17 Restoring Food Freedom and Breaking Food Bondage and Shame To Lose Weight

She’s Called to Wellness Christian Weight Loss, Wellness & Mindset for Women in Ministry

Shame around food is one of the enemy’s most strategic tools against women of God. Why? Because it attacks your body, your identity, and your kingdom authority all at once. In this episode, we uncover how food shame forms, how diet culture disguises itself as “discipline,” and how Jesus leads us into true food freedom not through perfection, but through deliverance and peace. Food freedom isn’t about eating perfectly. It’s about living unbound. “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” John 8:36 Reflection Question: When was the first time you...

Women in ministry are uniquely vulnerable to cortisol belly fat because of chronic stress, emotional labor, trauma exposure, disrupted sleep, and the constant pressure to pour out without rest.

Why Women in Ministry Are More Prone to Weight Gain In this episode, we talk about why weight gain especially belly fat is so common for women in ministry, and why it’s not a failure of discipline or faith, but a stress response of the body. We explore how chronic ministry stress keeps cortisol elevated and dysregulates the HPA axis, leading to increased fat storage, insulin resistance, slower metabolism, muscle loss, and persistent cravings. We also address the moral pressure around self-care in ministry and how beliefs like “rest is selfish” or “my body shouldn’t matter”...

14 - Delaying Instant Gratification for Long-Term Weight Loss Success

She’s Called to Wellness Christian Weight Loss, Wellness & Mindset for Women in Ministry

In this episode, we dive into one of the most challenging aspects of weight loss: resisting immediate cravings in favor of your long-term goals. Losing weight requires saying no to instant gratification, but why is this so difficult? Why It's So Hard Many of the foods we're tempted by contain processed sugars and refined carbs that are deliberately designed to keep us coming back for more. These ingredients create addictive patterns in our brains, making it harder to stop snacking and easier to give in to cravings. Understanding this helps us recognize we're not just fighting willpower...
