The Becoming Podcast

Sarah gets honest about the ache of wanting real community and not being able to find it. After years of trying churches, groups, and showing up empty, she shares what God taught her through the ache: we were not built to carry it alone. This episode introduces The Becoming Collective, a faith-forward online community for women in the messy middle of their becoming. The door opens July 9th. Stay c...

 What does friendship actually look like when two women stop performing and start holding each other up?   In this episode, I sit down with my bestie and purpose mate Julie-Anne Nayler for the conversation people have been asking for. A decade of friendship. Career pivots. Grief. Personal transformation. The quiet seasons where neither of us knew who we were becoming.   We talk about what it means...

She stopped trusting God. Not because He failed her. Because the season got so dark she stopped being able to see Him in it. A woman sent that message to Sarah's DMs this week. And Sarah gets it. In this episode, she goes back to the basement. The season she was most desperate to escape. Broke, starting over, Brooke-Lynn a toddler, crying out to God with nothing left but the word help. She walked...

She almost didn't say yes to the podcast. She almost didn't say yes to the 100-day content challenge either. But on the same day she got off a call wondering if she even had anything worth building, an email arrived. An offer she hadn't asked for, timed so precisely she couldn't explain it any other way. This episode is the story of what God built through a yes Sarah almost didn't say. From a podc...

I expected God to say "girl, get up." Instead, He said: sit down. In this episode, Sarah shares what happened when she obeyed that unexpected instruction and what God built in the quiet while she waited. She walks through the journal entry she wrote on March 24th describing a dream home in detail: the layout, the room for Brooke-Lynn, the space for a studio. Months later, still in bankruptcy with...

This episode wasn't planned. God asked me to show up with my mic and nothing else. So that's what I did. I'd spent the week going down a planning spiral, trying to prepare, trying to be enough, trying to figure out exactly what He needed from me before I could start. He stopped me mid-spiral with one question: do you trust me or not? In this episode I sit with something a lot of us carry quietly....

I've been on a GLP-1 for almost a year. Not for the reason you're assuming. This isn't a weight loss story. This is the story of a body that was at a constant eight out of ten in pain despite doing everything right. Daily walks. Strength training. Nutrition. Therapy. Nervous system work. Chiropractic. Massage. Physio therapy.  Four years of consistent, intentional work before I ever considered med...

For almost 10 years, you taught women how to take care of their bodies. Somewhere in the middle of it, you stopped tending to your own soul. This week Sarah is telling the whole story. The decade in the fitness industry. The Tampa airport moment that took her right back to the gym she was fat shamed in a decade ago. The woman who looked her dead in the eyes in front of her four year old. The hour...

My name is Sarah. And for most of my life, I only knew that my name meant "princess." I didn't realize how much my story mirrored the woman I was named after. The Sarah in the Bible who laughed at God's promise, tried to manufacture her own miracle, and spent years in the becoming before the fulfillment ever arrived. The Becoming Podcast: Faithful & Unfinished. Episode 13. Grounding Scripture:...

For ten years, Sarah talked about bodies. Hers. Other women’s. She built a fitness business, a media platform, and a public identity on a movement she believed in. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, she stopped believing the version she was teaching. This week, she tells the truth about the decade. The fat-shaming at a women’s gym that pushed her into the work in the first place. Selling he...

Have you ever known that you were called to do something before you had a single piece of evidence to support it? This episode is for her. The woman who is faithful in the hidden season. Who keeps showing up when no one around her can see what she's building yet. Charity Power is a prophetic coach who helps women hear from God and walk into the purpose they have been carrying, sometimes for years,...

She cut eight inches off her hair. It was not about her hair. This episode is about the moment something shifts on the inside before anything changes on the outside. And about what happens when you finally let go of the thing you have been holding past the season it belonged to. Staying too long does not always look like stubbornness. Sometimes it looks like loyalty. Sometimes it looks like faithf...

She has always known she was meant for big stages. She has been ashamed of that for years. This episode is the one Sarah was afraid to make. Not because the story was too hard -- but because the dream was too big to say out loud without sounding like someone who had forgotten what her circumstances looked like. But the dream did not leave during the bankruptcy. It did not leave during the broken m...

Have you ever woken up feeling like you were too much and not enough at the exact same time? Like no matter which version of yourself showed up, it still wasn't right? This episode names the cycle that so many women are living inside without realizing it. We talk about where it starts, what it looks like in everyday life, and the one question that begins to interrupt it. Because the woman you keep...

We often wait until we are finished -- finished healing, finished losing the weight, finished figuring it out -- before we let ourselves be seen. But what if the messy middle is exactly where God wants to use us? In this episode of The Becoming Podcast: Faithful & Unfinished, Sarah Taylor sits down with her friend and photographer Shanika -- Captured by Shani. Shani has spent years behind the...

Do you have a date on the calendar that still feels like a wound? An anniversary of something painful, a birthday that reminds you how far behind you feel, a day that just aches every time it rolls around? In this episode of The Becoming Podcast: Faithful & Unfinished, Sarah Taylor brings receipts. She walks through four specific dates in her own life -- the wedding day, the day she lost her j...

What if rest is not the reward you get after doing enough -- but the foundation everything else is supposed to be built on? In this episode of The Becoming Podcast: Faithful & Unfinished, Sarah Taylor gets honest about what happened when she committed to a full year of rest. Not a weekend. A year. She shares what it actually felt like (spoiler: not peaceful at first), the guilt and anxiety tha...

Episode 4: "Who Are You When Nothing Is Happening?" Finding Your Identity in the Stillness We love being busy. We love having a title, a role, a thing we are building or working toward. But what happens when all of that goes quiet? In this episode of The Becoming Podcast, Sarah gets honest about one of the most disorienting parts of any healing journey: the season when nothing is happening on the...

What happens after you say yes to the nudge? We often expect immediate clarity, fireworks, or a clear path forward. But more often than not, obedience leads us straight into a season of stillness. In this episode, Sarah pulls back the curtain on the "free fall" -that disorienting time when the old door has closed but the new one hasn't opened. Drawing from her own pivot at age 40, Sarah reframes t...

This is for the woman who looks capable on the outside but feels disconnected on the inside. You don't need to wait until you break to start healing. In this episode of The Becoming Podcast , I sit down with my dear friend Julie-Anne to talk about the things we usually hide: functional depression, the heaviness of shame, and the beautiful necessity of "purpose mates".... Friends who remind you of...

Episode 1: The Becoming Podcast I used to think I was behind. After ending a 7 year relationship, bankruptcy, and losing the life I thought I was building, I realized something that changed everything: You are faithful, and you are unfinished, and that’s okay. In this premiere episode of The Becoming Podcast, we are stripping away the "fitness expert" label to talk about the real work...the work o...
