Principles vs Methods

Principles vs. Methods One really big lesson I’ve learned on my Peace with Food journey is the difference between principles and methods. So, what’s the difference? This question takes me back to growing up on a farm… So, we had an old pickup the farm hands called Ole Green. The cab was two shades ofContinue reading “Principles vs Methods”

When Life Shatters, Perspective Matters

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about friends, family, and others who have experienced life-shattering moments. The kind that changes everything in an instant (or even over time). A diagnosis or accident. A loved one taken too soon. A betrayal. A loss. A dream gone. A relationship severed. Moments like these shake us to ourContinue reading “When Life Shatters, Perspective Matters”

You Can Be Free

We all have defining moments. Sometimes it’s a single event; other times it’s a turning point that sets us on a new path. For me, one of those moments came my freshman year of college at Oral Roberts University. I was sitting in chapel when the speaker said a simple phrase that changed everything: “YouContinue reading “You Can Be Free”

Peace with Food: 10 Years Later

Ten years ago, Lara and I published Peace with Food. That season was incredibly special. So many of you—especially those in this community—cheered us on, shared what we were doing, and supported the message in ways I’ll always be grateful for. 🎉 When we first released the book, the response was overwhelming. One of theContinue reading “Peace with Food: 10 Years Later”

How A DEXA Scan Initiated My 180° Health Reset

Hey Ladies (and Gents—you’re welcome, too!), I wish I’d known this in my 30s. But since I can’t go back, I will pay it forward. DISCLAIMER: I’m sharing my experience, not medical advice. Do your own research and partner with a clinician experienced in bone health—especially women’s bone care. While I’m grateful for the roleContinue reading “How A DEXA Scan Initiated My 180° Health Reset”

The Power of Hope in Midlife ✨

Hey friends—I just wanted to give a quick disclaimer. This is a long post, and it’s especially written for women over 50 who might be feeling the weight of midlife, menopause, and all that comes with it. If that’s not you, chances are you’ll probably want to scroll on by. But if it is… that’sContinue reading “The Power of Hope in Midlife ✨”

Greater Truth vs. Lesser Truth

There’s a powerful distinction in the Christian life that changes everything once you see it: ⬆️The Greater Truth — The ultimate truth. Who God is and what God says. ⬇️ The Lesser Truth — Our own personal truth. Our situation, thoughts, and feelings. Our current circumstances. While both are realities, The Greater Truth supersedes andContinue reading “Greater Truth vs. Lesser Truth”

💗What Your Words Reveal About Your Heart

“Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt Ouch. That quote can be very convicting. Every so often it’s a good practice to examine and evaluate ourselves. 2 Corinthians 13:5 (NIV) says, “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize thatContinue reading “💗What Your Words Reveal About Your Heart”

🤠Get Your Posse

GET YOUR POSSE!! You were not created to do life alone. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! You were made to live in community. And not just any community, but one where you belong, are loved, accepted, but also challenged. One that will nudge you continually to live more in alignment with yourContinue reading “🤠Get Your Posse”
