Connecting, encouraging, and inspiring women on their journey of a healthy lifestyle and a deeper walk with God.

Today's podcast is a little different than the previous ones where I focused more on teaching and getting you information about low carb, sugar addiction, and building this new lifestyle on a foundation of our faith in God. These are more of a prequel to each of my 5-part group coaching sessions that I'm starting in person this week. So, the ladies attending my in-person groups will be listening to this before the class to prepare them for the group coaching sessions, though I believe there will still be plenty of encouragement and inspiration for anyone listening to these podcasts.

When temptation and cravings start trying to convince us to forget about the decisions we made and our commitments to the health of our spirit, soul, and body.
