IF MAMA AIN’T HEALTHY (AIN’T NOBODY HEALTHY) - Christian Wellness, Metabolic Health, Functional Health, Christian Women’s Functional Health Coaching - formerly YOUR BIRTH, GOD’S WAY

Is perimenopause really just a hormone problem? Or is it revealing something much deeper? In this episode, we're taking a different approach to one of the biggest conversations in women's health today. Rather than debating hormone replacement therapy, we're asking why so many women experience such significant symptoms in the first place. We'll talk about God's design for this season of life, the f...

SHOW NOTES:   "I want to make healthier choices, but my husband isn't on board." If you've ever thought that, you're not alone. Today we're talking about how to pursue a healthier lifestyle while honoring your marriage, respecting your husband's agency, and creating lasting influence instead of constant conflict. Healthy homes aren't built through pressure. They're built through patient, consisten...

Have you ever been told your labs were "normal," even though you knew you didn't feel normal? You're not imagining things. In this episode, we're discussing one of the biggest frustrations I hear from women: being told everything looks fine while continuing to struggle with fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, hormone issues, and other symptoms. We'll talk about the difference between normal and optim...

Two hundred episodes ago... well, not quite. But one of the most popular episodes I've ever recorded featured Sue Becker from Bread Beckers discussing the incredible benefits of fresh milled flour. Today, I want to revisit that conversation. I still believe fresh milled bread is one of the most nourishing forms of bread available. But after years of working with women, reviewing labs, and analyzin...

If insurance won't cover it, is it still worth doing? Many women have unknowingly adopted the belief that if insurance doesn't pay for something, it must not be necessary. But insurance companies were never designed to determine your goals, your quality of life, your energy, or your future health. In this episode, we're exploring how insurance became the gatekeeper for many healthcare decisions, t...

What if the birth control pill changed more than fertility? In this episode, we explore how one of the most influential medications in modern history may have changed the way we think about symptoms, health, and the human body itself. We'll discuss the difference between symptom management and health restoration, body literacy, women's relationship with their cycles, and why asking better question...

Modern life has made almost everything easier. So why are women more exhausted, inflamed, anxious, overstimulated, and disconnected from their bodies than ever before? In this episode, we talk about the hidden cost of convenience, why quick-fix culture keeps women stuck, and why true healing often requires a completely different mindset than modern culture teaches us. This conversation is for wome...

Is the sun really the enemy? In this episode, we unpack the modern fear surrounding sunlight, the rise of SPF culture, vitamin D deficiency, and why many women may actually benefit from more intentional sun exposure—not less. We also discuss concerns about common sunscreen ingredients, inflammatory lifestyles, and practical ways to approach sunlight wisely without recklessness or fear. Apply for c...

Today's episode is a little bit different. I heard the best Mother's Day sermon I've ever heard this Sunday and as many women as possible need to hear it because of the encouragement it will provide. It doesn't sound much like a Mother's Day message to start, but I promise it will be worth staying to the end. You will walk away encouraged.  This is a message from Brad Burkett, the assistant minist...

Most women think they’re saying “no” to their health because they don’t have time. But what if every “no” is actually a “yes” to something else? In this blog, I’m walking you through the hidden tradeoffs that are shaping your energy, metabolism, and hormones—whether you realize it or not. Because you’re not avoiding a cost… you’re just choosing which one you’re willing to live with. And once you s...

If you’ve been doing everything you know to do—eating better, trying to be consistent, making changes—and your body still isn’t responding… there’s a reason for that. In this short episode, I’m breaking down why so many women feel stuck in their bodies and what’s actually happening underneath the surface when weight won’t move, energy stays low, and hormones feel off. This isn’t about willpower. I...

Many women are not stuck because they are lazy or uninformed. They are stuck because they are still operating in the same pattern that made them sick in the first place. In this episode, Lori talks about why quick fixes keep women trapped, why symptom suppression is not the same as healing, and why guiding the body back toward God’s design is possible. If you are ready to stop spinning your wheels...

SHOW NOTES: Before you take the weight loss shot, listen to this. So many women are turning to GLP-1 medications because they feel stuck, exhausted, and like nothing else is working. But what if your body already has a built-in system designed to regulate hunger, metabolism, and weight? In this video, I break down: How GLP-1 works naturally in the body How weight loss injections override that syst...

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body… like you don’t trust your hunger, your energy, or your hormones anymore… this didn’t happen by accident. In this video, I walk through how women are conditioned from a young age to ignore their body’s signals—from period pain to blood sugar crashes to the birth experience—and how that leads to feeling exhausted, stuck, and out of sync. This is not a...

Show Notes: https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/blog/186 Most people assume drinking water is neutral, but modern water supplies can contain more than minerals and microbes.
