About this episode

“I thought it was what I was eating…” If you’ve tried eating better, working harder, and still feel nothing's working, this episode is for you. I share 5 fitness lies Christian women believe—and the biblical truths that will finally set you free.

In This Episode:

  • The 5 common lies Christian women believe about fitness

  • Why eating better isn’t enough if your mindset is stuck in shame

  • The truth: your worth isn’t tied to the number on the scale

  • Why rest is not weakness—it’s biblical

  • How to break free from struggling, starting over, and feeling stuck

Key Scriptures:
Romans 12:2 – Be transformed by the renewing of your mind
Galatians 5:1 – It is for freedom that Christ set us free
Psalm 139:14 – You are fearfully and wonderfully made
Matthew 11:28 – Come to Me... and I will give you rest
