Bonus: Why Diets Don’t Work (and Why Christian Women Keep Gaining It Back) + 3 Faith-Based Ways to Find Freedom and See Real Results w/ Lacy Lain & Brittany Braswell

If you’ve ever typed into Google or ChatGPT, “Why am I not losing weight?” or “Why do diets stop working?” this conversation is for you.

Shaela Daugherty, joined by Lacy Lain and Brittany Braswell, unpacks the truth behind diet culture and the spiritual exhaustion it creates. Together they reveal why most Christian women keep gaining the weight back—and how faith-based fitness habits can help you finally see real, sustainable results.

Forget fad diets, rigid plans, and “clean-eating” perfection. In this episode, you’ll hear how to break free from the guilt-driven cycle and build healthy habits that last through grace, stewardship, and consistency.

What You’ll Learn

  • Why most diets fail for Christian women (and what to do instead)

  • How to replace restriction with rhythms of nourishment and peace

  • 3 faith-based habits that build lasting results without obsession

  • How your identity in Christ can heal your relationship with food & fitness

  • Why consistency and community outperform quick fixes every time

 

 Why It Matters

So many women of faith are stuck in the “next-best-plan” cycle—keto, Whole30, macro tracking, reset after reset—only to end up tired, anxious, and spiritually empty.

This episode reframes health as a calling, not a competition. You’ll learn how to stop chasing quick fixes and start cultivating discipline through dependence on God, building strength that lasts far beyond the mirror.

True transformation happens when you trade control for consistency, hustle for holiness, and perfection for peace.
