About this listen
Holly shares her personal journey through religious rigidity, chronic illness, and body shame, toward a grounded faith where healing flows from identity in Christ—not perfectionism. With wisdom rooted in Scripture, neuroscience, and lived experience, she exposes the dangers of spiritualized diet culture and invites listeners into a deeper, gentler view of health rooted in truth, not trends.
They explore the subtle idols of body image, the power of nervous system regulation, and the beauty of being Spirit-led in nutrition, movement, and life. Whether you’re burned out from “doing all the right things” or just yearning to honor your body as a temple without shame, this episode offers a new framework of grace, stewardship, and trust.
