Faithfully Nourished

In today's episode, I'm diving into one of the most common questions I get asked — almost daily at this point — and my answer might surprise you. I'm not anti-GLP. In fact, I think tirzepatide specifically can be a genuinely helpful tool in the right context, for the right person, at the right time. But before you ask me if it's right for you, there are six foundational questions y...

In today's episode, I'm sharing something a little different with you — an unplanned, real-time reflection on a situation Adam and I witnessed at our kids' swim lessons. We watched a mom escalate with her young daughter in front of a pool full of people, and no one stepped in. So I did. In this conversation, we walk through what was happening in my body in that moment, why Adam made th...

In today's episode, I'm sharing something that has been transforming the way I read scripture and honestly the way I live my life. We're talking about what happens when you stop reading the Gospels as simply stories about Jesus and start reading them as a biography of how we were meant to live — and what that means for your health, your hormones, your gut, and your relationship with Go...

In today’s episode, my husband, Adam, and I sit down with our marriage mentors, Jeff & Lisa Myers. Jeff and Lisa are leadership and emotional health coaches, speakers, and founders of Strengths & Story Collective. Married for 32 years, they are parents of four children, have a wonderful daughter in law, and recently became grandparents to their grandson, Jase. Their work helps leaders, cou...

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with our Faithfully Nourished practitioners — Darby, Elizabeth, and Sammie — for an honest, unfiltered conversation about the functional wellness space. We discuss what's broken, what's missing, and what true healing actually looks like.  From $600-a-month doctors who never checked in, to bioidentical hormones prescribed without asking why , to...

In today's episode, I'm calling out the thing that's probably holding you back more than anything else - and it's not what you think. It's consistency. I know you're probably rolling your eyes thinking "I AM being consistent!" But here's the truth: we think we're way more consistent than we actually are. I've been doing this for 20 years and I cannot t...

In today's episode, I'm getting really personal with you about something I posted in my stories a couple weeks ago that so many of you messaged me about - the quiet grief of motherhood that nobody really prepares you for. I'm turning 40 this year, and as I'm standing on the edge of this new decade, I'm watching my youngest about to lose his first tooth and realizing that every...

In today's episode, I'm getting real about something I see everywhere on social media right now - nervous system work. Everyone's suddenly talking about breathwork, cold plunges, tapping, and all these regulation tools. And look, those things are helpful, but here's what nobody's telling you: calming your nervous system is NOT the same as healing it. You can do all the breathwo...

In today's episode, I'm bringing in my whole team of practitioners - Darby, Sammie, and Elizabeth - for our first "Ask the Practitioners" episode where we're tackling all your weight loss questions. We're covering everything from the biggest misconceptions at every age and stage, to why your metabolism isn't actually slowing down the way you think it is, and what supp...

Today I'm sitting down with my friend, Theresa Todd. Theresa is a Speaker, Trauma-Informed Coach, and Podcast host of The BAD Mom Show. On this episode, we're going deep into something a lot of us carry but don't talk about - the belief that if people really knew us, they'd see we're inherently flawed. Theresa gets vulnerable about growing up feeling like there was something fu...

In today's episode, I'm going off-script because the same conversation kept coming up with clients all day and I just felt the Lord speaking to my heart about it - we need to talk about forgiveness, healing, and why the church's "just forgive and move on" message is actually missing the entire process. If you've ever felt guilt or shame because someone told you to just fo...

In today's episode, I'm getting spicy and calling out all the hormone BS that's flooding the wellness space right now. If you've been anywhere near Instagram lately, you know everyone's suddenly a "hormone expert" selling you magical solutions - but most of what you're hearing is either oversimplified, incomplete, or straight-up misinformation with pretty branding...

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with my friend Blake Guichet to talk about something that's been heavy on my heart lately - homeschooling. If you've been following along, you know this has been a huge conversation in our house, and honestly, I selfishly picked this topic because we're right in the middle of wrestling through it ourselves.  Blake is a writer, podcaster, and...

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with my friend Rachel to talk about something that got wildly controversial when I posted about it on social media - shared finances in marriage. You guys had SO many strong opinions about where your money goes, who manages it, and whether couples should combine accounts or keep things separate. We're getting into all of it - the psychological and e...

In today's episode, I'm talking about something that's seriously missing from the functional health conversation - and it might be the exact reason your body isn't healing no matter how many supplements you take or protocols you follow. We spend so much time talking about balancing hormones, regulating our nervous systems, and fixing our gut, but what if the real issue isn't wh...

In today's episode, I'm getting real about something I've been seeing over and over with the women I work with - the difference between needing more information and needing more capacity. If you're the woman who's tried all the programs, feels like you're carrying everything, desperately wants to lose weight but keeps starting over, this one's for you. I'm sharing a...

In today's episode, I'm getting really honest about something that came up big at our recent retreat - how control can feel so much safer than surrender, and how that need to control everything is actually wrecking our health and stealing our peace. I know this might sting a little because none of us want to admit we're controlling, right? We call it being responsible or having standar...

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with Dr. Sharla Aronson, a friend and biologic dentist who's been opening my eyes to how connected our oral health is to everything else going on in our bodies. We're diving into some topics you probably weren't expecting from a dental conversation - like how sleep apnea and breathing issues can lead to serious health problems (my mom just h...

In today's episode, I'm getting real about something we all struggle with but don't always want to admit - offense. You know, those moments when someone hurts us and we have a choice to make: let it go or let it grow into something toxic in our hearts. I'm sharing what I've been learning from John Bevere's "The Bait of Satan" and why our triggers are actually tryi...

In today's episode, I invite you to join me for an honest discussion on finding stillness with God, especially when life feels urgent and our emotions are overwhelming. I share a personal experience from a recent training in Chicago, where a family emergency taught me the importance of solitude, silence, and stillness. We explore how these practices can lead to deep healing and reveal underlyi...

In today's episode, we're diving deep into why everything you've tried in the wellness world—be it labs, supplements, diets, or workout routines—might not be working for you. We discuss the frustration of feeling exhausted, anxious, and disconnected despite following all the advice out there. I share my own journey of realizing that true healing requires addressing the root issues—like...

On today’s episode, I’m joined by Alyssa Rahn, speaker coach and host of the Revival Mom podcast, as we have a powerful and honest conversation about what it looks like to lead your family in faith—even when they’re not walking with you.  Alyssa isn’t your ordinary mom running down the street after her naked toddler, although she has done that too many times to count.  Alyssa is the host of the Re...

On today’s episode, I’m diving deep into what real soul care looks like—spoiler alert, it’s not about pedicures, wine, or Target runs. We’re exploring the powerful difference between selflessness and martyrdom, and how misunderstanding this can silently destroy our homes and bodies. I break down what true divine order means, how your God-given temperament differs from personality, and why putting...

In today’s episode, I’m sharing why we made the bold decision to stop doing gifts at our children’s birthday parties—and how it’s shifted so much more than just how we celebrate. This isn’t about being extreme; it’s about being intentional and raising our kids with purpose, joy, and generosity. I’ll take you behind the scenes of what birthdays now look like in our home, why we invite others to giv...

In today’s episode, I’m sharing why another protocol isn’t the answer—and how things at Faithfully Nourished have shifted because of what I’ve personally walked through. I open up about doing all the “right” things—labs, supplements, clean eating—and still feeling disconnected and unwell. Healing didn’t come from fixing my body; it came from surrendering, softening, and letting God lead. If you’ve...
