Podcasts about christian women

Fear and self-doubt can keep Christian women stuck, questioning their calling and hesitating to move forward. In this episode, Crysanne and Coryn sit down with life coach and host of the Confidence for Christian Women podcast, Nicole Naiker, to talk about what biblical confidence truly means. Nicole shares her journey from engineering to coaching, how faith helped her overcome fear, and why real confidence comes from knowing your identity in Christ — not external validation. Together, they discuss practical steps to quiet self-doubt, recognize comparison triggers, take small faith-filled actions, and lean on community and the Holy Spirit for guidance. If you've been feeling unsure of your next step, this conversation will encourage you to trust God and move forward with confidence.

Hey friend, As we step into January, I'm intentionally revisiting some of the most listened-to and most impactful conversations from the very beginning of Functional Medicine for Christian Women until now. This episode is one of them. If you've ever cut out foods, followed the “right” plan, stayed disciplined, and still felt stuck—or even worse than before—this conversation will feel very familiar. In this episode, I sat down with two women I deeply respect to talk honestly about why so many Christian women feel like they're doing everything “right” with their health and still not seeing lasting results. You'll hear from: Shaela Daugherty, host of the Simple Fitness Habits podcast Brittany Braswell, host of the Faith-Filled Food Freedom podcast Together, we talk candidly about what's really happening beneath the surface when health efforts stop working. In this episode, we cover: Why fad diets like keto, “no carbs,” or extreme clean eating can backfire on hormones, metabolism, and stress levels How chronic dieting can push the body into a survival state, raise cortisol, and make weight loss harder over time Why “I just need to be more disciplined” is not the real problem How diet culture fuels comparison, obsession, and shame instead of freedom in Christ The difference between quick-fix results and long-term, sustainable health What it actually looks like to surrender your health to the Lord and begin rebuilding trust with your body This was not a scripted or polished conversation. We hit record on a real, honest discussion—sharing stories from our own lives, from women we've walked alongside, and from what we see over and over again in Christian women who are exhausted from trying harder instead of being supported better. And if you need a little levity in the middle of a heavy topic, make sure you stay until the end. Shaela and I give Brittany a challenge that had all of us laughing—and it paints a pretty accurate picture of just how exhausting diet culture can be. As part of this January Reset, I encourage you to listen with fresh ears. Not to figure out what you should do next—but to notice what resonates, what brings relief, and what might be inviting you to slow down and support your body differently. Before you go…

Hey Friend, As we head into a new year, I wanted to pause and share something important with you. In this short episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what's coming next for the Functional Medicine for Christian Women podcast—and why 2026 will be the most intentional, focused, and supportive year yet. January will look a little different around here. Instead of brand-new weekly episodes, I'll be re-airing the five most impactful episodes from the podcast—episodes that listeners consistently tell me helped them finally understand what was going on in their bodies. Along with each re-aired episode, I'll also be sharing exciting updates about what's coming in the year ahead. In this episode, I share: Why January will be a reset and re-air month How the podcast is shifting in 2026 (and why) The five core pillars we'll be focusing on moving forward What you can expect in terms of education, tools, and conversations Why this is the most planned and prayerfully considered season of the podcast yet In 2026, the podcast will be centered around the topics I'm asked about most in client appointments and conversations, including: Blood sugar and metabolic stability Gut health, digestion, and inflammation Stress, cortisol, and nervous system safety Hormones and thyroid as downstream systems Faith, stewardship, and sustainable health We'll also be bringing in thoughtful guests and strategic partners to help you feel informed and confident as you navigate topics like blood sugar balance, hormone health, gut health, GLP-1 medications, and glucose monitors—always through a calm, Biblical, and functional medicine lens. If you've been craving clarity, simplicity, and a more sustainable approach to your health, you're in the right place. Thank you for being here, for listening, and for trusting me to walk alongside you in this season. January is a reset—and what's coming next is something I can't wait to share. Stay tuned. In grace + health, Lacy Lain Before you go…

