About this listen

 Do you struggle with low energy and catch yourself reminiscing about when you were “young” and able to keep up? Are you overwhelmed by even having to THINK about what it’d take to lose weight? Do you mindlessly snack and give in to late night cravings? Are you bogged down by the shame that comes with knowing what to do, but not being able to get yourself to do it consistently? Do you feel like anything you try is bound to fail, so there’s no point in trying anyway? Friend, there’s HOPE! Hope to feel strong and confident in your body, to create consistency in your habits, to lose the weight, and to have clarity on how to partner with God to experience a healthy lifestyle that lasts! Hey, I’m Robin Rhine McDonald, a follower of Jesus, a wife, a mama of 2, and a seminarian turned health coach. And I am SO excited that you are here!! I found myself 20lbs heavier, struggling to keep my eyes open in the afternoons, with a face full of acne. I was confused as to how I ended up there, being that I worked out and felt like I ate fairly healthy. It seemed like no matter what I tried, I couldn’t create the results I wanted in a way that I could see myself maintaining long term. It wasn’t until I discovered the unlimited motivation and FREEDOM that exists in living according to God’s VISION for my life and health that I began to see changes. That is when I realized the most important thing to ever impact my life and health - If I wanted change, I had to partner with God! With God, I crafted a healthy lifestyle that led to ENERGY, healthy weight loss, and confidence in my body WITHOUT feeling overwhelmed or giving in to old patterns. 10 years and two kids later, by the GRACE OF GOD, I’m still prioritizing my health and feeling amazing. I’ve become gripped with the vision of seeing EVERY body that comprises the BODY of Christ healthy and well. In this podcast, I (and the guests I bring on) will show you how to: *Achieve the results you want and KEEP them *Implement simple healthy habits that you ENJOY that fit your busy schedule *Ditch the negative beliefs and lies that keep you from creating results that LAST *Take hold of Biblical health through truth and encouragement for healthy living *Learn what it means to have Kingdom health as a Christian woman *See the possibilities and opportunity of a healthy life in partnership with God *Make changes NOW that will set you up for energy and vitality later in life *Simplify cooking and preparing healthy meals and snacks for you and your family - that everyone LOVES *Learn which foods and meals increase energy and support healthy weight loss *Create endless motivation and drive for your health by aligning with God’s VISION for your life *Partner with God every step of the way! I mix my seminary education with my studies in integrative nutrition to help Jesus loving women, like YOU, develop the energy and vitality to live out their unique God-given calling! Go grab a giant water bottle and start sipping. It’s time to learn how to create the healthy lifestyle you’ve always wanted - with Jesus as the VISION that drives you. Hit play and listen on!

    162. The Impact of Trauma on Our Health and the Path to Transformation With Carla Arges
    Oct 6 2025

    Hey Friend,

    Have you ever wondered if recent challenges you've faced or things that happened in the past would be categorized as trauma? Are you unsure of how to identify trauma or how it impacts you? Maybe you're pretty sure trauma is an accurate description of what you've experienced, but you're also unsure and unsettled about how to move past it. Today's guest has a powerful testimony and a God breathed approach to moving from trauma to transformation in Jesus and I think you'll learn a ton about this subject and the incredible hope we have in Jesus. I trust you'll be encouraged! <3 Robin *** From Carla Arges: Hey, I'm Carla Arges. Daughter of the King. Wife. Mom. Mental Health Warrior. Trauma Survivor. And Avid Coffee Drinker. I spent years broken by trauma and mental illness, barely surviving the day to day struggles of my own inner dialogue. I believed the lies of the past, the hurtful things spoken over me and my own self defeating thoughts. But then something happened. I reclaimed my identity in Christ, figured out how to renew my mind and built the mental grit needed to leave my past self behind and walk in the beautiful purpose God has over my life. If you are ready to say YES to replacing your negative inner dialogue, walking a life of God’s truth and reclaiming who you are - I’m the coach and mentor for you. Get ready to live out Romans 12:2 - be transformed by the renewing of your mind and live in God’s good, pleasing and perfect will.

    161. Battling Stress and Burn Out? The BEST Strategy for Health, Joy, and Impact With Debbie Simmons
    Sep 29 2025

    Hey Friend,

    This episode is for my comadres. The ladies who are like me. We take it all on, we try to make it happen. We say yes and despite the cost, it gets done. We are on the go most of the time. We have those moments of impatience or extra stress, but by and large we are almost always juggling numerous responsibilities at once and we get stuff done. And if you're like me, you might be in a place where you know you do a lot, you know you're busy. You know it PROBABLY would be good to slow down, but you haven't. Because you have to do what you have to do. So if you're wanting to learn how to reduce stress, avoid burn out, and STILL live out the calling and purpose God's placed on your life. You'll want to tune in. Today's guest shares her story of immense loss and tragedy followed by her propensity to take on too much at the expense of her health. The insights God has revealed to her are SOOoo helpful for all of us, providing VERY practical and specific ways we can partner with God to minimize stress and maximize our rest and trust in God. I will give a trigger warning. There is infant loss in the story shared today. It is not shared without hope and the testimony of how God moved amidst this woman's life. Please proceed as you feel able to. I pray this episode blesses you!
