I may have convinced you why carbs are not the enemy in my book Your Worthy Body, but you may still feel like they are something to avoid...especially if you feel addicted to them.
Today I'm sharing some of the brain and body science behind this, and delineate between the different types of carbs...and the Disney analogy associated with them.

How to be encouraging 🥰 without causing toxic ☠️positivity with Dr. Patrice Berry

Graced Health for Christian Women Over 40

04/12/22 • 53 min

Have a question? Click here.

One of the things I struggle with as a Jesus follower is holding space for people who are hurting or going through a difficult time and also being a light or encouraging. As I’ve been paying attention to the mental health professionals, I’ve been learning about the concept of Toxic Positivity. And to be honest, I’ve been guilty of this...probably even more than I realize.

When I wanted to explore this conversation, I knew just the right person to reach out to. Clinical Psychologist Dr. Patrice Berry joined the show in season 12 when we focused on transitioning out of quarantine, and has discussed Toxic Positivity on her own podcast, Legacy Moments.

We spend time today defining toxic positivity, where the church is failing people in their mental health, and how to find encouragement in scripture and at the same time hold space for the difficulties or pain others or ourselves may be in.
We discuss

The psychological benefits of being positive
How to let someone know you are thinking of them and honoring the difficult space they are in
Creating emotional boundaries with people we deeply care about
Where the church is failing people in their mental health
How to find encouragement in scripture and at the same time hold space for the difficulties others or ourselves are having
What toxic positivity is
Alternative responses to toxic positivity
Alternative words to “I’m sorry for your loss”

You have no idea how hard it was not to talk shop in this episode! Today Personal Trainer Kasey Shuler joins the show to discuss Intuitive Eating Principle #9: Exercise and Feel the Difference. As much as I love discussing the specifics of movement and exercise, the mindset behind it is even more important.
One of my favorite quotes from today's episode:

If we're supposed to be the light of the world, we want to be confident to show up ... and step into the joy of the Lord as our strength.
We discuss:

What Principle 9 - Exercise and Feel the Difference Means
Connecting this principle to Nenemiah 8:10: The joy of the Lord is your strength
Joy is the expression of grace
Separating our food from exercise
How to start getting comfortable with exercising less than what you think you should do

As I mentioned, I highly recommend Kasey's newsletter.You can sign up for it here.

Why the fortune of brokenness can enhance your relationship with God

Graced Health for Christian Women Over 40

05/09/23 • 37 min

Have a question? Click here.

In my conversation with Reverend Matthew Hogan today, we explore some themes about Christianity that exist, but aren’t the things Instagram posts are made of. These are hard and heavy topics, but important ones as we fully explore the faithfulness and love of God, especially outside of our American perspective.

Reverend Matthew Hogan has over 30 years of experience in ministry and counseling, having worked as a pastor, interim pastor, and counselor. He is a Certified Temperament Pastoral Counselor, Licensed Pastoral Counselor, and is a member of the National Christian Counselors Association. Currently, he runs Grace for Individual and Family Therapy (GIFT) through which he provides faith-based therapy for individual clients, couples, and groups of any faith background online.

We discuss:

The Christian "elephant in the room" and what it is
The fortune of brokenness Matthew and his wife experienced in early adulthood and how that impacted his relationship with God
God’s faithfulness and presence even as we weave in and out of our focus on him
Encouragement for the person who things “I’ve been away so long I don’t think God would want me to come back”
Authentically rejoicing even when we don't feel like it