Does being “the strong one” actually make you a better leader—or is it quietly destroying your joy, your confidence, and your capacity as a high-achieving Christian woman in business?If you're a Christian woman in leadership, a faith-driven entrepreneur, or a high-capacity professional who's used to holding everything together, this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast with Kerri Roberts will speak directly to you. You'll learn why hiding your needs is costing you relationally, spiritually, and professionally—and what godly success really looks like when your strength and your humanity live in the same room.Kerri Roberts, Christian business and HR consultant, unpacks the emotional, cultural, and spiritual layers behind why high-achieving Christian women default to “strength,” even when it leads to burnout, isolation, and under-recognition. Through Scripture, data, leadership psychology, and real-world corporate stories, she helps you see how embracing your needs is actually a mark of maturity—not weakness.If you're ready to lead with clarity, identity, and confidence rooted in Christ—not performance—this episode shows you where to begin.Kerri shares her own journey as a strong, assertive, high-capacity woman and reveals the hidden costs that come with carrying more than God ever asked you to. You'll learn how faith-driven leadership, emotional health, and unapologetic communication can transform your business, your relationships, and your sense of purpose. Whether you're negotiating compensation, navigating gender norms, leading a team, or carrying the mental load at home, this conversation brings freedom, Scripture, and strategy together for the Christian woman in business who is tired of doing it all alone.Key TakeawaysHigh-capacity Christian women often hide their needs, leading to burnout, invisibility, and diminished leadership impact.Gender norms and workplace expectations still shape how strong women are perceived, especially in male-dominated leadership environments.Scripture affirms the strength, wisdom, and voice of Christian women, including the boldness of the Proverbs 31 woman and the equal worth declared in Galatians 3:28.Being “the strong one” becomes unhealthy when it turns into martyrdom, self-silencing, or over-functioning in relationships or work.Healthy, faith-driven leadership requires preparation, assertive communication, boundaries, data-driven negotiation, and emotional honesty.SponsorThis episode is brought to you by HR in a Box — the complete people-operations system for small Christian-led businesses who want healthy culture, biblical leadership, legal compliance, and scalable HR foundations.

Why does weight loss feel so hard, even when you love Jesus, pray, and genuinely want to change?In this episode, we uncover the real reason many Christian women feel stuck in the same weight loss patterns, despite years of trying harder, praying more, and consuming endless advice. This is not about food, willpower, or discipline alone. It is about deception, misplaced authority, and spiritual misunderstanding.You will learn how subtle lies shape beliefs, how authority actually works in the life of a believer, and why knowing the truth is not the same as living in it. We expose the quiet voices that pressure, negotiate, and accuse, and we reveal why weight loss becomes possible when you stop fighting in your own strength and start standing in the authority Christ has already given you.If you have ever wondered why your effort has not matched your desire, this episode will bring clarity, conviction, and hope. This is a discipleship conversation for Christian women who are ready to stop cycling through frustration and start walking in truth, obedience, and spiritual authority.Learn more about working with me here.______christian weight loss, christian women weight loss, faith based weight loss, spiritual weight loss, christian life coaching for weight loss, weight loss and faith, christian discipleship and weight loss, spiritual authority and weight loss, christian mindset for weight loss, emotional eating and faith, breaking food addiction christian, weight loss for christian women, biblical weight loss, faith over food, weight loss breakthrough christian, renewing your mind weight loss, self control and the holy spirit, obedience and weight loss, christian health podcast, christian wellness podcast

Click to Text Thoughts on Today's EpisodeCan you believe we've wrapped up 24 seasons of the Grace Health Podcast?! The journey has been nothing short of incredible. For those new here, I typically run three seasons a year, each with its own flavor—sometimes focused, sometimes a bit more “loosey-goosey,” but always with the goal of bringing you value, encouragement, and practical health wisdom.I love doing these season recaps for two reasons. First, if you're new, it's a great way to get a high-level overview of what we're about. I know when I discover a new podcast, I look for recap episodes to get a sense of the content and see if it's a good fit. Second, even my most loyal listeners can't catch every episode. Life happens! These recaps let you see what you might have missed and revisit topics that resonate.We're about to hit a major milestone—500 episodes! I'd love your ideas on how to celebrate. If you have thoughts, please use the “click to text” feature in your podcast player or episode description. And as we head into the holidays, remember: the best gifts aren't always wrapped. Sharing an episode with a friend is a wonderful way to show you care.My latest recommended ways to nourish and move your body, mind and spirit: Nourished Notes Bi-Weekly Newsletter Be Strong and Vibrant!

