“Thankfully, the story does not end there. I figured it out. And God's absolute, total grace and faithfulness showed me the way and led me to the right help.

Kristin Fickes’ story is relatable, and her experience is a gift. She’s someone we're linking arms with at FINDINGbalance in this fight against eating disorders. It's a Kingdom campaign and we're on it together.

In this conversation, we’re talking about how the entire family is impacted when someone is walking through recovery from an eating disorder, the difference it makes to have Christ-centered care as a part of treatment, and what parents can do to ensure any siblings feel included and supported.

Siblings and other children in the household are very significant members of the family unit that need to be included for the healing of the whole system. Be sure to check the show notes for additional resources wherever you are on this journey.

Chrissy sits down with podcast growth strategist (and our incredible producer) Leah Bryant for an honest conversation about food freedom, body image, faith, and healing. Leah shares her story of growing up in 90s diet culture, the moment God began shifting how she saw herself, and why freedom in Christ isn’t achieved...it’s received.

“Every yes, no matter how small, is a step toward freedom.”

That is why we exist as an organization. That's why this podcast exists as one of the programs we provide to create safe spaces for women to walk toward freedom in Christ-centered community.

We’re so grateful to Leah for joining us, being so real, and openly sharing her journey and how God is meeting her in all of this.

From a young age, many girls are exposed to body image issues and eating habits that may not be the most uplifting. Years go by, and that young girl shows her daughter the very same habits. But it is possible to break the cycles passed down from generation to generation with God’s love, grace, and support.

Chantia Sturman, licensed therapist and founder of Darling, Arise (which you’ll hear more about), joins Chrissy to share how moms can build body confidence in daughters, and even find healing in the process.

You’ll discover the best time to start having food and body image conversations with daughters, the power of curiosity in challenging moments, and small yet powerful shifts you can start with today!

As you’ll hear, what you model matters so much more than what you say.

If anything in this conversation stood out to you, we’d love to hear! You can text us using the link above. It’s one-way (translation: we can’t reply), but we read every message, and you might just hear an answer to your question on a future episode.
