The Year I Got Hooked on Calories

In 2014, I started tracking everything I ate.

I had just started CrossFit and stumbled into the world of fitness influencers and the hashtag #iifym—If It Fits Your Macros. The concept sounded empowering: if the numbers lined up, you could eat whatever you wante...

Is This Even Enough?

You know that inner question—the one that whispers after a short workout, a skipped gym day, or a simple meal plan:

If you’ve ever started a new workout routine, meal plan, or Bible study with high hopes—only to burn out two weeks later—you’re not alone.

“Sexy” doesn’t usually show up in your Bible study notes.
But for the Christian woman trying to stay healthy while raising kids, managing her home, and chasing after peace—it’s time to reframe what “sexy” actually means.

The world says sexy is a certain body. A number on a scale. A fitness plan ...

Lunch often shows up like the forgotten middle child of meals. It doesn’t get the planning that dinner does, and it doesn’t have the urgency of breakfast. Before you know it, you’re standing in the kitchen, hungry, staring at random ingredients and wondering what to eat.

You don’t want to just look strong—you want to feel strong for the actual demands of your life.

From lifting toddlers and groceries to bouncing back after illness or aging with energy, functional strength matters. But with so many workouts online, it’s easy to get lost in the noise.

Have you ever looked at your fitness or nutrition habits and thought, “I used to be so good at this... what happened?” Whether it's been a few weeks or a few years, starting over can feel heavy—especially when shame tries to set the pace.

But here's the truth: you're not starting from scratch. You'...

You've been saying it for weeks—or maybe years: I know I need to start strength training. But every time you try to make a plan, life gets in the way or your thoughts spiral with overwhelm.

What exercises should I do? How many reps? Do I need a gym? Will this even work?

Let’s be real—you want to get stronger. Not just to lift heavier weights or see a number shift on the scale, but to show up for your life with more energy, more clarity, and more confidence in who God made you to be.
