Have you ever felt like a fake? If you said yes, I can emphatically say, me too. In fact, I felt this way more than I even realized — until recently.

About three months ago I was on a walk. The gift of the gorgeous day was a bit lost on me as I murmured grumbled prayers over a series of physical injuries that were plaguing me. I felt as though every form of exercise, even walking sometimes, was being taken from me. I simply couldn’t understand why the Lord seemed to be stripping away every...

When it comes to nutrition and fitness, knowing what’s the “best” approach can feel confusing. Especially because so often there are opposing, even controversial opinions. It can get overwhelming. Thankfully, there is one subject that most every health expert agrees is beneficial. That is strength training.

With the world at our fingertips (smart phones), we don't have to look very far to feel bombarded by all of the food "rules" and opinions about what to eat. If you are like me, you probably feel fed up with all of the contrary opinions and extremes that are being marketed as fact. The truth is, I have seen far to many women (including myself), hurt by diets, food “rules” and a culture that idolizes body and food. I believe we enjoy food in its place and care for our bodies without making it...

“Joy to the world.”

“It’s the most wonderful time of the year.”

“Have yourself a Merry little Christmas, and let your heart be light!”

Despite your best intentions and aspirations, do "joyful" and "jolly" feel a bit out of reach? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, I’ve really been spending time with...

When it comes to the Holidays, we all want to be able to relax and enjoy time with family, friends, and co-workers. It is true that the Holidays are about more than our favorite special food and beverage indulgences, but it is also not realistic to think we need to avoid our favorite splurges entirely.

Most of us end up with more than enough parties and gatherings to satisfy those Holiday cravings, and that's where it can often get tricky. If we aren't mindful about our choices, by the time...

Making positive changes is so exciting in the beginning stages, but it can quickly become overwhelming for any number of reasons.

First, it could be difficult to know exactly what action to take. Just do a google search for "how to XYZ" and you'll find what to do, what not to do, and then someone else will tell you to do the exact opposite! There's so many different thoughts and ideas from experts about what is the "right way" to approach something that analysis paralysis can take over. When...
