Thick Girl Theology Episode 15: The Last Supper

Thick Girl Theology Episode 23: Movement As Partnership

Movement was never meant to be punishment. In this episode of Thick Girl Theology, we're exploring the ninth principle of intuitive eating: Movement—Feel the Difference. Together, we'll rethink exercise through a biblical lens, learning how to interrupt sitting, pursue movement that brings joy, listen to the wisdom of our bodies, and challenge ourselves with honor instead of shame. Drawing from 1 Timothy 4:8, we'll discover that physical training has value, but our worth was never determined by our workouts. Your body isn't your enemy—it's your partner in carrying out the calling God has placed on your life. #ThickGirlTheology #BetterThanBeautiful #BodyFreedom #FaithAndFemininity #GodsWork

Thick Girl Theology Episode 22: Respect God's Work

Have you spent years fighting your body, trying to shrink it, fix it, or force it to become something different? In this episode of Thick Girl Theology, Mia explores Principle 8 of Intuitive Eating—Respect Your Body—through the lens of faith. You'll learn how your body's design, genetics, and protective mechanisms point to a Creator who made you with purpose. Together we'll discuss body respect, gratitude, comparison, body bashing, and why accepting God's work is not the same as giving up on your health. This conversation is bigger than weight. It's about dignity, stewardship, and learning to see your body as God's work rather than your enemy. #ThickGirlTheology #BetterThanBeautiful #BodyFreedom #FaithAndFemininity #GodsWork

Thick Girl Theology Episode 21: food and feelings

Episode 21: Food and Feelings  What if overeating isn’t really about food? In this episode of Thick Girl Theology, Mia explores the deeper needs that often drive us to eat when we’re not physically hungry. Food has always been connected to comfort, safety, celebration, and connection, but sometimes we ask it to do a job it was never meant to do. Whether we’re seeking relief from stress, loneliness, boredom, anxiety, or overwhelm, food can become a quick coping strategy that leaves the real need untouched. Together, we’ll examine the difference between feeding your body and soothing your soul, and learn how to invite God into those small, everyday moments when you’re tempted to numb, distract, or comfort yourself with food. Before you eat the cookie, send the text, pour the drink, or reach for another helping, what if you spent just five minutes sitting with your feelings and talking to God? This episode is a gentle invitation to replace coping with food with coping with kindness, curiosity, and God’s presence. Scripture: John 6:35 “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” #ThickGirlTheology #BetterThanBeautiful #BodyFreedom #FaithAndFemininity #GodsWork

Thick Girl Theology Episode 15: The Last Supper

Episode 15: The Last Supper In this episode of Thick Girl Theology, we sit at the table with Jesus and ask a hard question: What does it mean to be fed by God in a world that profits off our hunger? “The Last Supper” is a conversation about communion, consumption, shame, desire, and the deep spiritual ache so many women carry in their bodies. We talk about the difference between being physically full and spiritually nourished. About how dieting culture teaches restriction while Jesus keeps inviting people to eat.  This episode explores: ● Food as more than fuel ● Why so many women are starving for peace, affection, and identity ● The connection between body shame and spiritual disconnection ● What it means to stop worshipping thinness and start receiving nourishment as holy If you’ve ever felt at war with your body, ashamed of your appetite, or afraid to take up space, this episode is for you. Because maybe the goal was never punishment. Maybe the table was always open. #ThickGirlTheology #BetterThanBeautiful #BodyFreedom #FaithAndFemininity #GodsWork

Thick Girl Theology 20: The secret to Confidence

Everybody wants confidence… but most people are trying to learn their way into it instead of live their way into it. In this episode of Thick Girl Theology, I’m unpacking how confidence is actually built—not through more information, but through action. From teaching long division to teaching my son how to drive, this is about what happens when you stop waiting to feel ready and start doing the thing. #ThickGirlTheology #BetterThanBeautiful #BodyFreedom #FaithAndFemininity #GodsWork