Does God actually like you - or just love you because He has to?If you're a high-achieving Christian woman in business or leadership who feels like God is constantly evaluating, correcting, and disappointed with you, this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast with Christian business & HR consultant Kerri Roberts is for you. We'll unpack why so many Christian women in business and faith-driven leadership feel spiritually “behind,” emotionally exhausted, and secretly convinced that God only tolerates them - and how Scripture says something very different.In this solo episode, Kerri invites Christian women in leadership, entrepreneurs, and ambitious, faith-driven professionals into a deeper look at God's heart. Drawing from her own story of leaving corporate life, downshifting to a Missouri farm, and walking through therapy, tapping, and spiritual unraveling, she reframes godly success as emotional health, identity, and spiritual confidence rooted in being liked and delighted in by God.You'll hear how attachment research, childhood patterns, and church culture can wire us to believe God is more corrective than relational - and how passages like Zephaniah 3, Psalm 18, John 15, and the prodigal son in Luke 15 reveal a God who rejoices over you, runs toward you, and calls you friend. Kerri walks through practical ways to rewire your nervous system and your imagination so that your leadership, business, marriage, and parenting flow out of being deeply enjoyed by God, not frantically trying to earn His approval.If you're a faith-driven entrepreneur or Christian woman in business who's tired of constant internal performance reviews, this conversation will help you experience God's delight, embrace your God-given limits, and step into more grounded, joyful, godly success without burning out.Tune in to hear:High-capacity Christian women often confuse responsibility with identity. We project our caregivers onto God. Scripture shows a God who delights, not just tolerates. Your limits are not a failure—they're a feature. Practical practices can reshape how you see God. Sponsor: HR in a BoxIf you're a small to mid-sized business owner who loves Jesus and wants to lead your people with excellence, HR in a Box is Kerri's signature, done-with-you HR system. It helps Christian entrepreneurs and leaders build healthy teams, fair pay structures, and sustainable people operations - without losing your soul (or your weekends) to HR chaos. It's built so you can steward your team well and still have margin for your faith, family, and emotional health.Resources & MentionsDevotional: You Were Never Meant to Do It All – A 40-Day Devotional on the Goodness of Being Human by Kelly Kapic (mentioned as part of Kerri's current spiritual + emotional formation work). https://amzn.to/4iicNKYIf this episode softened how you picture God or opened even a small door toward believing that He actually likes you, don't keep that to yourself.Subscribe to Don't Waste the Chaos on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify so you don't miss the upcoming episodes in this series on identity, emotional health, and godly success.Share this episode with a Christian woman in business or leadership who loves God but secretly believes He's mostly disappointed in her.Join Kerri's Monday Email List for deeper teaching on identity, leadership, and spiritual confidence for Christian women in leadership and faith-driven entrepreneurs: saltmidadvisors.com/contactSupport the show

So many of us are carrying quiet, heavy lies about motherhood — lies about being “enough,” doing “enough,” or somehow always falling short. And those lies don't just drain us… they disconnect us from the gentleness of God's heart.Today, I'm joined by my friend and author Hallie Dye to unpack some of the biggest lies Christian women believe about motherhood and the truth Scripture offers in their place. We talk about the pressure to be limitless, why God designed us with needs on purpose, and how to “fail well” without letting hard moments define our identity.If you've been moving through your days with that low hum of shame or pressure, this conversation is a deep breath of grace.To connect with Hallie, head over to @halliedye and @the.saltworks on IG!Get Hallie's book: https://amzn.to/3XwI43o Listen to The Saltworks podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-saltworks/id1646681744SUPPORT BY WORDS: https://buymeacoffee.com/bywordsMy favorite Bible studies + devotionals - HANNAHHUGHES10  for 10% off: https://thedailygraceco.com?dt_id=300773 CONNECT:hello@thehannahhughes.comhttps://www.instagram.com/thehannahhughes 

Hey Friend, If food has felt confusing or heavy lately, this week's podcast episode was created just for you. So many women have been taught that balancing blood sugar means counting, tracking, restricting, or starting over again. But that kind of pressure only creates more stress… and stress is one of the biggest disruptors of hormones and energy. In this short episode of Functional Medicine for Christian Women, I'm sharing a simple, freeing approach to blood sugar balance that doesn't involve counting macros, calories, or following another rigid plan. Inside the episode, we talk about: • What blood sugar balance really is (and what it's not) • Why diet culture makes this harder than it needs to be • A simple framework for eating that supports hormones and energy • How nourishment creates safety for your body instead of stress And to support you even more, I've also created a free, printable tool you can start using right away: • A 1-page blood sugar guide You can find both inside my Holistic Health Hub, which is completely free and filled with functional medicine tools for women and children. Friend, you don't need more rules around food. You need rhythms that support your body and bring peace back to the table. In grace + health, Lacy Lain Before you go…

Have you ever felt the deep desire to serve God, but had no idea where to begin? Maybe you've prayed, “Lord, I want to follow You… but I don't know my calling,” and felt unsure, unqualified, or unclear about your next steps.   In this heartfelt episode, Petia opens up about her early walk with Jesus — a time of longing to honor God while feeling uncertain about what He was asking her to do. Through her story, you'll discover that calling isn't something you chase. It's something God reveals gradually, gently, and faithfully as you walk with Him.   Inside this episode, we explore: Why your God-given design gives clues to your calling How calling is *seasonal* and shifts as your life shifts The power of stewarding what God has already placed in your hands Why small, imperfect steps of obedience create clarity How God confirms your calling through peace, Scripture, and aligned opportunities   This episode is designed to bring you peace, clarity, and the reassurance that you cannot “miss” your calling — because God is the one who shapes it and reveals it.   Scriptures referenced:  Psalm 139  Luke 16:10  1 Corinthians 14:33    CTA:  Send Petia a DM @petiakolibova and share what calling God is stirring in you.  Join the Deeply Devoted Bible Study group for community, accountability, and spiritual growth.

