Think again.In this powerful episode, Stefanie Gass, host of the Online Business for Christian Women Podcast, joins us to talk about something that might hit closer to home than you realize—even if business isn't your thing.Stefanie's story is raw and redemptive. From finance executive to top 1% network marketer, she had everything the world says should make you happy: the money, the recognition, the $50,000 bonus checks. But after walking off stage in front of 20,000 people at the peak of her success, she felt... nothing. Just emptiness.What happened next changed everything. Stefanie finally cried out to God—really cried out—for the first time in decades.

Are you somebody who needs ample time alone? Time alone in your own house? But you judge yourself for having this need?Are you somebody who can feel or sense when somebody else is present in the home, even if they're not making any sound? And even though you love "your people" this takes a toll on you?In this episode I talk about giving yourself permission to tend to your own needs by giving yourself alone time. Or permission to give yourself the spaciousness or the rest that you require in order for you to process inwardly and thrive in the season of your life.This is particularly relevant, I find, for HSPs, neurodivergent folks, strong introverts, people who identify as empaths, or deep processors and big feelers.And when the world is screaming for your attention, and everything feels urgent, this need for alone time or inward listening and processing becomes even more critical.You can give yourself permission to respect and trust this aspect of your wiring. And even if circumstances are less than ideal, you can get creative about meeting this need.Letting go of judgment and honouring your wiring in this way will help you feel healthier and happier which will then benefit every other area of your life. AND it will allow you to more effectively use your voice or areas of strength/gifting to advocate for the world you want to live in.ResourcesLearn to trust your creative process or your pace: https://www.alifeinprogress.ca/trust-yourself-and-your-unique-creative-process/Free for the month of February - The Make Space for Joy Workshop: https://www.alifeinprogress.ca/joy-workshop/

They break down how pain, nervous system regulation, and body alignment all influence whether the body can truly rest and recover.This conversation reframes sleep as an outcome of overall health, not something you fix in isolation.

Guest: Christy OsborneRole: Senior Sobriety CoachBook: Love Life Sober: A 40-Day Alcohol Fast to Rediscover Your Joy, Improve Your Health, and Renew Your MindWebsite: lovelifesober.co.uk

In this episode of the Rest, Eat, Move podcast, Matt breaks down the often overcomplicated topic of inflammation, explaining that while acute inflammation is essential for healing, chronic inflammation—described as excessive, ongoing “heat” in the body—is at the root of nearly 90% of modern disease, including obesity, diabetes, cancer, hormonal imbalance, and mental health challenges. He emphasizes that food alone is not always the primary cause and highlights common symptoms such as skin issues, joint pain, digestive problems, low energy, weight gain, poor sleep, anxiety, and weakened immunity. Matt outlines five key contributors to chronic inflammation: unmanaged stress, insufficient sleep, a highly processed and acidic diet, omega-3 deficiency, and lack of daily movement (or over-exercising without recovery). Ultimately, he stresses that lowering inflammation requires a holistic, habit-based approach rather than quick fixes, empowering listeners to reclaim their health by addressing stress, sleep, nutrition, movement, and lifestyle balance.

Plus, new findings about statins and breast cancer.

“When You’re Not Out of Control—Just Tired of Surviving” In this episode of Faith Over Fear, Carol sits down with Christy Osborne, author of Love Life Sober, for an honest, compassionate conversation about exhaustion, emotional numbness, and the quiet ways many women cope just to get through the day. This isn’t a conversation about hitting rock bottom or losing control. It’s about the woman who looks “fine” on the outside—but feels tired, flat, and disconnected from joy on the inside. Christy shares her personal journey through an alcohol fast—not as a self-improvement project, but as a brave act of curiosity and care. (Download the free companion guide for this episode here.) Together, Carol and Christy explore: Why alcohol (or other numbing habits) often function as a solution, not the real problem What surfaces emotionally and spiritually when numbing is removed How grief, fatigue, and long-buried feelings often point to unmet needs—not personal failure The lies that grow louder in silence—and how awareness and Scripture can interrupt them with grace Where Jesus meets us most clearly when we feel exposed, weary, and emotionally honest How joy can return—not as escape, but as presence, embodiment, and safety If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not out of control—I’m just so tired,” this episode is for you. Resource referenced: Love Life Sober: A 40-Day Alcohol Fast to Rediscover Your Joy, Improve Your Health, and Renew Your Mind Listener Reflective Questions Where in my life have I been using something—even something socially acceptable—to soften, numb, or survive instead of truly rest? If I’m honest, what emotions do I work hardest to avoid feeling—and why might those emotions feel unsafe to me? Have I been interpreting my exhaustion as failure, when it may actually be information about my soul’s needs? What lies get loud for me when life slows down or distractions are removed—and how do those lies shape my sense of identity? How has my definition of joy been shaped by escape rather than presence—and what quieter forms of joy might God be inviting me to notice? What would it look like to believe I can feel deeply and be safe with God—right here, not after I “fix” myself?

