How to ask better questions, understand your care, and stay curious about your health without becoming overwhelmed. Recently, I have been hearing the same story from women again and again. “I know I should go to the doctor, but I never feel like I have enough time.” “My labs were normal, but I still don’t feel well.” “I left with a prescription, but I don’t really understand what we’re treating.” “I tried to explain everything that has been happening, but the pieces never see

Lately, I have been bumping up against my capacity. And it has felt very uncomfortable. As women, we can carry so much that our buckets remain filled to the brim—until one more responsibility, interruption, or disappointment causes everything to spill over. Recently, I was working on a project, and nothing seemed to go right. The harder I worked, the more frustrated I became. I felt mentally depleted and emotionally drained. Finally, I surrendered the outcome to the Lord. I s

Understanding the Buzz Around GLP-1 Medications There is a reason so many people are talking about GLP-1 medications right now. For many, these medications offer a sense of relief. Relief from constant hunger. Relief from food noise. Relief from cravings. Relief from years of trying so hard and feeling like nothing worked. After joining Denise Jelinek on the Weight Loss with the Holy Spirit podcast, What Every Woman on a GLP-1 Needs to Know, I felt compelled to continue th

There comes a point when many women quietly wonder: Why does wellness seem to work for everyone else—but not for me? You have tried the routines. You have downloaded the plans, bought the supplements, saved the healthy recipes, promised yourself you would get up earlier, move more, eat better, pray more consistently, and finally make rest a priority. And sometimes it works. For a few days, perhaps even a few weeks, you feel hopeful. You are doing the right things. You are fol

In a world that often feels chaotic and overwhelming, many women are seeking a path to wellness that aligns with their faith. This journey is not just about physical health; it encompasses emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being. Faith-based wellness offers a holistic approach that nurtures the body, mind, and spirit, allowing women to thrive in all aspects of their lives. Understanding Faith-Based Wellness Faith-based wellness is the integration of spiritual beliefs and

In today's fast-paced world, many Christians find themselves feeling exhausted, both physically and spiritually. The demands of daily life, work, family, and church commitments can leave little room for rest and rejuvenation. This exhaustion can lead to feelings of burnout, anxiety, and a sense of disconnect from God. However, there is hope. By understanding the root causes of this exhaustion and implementing practical strategies, we can find peace and restore our spiritual v

In today's fast-paced world, many Christian women find themselves feeling overwhelmed. Balancing family, work, and spiritual commitments can lead to exhaustion and a sense of disconnection from God. If you are one of these women, know that you are not alone. The good news is that coaching can help you renew your spirit and regain control over your life. This blog post will explore how coaching can empower you, provide practical steps to find the right coach, and share inspiri

I remember my pastor once saying, “And don’t give up chocolate. Do something that will challenge you.” Well… here I am giving up chocolate for Lent. At first, it might sound cliché. But honestly, this isn’t a small thing for me. When Jesus spent forty days in the wilderness, He practiced the self-denial that Lent invites us into. He was hungry, tired, and tempted — and He leaned on God’s word and presence to endure it. In many ways, His time in the wilderness reflects our own

Advent draws us into a sacred pause —a season not of rushing, but of readiness. We wait. We hope. We prepare room. And yet, each of us waits differently. How we receive, anticipate, or respond to this holy season often reflects our God-given temperament. Advent isn't one-size-fits-all — neither is faith, growth, or wellness. Christ comes to each of us uniquely, personally, intentionally. 🌿 Temperaments and the Way We Wait Each temperament brings both gifts and challenges to

Do you feel in control of your health choices, or do you believe external forces determine them? On the journey toward holistic wellness, our locus of control—our belief about what influences our life outcomes—plays a critical role. It shapes how we respond to challenges, make decisions, and sustain long-term well-being. Within the SEEDS framework—Spiritual health, Eating, Exercise, Discipline, and Sabbath—understanding where we place control helps us discern when to take act
