Episode 22: Relationship, Religion, & Weight Loss Redemption
We’re gonna get real and raw and down to the nitty gritty in today’s episode. In case you missed it, today’s episode is titled, “Relationship, Religion, & Weight Loss Redemption.” What in the world does religion have to do with weight loss? My answer to that? Everything.
We’re going to dive into some Scripture together where Jesus was talking to the Pharisees and calling out their hardened hearts and how that compares to our own hearts as we pursue a deeper relationship with Jesus and pursue freedom in our health journey.
Religion is full of rules. It’s systematic. It strives for perfection. It has a long list of do’s and don’ts. Relationship…. It’s personal. And it can also be messy.
Our relationship with those we love can be messy. Our relationship with a job we love can get messy. Our relationship with food can get messy.
Today we’re going to learn the difference and take more next right steps towards freedom in our health journey.

Episode 5: How to Understand Your Value on Your Weight Loss Journey
When we know our value, our decisions reflect that. When we don’t know our value, our decisions reflect that.
Those are powerful words, my friend. So, how do we truly find our value? How do we know where to find it? What in the world does knowing our value have to do with weight loss? Great questions.
We’re diving into the deep of this in today’s episode.
So, here’s the thing: You can choose to base your value on your past decisions, or the things that have happened to you in the past, or you can choose today. You can’t do both.
“Now listen! Today I am giving you a choice between life and death…” – Deut. 30:15
These words sum it all up. We can choose life with our words and actions or we can choose death. The choice is up to us.
And the words we speak over ourselves as women will determine what we believe about our value.
The words we hear, whether spoken to us or by us, affect the way we see the world. They affect the decisions we make. We start to believe things that aren’t true and before we know it, our minds only know what we’ve led ourselves to believe.
For true change to take place we have to replace the lies we’ve been believing about ourselves with the truth about who God says we are.
We’ll be learning how to:
- Replace lies with liberating truths
- Creating a value statement that reflects who we really are
Behind every lie is a liberating truth. Behind every lie is the voice of God longing to speak to our hearts to tell us who we really are.
But we have to choose to find the truth. Then we have to choose to believe the truth, no matter how long it takes.
Join us for today’s episode on how to understand your value on your weight loss journey.

Episode 4: How to Find Your Why
One of the things I learned early on in my 145 lb. weight loss journey is that if I don’t know my why, it’s much harder to bounce back onto the right path when we’ve gone off the rails for whatever reason.
I used to teach men and women in the prison system how to find their why, and I’m telling you what, nothing made my heart smile more than when you saw the light bulb come on in their eyes and they realized they still had a reason to keep going. I would see grown men full of tattoos weep. Those are some of the most cherished moments in my career.
But finding our why isn’t just reserved for people in prison, corporate CEO’s, or super-focused high achievers. No, finding our why is critical for all of us, especially as we continue on the journey of weight loss and health and finding lasting freedom.
My hope for you is that by the end of this episode, you’re going to cling to your why like your life depends on it, because your life might just really depend on it.
“You lose your way when you lose your why.” Those are nine of the most powerful words I’ve ever heard, spoken by my friend Gail Hyatt.
Have you ever stopped long enough to ask yourself why?
And not the why you might be thinking I’m referring to.
Not “Why did I gain all the weight back that I lost?”
Not “Why can’t I get my crap together when it comes to getting healthy?”
Not “Why can’t I be like those other moms that can do all the things?”
Not “Why am I still single?
Those are important questions to ask at the right time, but those aren’t the why questions I’m talking about. We’re going to process through some more empowering why questions in today’s episode. You don’t want to miss it.
I may shed a tear a or two. So, click here to listen and let’s figure out your why together.
