• 219. Why Hustle Isn’t Holy✝️: Surrendering Striving in the Name of Health

  Get on the waitlist for Functional Health Coaching HERE. In this episode, I’m getting real about a struggle that so many of us — especially high-achieving Christian women — face: the pressure to keep hustling in the name of being “helpful,” “faithful,” or “productive.” I talk about the spiritual and physical toll that striving takes on our lives, and why I believe God is calling us to a better, slower, more grace-filled way of leading and living. We’ll explore the connection between chronic stress and our health, the spiritual roots of over-functioning, and how the first step toward healing isn’t doing more — it’s surrendering.   I hope this episode blesses you!

• 218. People-Pleasing: What It's Doing to Your Health and How to Break the Cycle

  In this powerful follow-up to Confessions of a People-Pleasing Leader, I break down how approval-seeking behavior doesn’t just impact your emotions — it affects your nervous system, hormones, digestion, immune function, and more. You’ll learn how chronic people-pleasing acts as a silent stressor in the body, why it often originates from a survival response (not just personality), and how to begin resetting your body and spirit with grace-filled, faith-centered tools.

• 217. Confessions of a People-Pleasing Leader

  In this deeply personal episode, I’m opening up about how people-pleasing showed up in my leadership — and how it nearly wrecked my health, my confidence, and my connection with God.   I share how striving to be liked led to emotional exhaustion, physical symptoms, and identity confusion… and how God began the healing work of reshaping me from the inside out.   If you’ve ever struggled with overextending yourself, taking criticism too personally, or tying your worth to approval — this episode is for you.   I hope this episode blesses you!

• 216. Built to Heal: What Functional Health Really Means (And Why It Aligns with Faith)

  In today’s episode, I’m diving deeper into what functional wellness actually means — and why I believe it aligns perfectly with God’s design for our bodies. Functional health isn’t just about nutrition or hormone balancing — it’s about understanding that your body was created with wisdom and the ability to heal, if we give it the right environment. I walk through how stress, sleep, toxins, gut health, and spiritual depletion all contribute to the symptoms we’ve normalized — and why so many Christian women in leadership are running on empty, feeling like their bodies are broken. You are not broken. You are brilliantly made. And there’s a better way forward.   I hope this episode blesses you!
