing Through Food & Female Friendship ft. Haleigh Smith
In Episode 26 of Perfection Unfolding, I sit down with one of my dearest friends of 12 years, Haleigh Smith—a traveling plant-based chef, integrative health coach, and radiant human based in Mexico City. Together we talk about her powerful healing journey, the medicine of whole foods, and what it takes to walk away from paths that no longer serve us. We reflect on the parallels in our lives, the strength we’ve found in sisterhood, and how to trust the process when building a life from intuition, not expectation.
Ep. 25 | You Can’t Hate Yourself Into Healing
In this episode of Perfection Unfolding, we explore a radical truth: you don’t have to love your body to heal. What if peace isn't found in perfection, but in neutrality? What if the path to freedom isn't paved with forced affirmations, but with honest acceptance? I'm unpacking the difference between body positivity and body neutrality, why self-love can feel like a trap sometimes, and how to meet yourself with softness even when you don’t feel “there” yet.
Ep. 24 | Alone, But Not Lonely: The Power of Finding Yourself in Solitude
In this episode of Perfection Unfolding, we explore the beauty of being alone without feeling lonely. I'm diving into the power of solitude, how sacred alone time can reconnect you to your truest self, and why being by yourself might just be the key to real freedom.
