Trusted voice with Naomi Van Wyk
I've spent years pushing through fatigue, brain fog, and hormone imbalances thinking it was just my normal — and for a long time, I didn't even realize how much it was costing me. Not just physically, but spiritually. You cannot fully live out a God-given calling when your body is running on empty. That's why I brought on Dr. Kimber Krosschell, naturopathic physician and certified functional hormone specialist, to have a conversation I wish I'd had decades ago. If you've ever felt like something is off in your body but every test comes back "normal," this episode was made for you. What stopped me in my tracks was when Dr. Kimber explained what busyness is actually doing to us on a physiological level. It's not just a productivity problem — it's a hormone problem, a cortisol problem, and honestly, a spiritual warfare problem. The enemy doesn't need to get you to sin big. He just needs to keep you urgent, overwhelmed, and too depleted to sit at God's feet. The urgent is literally giving us a dopamine hit that makes the important — God, family, calling — feel less rewarding by comparison. That's not a motivation issue. That's a biological trap. Dr. Kimber also brought something I wasn't expecting: the connection between identity, the words we speak over ourselves, and our physical healing. How you see yourself matters to your body. Calling yourself sick, broken, or exhausted isn't just an emotional habit — it's a declaration your cells are listening to. We talk about bioidentical hormones, the Proverbs 31 woman as the picture of hormonal balance, why rest is a gift not a command, and what's coming in Dr. Kimber's book Holy Hormones: From Hot Mess to Hormone Blessed. Part two is coming — and trust me, you don't want to miss it. 00:00 – Your Body Is Affecting Your Destiny: Meet Dr. Kimber 03:12 – God's Medicine: What Naturopathic Medicine Really Is 06:24 – Men Have Hormone Issues Too: Testosterone, Bioidentical vs. Synthetic 09:36 – Busyness Is a Tool of the Enemy (And It's Giving You a Dopamine Hit) 12:48 – God Rested First: The Biblical Case for Rest 16:01 – What Chronic Stress Is Literally Doing to Your Body 19:13 – Breaking the Cycle: Where Healing Actually Starts 22:25 – Stop Saying You're Sick: Identity, Words, and Declaring Healing 25:37 – Practicing Faith-Based Medicine With Believers and Non-Believers 28:49 – Holy Hormones: The Proverbs 31 Woman and What's Coming in the Book
