Ordinary on Purpose
Mikala Albertson
Surrendering Perfect and Finding Beauty Amid the Rubble
Dr. Mikala Albertson aimed to be exemplary in all she did – marriage, motherhood, her career – but her seemingly picture-perfect life began crumbling when she realized her doctor husband was addicted to drugs and nothing was perfect after all. Listen in as Mikala shares her story of striving and suffering in the hunt for perfection and found that embracing her gritty, messy, complicated, tough ordinary life led her on a journey of healing, redemption, and renewal. In this conversation with Sharon Betters, Mikala encourages listeners that disappointments and broken places are opportunities to find beauty in the rubble.
Mikala Albertson, MD, is a family practice doctor turned mostly stay at home mom who is passionate about Jesus and all things ordinary. Since 2017, she has been writing and inspiring women to let go of striving for the world’s expectations so they can fully embrace the good, hard, ordinary life God has planned. Life is beautifully ordinary, after all! Mikala lives with her husband of 19 years just outside of Salt Lake City, Utah, and together they raise their five children who range in age from 16 to 4.