Click to Text Thoughts on Today's EpisodeWhat does it look like to navigate mental health struggles while living out your faith?It's a question many of us carry—sometimes silently. And it's one I was honored to explore in this week's conversation with Carla Arges.Carla's story isn't neat or easy. She experienced childhood trauma, homelessness at 14, misdiagnoses for years, and eventually received an accurate diagnosis of bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder just six years ago.But here's what moved me most: Carla talks about thriving, not just surviving. And she does it in a way that's gentle, honest, and deeply rooted in partnership with the Holy Spirit.Carla Arges is a mental health coach, podcaster, and writer who helps Christian women navigate trauma and mental illness with grace and truth. After experiencing childhood trauma, homelessness, and a journey through misdiagnoses, Carla was accurately diagnosed with bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder six years ago. Through partnering with the Holy Spirit, therapy, medication, and holistic healing practices, she has moved from surviving to thriving—and now equips other women to do the same.Carla is the host of the Affirming Truth podcast and a content writer for the Bible app, where she creates bite-sized, accessible devotionals for women struggling with mental health. She offers courses on nervous system regulation and biblically based boundaries, and provides one-on-one coaching to help women integrate faith, healing, and practical tools for everyday thriving.In our conversation, you'll hear:Why a diagnosis is information, not identityThe role of medication and therapy in faith-based healingHow to regulate your nervous system in practical waysWhy thriving isn't about living on the mountaintop all the timeHow God doesn't waste our pain—He redeems it for purposeConnect with Carla:Website: carlaArges.comPodcast: Affirming Truth (available on all podcast platforms and YouTube)Bible App: Search for plans by Carla ArgesLearn More about Moving Forward TogetherApply by January 23 My latest recommended ways to nourish and move your body, mind and spirit: Nourished Notes Bi-Weekly Newsletter Be Strong and Vibrant!

Click to Text Thoughts on Today's EpisodeOur episode today explores how the same physical activity can serve completely different purposes depending on your intention behind it. We challenge the wellness industry's constant pressure to "go harder" and achieve maximum intensity every single day, suggesting it's time to release that mentality. Instead, let's go after a grace-based approach rooted in freedom rather than legalism. We are wired for freedom by God!By pre-deciding your intention before exercise—whether that's challenging your cardiovascular system, gently moving for mental health, building strength, or simply clearing your head—you can stay focused on what you truly need rather than falling into comparison or guilt. The key is being honest with yourself about what you need while giving yourself permission to adjust when necessary, recognizing that backing off isn't failure—it's listening to your body with wisdom and discernment.Main points discussed:1. Macro Why vs. Micro Why2. Examples of Micro Whys 3. Saying Goodbye to "Go Harder" 4. Freedom Through Grace (Drawing from Galatians 5:1)5. Examples of Micro Whys 6.

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.

Intermittent fasting isn't just about calories—it's about timing. Michael J. Wilkinson, M.D., F.A.C.C., F.N.L.A., explains how time-restricted eating aligns daily food intake with the body's natural circadian rhythms. He shares insights from animal studies, clinical trials, and UC San Diego research showing how consolidating meals into an 8–10 hour window can improve glucose control, blood pressure, and metabolic health. Wilkinson highlights why earlier eating windows may work best, what makes studies succeed or fail, and how these findings point to practical strategies for preventing cardiometabolic disease and supporting healthy aging.

Click to Text Thoughts on Today's EpisodeForget the matching workout sets, the perfectly planned gym sessions, and the hour-long commitment that never happens. Here's the plot twist: One minute of vigorous movement = 40% lower risk of premature death.Yes, one minute. The same amount of time it takes to microwave leftovers. We overcomplicate everything, including exercise, when we just need to show up for ourselves. From this episode on "Fitness Snacking", I pray you learn to embrace short workouts as a legitimate and effective approach to fitness, particularly for women in perimenopause and menopause. Main topics today:1.  The Power of Short Workouts ("Fitness Snacking") 2.  Key Benefits 3.  Why Short Workouts Work 4.  Practical Implementation Options Links Discussed:YouTube: @amyconnell (psst subscribe if you haven't and like the episodes…it's super helpful!)10-Minute WorkoutsResearch for Today's EpisodeOne-minute bursts of activity during daily tasks could prolong your life, finds studyAnalysis: Short bursts of physical activity during daily life may lower risk of premature deathShort, intense bursts of exercise more effective after stroke than steady, moderate exerciseMy latest recommended ways to nourish and move your body, mind and spirit: Nourished Notes Bi-Weekly Newsletter Be Strong and Vibrant!

Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt stuck with your own body—in a similar way you’ve felt stuck with alcohol?That exhausting push-pull. The promises. The shame. The “why do I keep doing this?” on repeat. If that sounds familiar, this conversation is for you. For the woman who’s tried willpower, plans, promises, and prayers—yet still feels stuck in the cycle of body image battles, emotional eating, and quiet self-criticism. Friend, you are not alone. And you are not broken. Leanne joins us to share her powerful story of moving from food addiction and shame to true healing—rooted in both neuroscience and the unshakable love of God. What once felt like a personal failure of discipline became a holy revelation: real change happens when we understand our nervous system, renew our minds, and invite God into the process with us. In this episode, we talk honestly about how self-image shapes our choices, why “knowing better” isn’t the same as healing, and how faith and neuroscience beautifully work together to bring lasting freedom. Just like with alcohol, you’ll hear how the breakthrough didn’t come from trying harder—but from partnering with God differently. You’ll also hear how Leanne learned to separate who she is from what she struggled with—and how that shift opened the door to peace, empowerment, and a new identity grounded in Christ. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep doing the very thing you swore you wouldn’t—whether with food, alcohol, or anything else—this episode will remind you: you’re not failing—you’re in formation. And God isn’t standing at a distance. He’s right in the middle of your becoming.

​​This week, we’re leaning into the season of Thanksgiving, and talking about how gratitude really does change everything.

John Jubilee was this week's guest on Success Profiles Radio. He is the founder of Energized Health, which was named to the Inc 5000 list of America's fastest growing companies for the second year in a row. His faith-based approach to wellness has helped thousands of people 55+ reclaim their energy, reverse symptoms of chronic disease, and live life with renewed purpose. We discussed why our society is less healthy than ever before, the importance of proper cellular hydration, why simply drinking water isn't enough to solve the problem, and how he can help anyone improve their health in 88 days or less. In addition, we talked about what is wrong with the current diet plans on the market, how improper cellular hydration affects our energy and stress levels, how a lack of sleep impacts health, and how fasting can clean up our cells. Finally, we discussed how mental health affects cellular health, how health is impacted on a spiritual and emotional level, and how we don't have to accept genetics as a reason for poor health because our DNA can be reprogrammed.

This week’s episode is a little different. We’re pulling back the curtain on one of our BJDW Community Masterclasses, the kind of deep, beautiful, heart-level conversations we host each month with special guests to encourage our community gals on the journey to freedom. We’re joined by Sharon Hodde Miller, author of Free of Me and Gazing at God, to unpack the root of insecurity, and why we often feel insecure when we’re standing on something shaky. Sharon shares how our culture has taught us to treat insecurity by focusing more on ourselves… when the real freedom comes from shifting our gaze to God. She talks about why self-focus is exhausting, what true biblical self-denial looks like (hint: it’s not self-rejection), and how to spot when we’ve made something about us that was never meant to be. If you’ve ever found yourself striving for validation, wrestling with comparison, or feeling “not enough” in your faith, parenting, or purpose, this conversation is going to offer you so much encouragement!.

This bonus episode was recorded with the podcast But Jesus Drank Wine and Other Stories that Keep us Stuck. The hosts, Meade and Christy, are two “retired over-drinkers” turned Jesus-loving sobriety coaches. On the BJDW podcast, they dig into the stories and beliefs that kept them stuck in the cycle of over-drinking, including the ever-popular, “But Jesus drank wine?” Through grace-filled conversations about faith, sobriety, and life beyond alcohol, Meade and Christy bring honesty, humor, and vulnerability to every episode. Their goal? To help women discover that freedom is possible—not just from alcohol, but from any habit, hurt, or hang-up holding them back.

Have you ever wondered why traditional recovery works for some people—but didn’t quite fit for you? This week, we’re pulling back the curtain with our friend and BJDW team member Heather whose journey to freedom started inside a rehab program that followed a 12-step model…and ended in a deeper, Jesus-led transformation. Heather opens up about what she learned, what didn’t resonate, and how she found freedom—not just sobriety—through faith, community, and truth. If you’ve ever felt out of place in traditional recovery, or wrestled with words like powerless and alcoholic, this conversation is going to set something free inside you.

Today’s episode is one of those that reminds us why we do this! We’re joined by our beloved community member Margie, who shares her breathtaking story of redemption — a story marked by God’s fingerprints in every moment, from early struggles with alcohol to the steady unfolding of peace, purpose, and true freedom in Christ. What began decades ago as a quiet search for belonging became a story of divine pursuit — one where God never stopped showing up, even when shame, anxiety, and vodka tried to take the lead. Margie opens up about the hard years, the miracle moments, and the countless little ways God met her — sometimes in spilled drinks, sometimes in worship songs, and always in love. Whether you’re still in the messy middle or walking in freedom, this conversation will help you start spotting God’s fingerprints in your own story, because He’s closer than you think.
