I've gotten this question a lot recently so figured it was time we dove into it! Today I'll answer this question, provide you with scripture to focus on with goal setting, pride, and also where our focus should always remain, JESUS. I'll also give you some questions to ask yourself as a gut check when you are making aesthetic goals <3 Hope this one blesses you friend!!

this is a fine line that can sometimes be crossed either by ourselves or wrongly by someone who loves us, knows us, or maybe they ain't a fan anyways lol But today we are going to dive into and discuss how discipline & disordered eating/exercise is not the same. Then I give you 3 tips to apply after distinguishing the two. also look at episodes #12, #16, #29 concerning red flags of an unhealthy relationship with food, your body, and exercise

usually we have some pretty deep emotional and connectedness kind of feels going on in the pod but today I wanted to give some soft guidelines and some knowledge to help you whether you are trying to lose weight, gain strength, or maintain. Knowledge is power and it's wise to keep growing. I just don't want you to get overwhelmed with too much, leading you to analysis paralysis. So we keep it simple today with some answers and comparisons/ benefits of strength vs aerobic activity and how much to do according to your goals! But the focus always remains the same. We are not in this journey to lose a lb or lbs* its not a quest to simply get skinny but rather evidence of obedience to God, caring for our temples, creating a healthy dwelling place for His spirit!

in this podcast we get kinda deep concerning a message the lord placed on my heart during my run today. These small whispers He always shares with me are so special to share with you on the pod because each time I have legit just had convo with you or someone else about the exact thing He reveals to me! Let's learn and grow together concerning what kind of spirit the Lord has gifted us. You'll soon learn fear is not a part of it.