Nicole’s journey has taken her through pageants, the Miss America stage, social media influence, and even to competing on Next Level Chef with Gordon Ramsay.

Practical Tips for Freedom from Comparison: Breath prayers and staying in constant conversation with God Practicing gratitude to shift focus away from “not enough” Setting healthy boundaries with social media Keeping an eternal perspective during mundane or behind-the-scenes seasons Life Skills and Pageant Myths: Nicole debunks stereotypes about the pageant world, explains how it developed her confidence and skills, and how she focused on the positive outcomes rather than just winning.

Join us as we interview Dr. Sandra Glahn, professor at the Dallas Theological Seminary, about her wonderful book, Nobody's Mother: Artemis of the Ephesians in Antiquity and the New Testament.  Nobody's Mother is a scholarly re-examination of the cult of Artemis of Ephesus and the cultural world surrounding early Christianity—especially the world behind 1 Timothy 2, a New Testament passage long used to restrict women's leadership. Were the Apostle Paul's writings in 1 Timothy 2 a response to the nature and power of the cult of Artemis?  Tune in as we explore this fascinating topic.Sean Marlon Newcombe hosts.

INTRODUCTION: If you've ever wondered whether your favorite holiday desserts can actually support your health instead of draining your energy, this episode is for you. Today we break down the difference between a traditional pumpkin pie and a paleo pumpkin pie and explore what each ingredient does inside your body. This episode is perfect for Christian women who want to honor God with their health, enjoy delicious foods without guilt, and learn simple, natural ways to feel better. You'll learn: The hidden issues inside common pumpkin pie ingredients Cleaner, healthier swaps that support energy, gut health, and hormones The surprising nutritional benefits of pumpkin and warming spices How to enjoy food with freedom, not legalism Why God-designed whole foods nourish your body on purpose TIME-STAMPED HIGHLIGHTS: 00:00 – A quick invitation to the Reset Your Energy Workshop 00:30 – The pumpkin pie experiment and trying a paleo version 01:01 – Why healthy ingredient swaps matter 01:29 – What's inside a regular pumpkin pie 02:22 – The issue with dairy, GMOs, and bloating 03:20 – Why vegetable oils drain your energy 04:17 – Breaking down the paleo pumpkin pie recipe 04:47 – The healing benefits of almonds 05:14 – Coconut oil's antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory power 05:44 – The nutritional benefits of pumpkin 06:15 – Maple syrup vs. brown sugar 06:45 – Anti-inflammatory and gut-healing benefits of warming spices 08:42 – Why Christian women should cook with more spices 09:11 – Avoiding food legalism and confusion 09:40 – Returning to God's design for nourishing foods KEY TAKEAWAYS: God-designed whole foods support your energy, hormones, gut health, and healing. Holiday desserts don't have to wreck your health. Simple swaps can lower inflammation and support your body. Spices like cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, and allspice are powerful natural medicines. Vegetable oils and processed ingredients can drain your energy and create inflammation. You can enjoy food with freedom while still being aware of ingredients. Pumpkin is a nutrient-rich superfood full of vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber. HEALTHY PUMPKIN PIE INGREDIENTS THAT BOOST ENERGY: If you're searching for a clean eating pumpkin pie that's gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined-sugar-free, you're in the right place. Paleo pumpkin pie uses simple, God-made ingredients that reduce inflammation, support digestion, balance blood sugar, and naturally boost your energy. These healthier swaps include almond flour, almond butter, coconut oil, coconut milk, and maple syrup — all nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich, and easier on the gut than conventional baking ingredients. Keywords included: healthy pumpkin pie recipe, paleo dessert swaps, clean eating for Christian women, natural anti-inflammatory foods, boost energy naturally, healthy holiday desserts, Christian holistic health A BIBLICAL APPROACH TO FOOD AND WELLNESS: Food was never meant to stress us out. God designed whole foods to nourish, strengthen, and bring joy. When we choose ingredients that honor His design — plants grown well, animals raised well, spices rich in natural healing compounds — our bodies respond with energy, clarity, and peace. Good food is one of the sweetest ways God provides for His daughters.

What does it look like to grow a thriving business without the hustle — one that honors God, your family, and your peace? In this powerful episode of The Journey to Becoming Podcast, I sit down with Stefanie Gass — Christian business and podcast coach, boy mom, seven-figure CEO, and host of the top 20 globally ranked show, Online Business for Christian Women.
