How Fitness Ignores Women (And Why "Eat Less, Move More" Isn't the Full Story)

This episode is a reminder that your worth isn't tied to your discipline—and wisdom matters more than pushing harder. In this episode, we talk about: * Why "eat less, move more" often stops working for women in midlife * How stress, recovery, and nourishment change as your body changes * What it looks like to listen to your body without guilt or self-blame * Why rest and recovery are acts of stewardship, not weakness * How God strengthens women when old fitness methods no longer fit If you've ever felt dismissed in fitness and like you're all alone, this episode is for you. 🎧 Listen to the full episode of Strong. Confident. His. to find clarity, peace, and a faith-filled approach to fitness that honors your body and your walk with God.

Devotional: For the Woman Carrying Too Much ➞ Bring It to Jesus

When life gets loud, unclear, or unfamiliar, the most faithful move isn't figuring out what's next—it's returning to Jesus right where you are. This short Saturday devotional is a pause. A reminder that rest doesn't come from clarity, productivity, or answers—it comes from abiding. In today's episode, we reflect on: * Why coming back to Jesus matters more than figuring everything out * How quiet moments with God can strengthen us more than we expect * What it looks like to abide when life feels heavy or hard * How Jesus invites us to come as we are—not perform or prove anything Scripture reminds us: "In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and trust shall be your strength." — Isaiah 30:15 If you're in a season of change, waiting, or uncertainty, this devotional is an invitation to stop, return, and remain with Jesus—right where you are.

Christian Fitness: 5 Truths About Treating Your Body Like a Temple (Not a Project to Perfect)

Friend, can I speak to you heart to heart about your body and your faith for just a moment? So many Christian women love Jesus, read their Bibles, pray sincerely — and still feel overwhelmed, discouraged, and stuck in their health journey. In this episode, I share five truths God had to teach me about treating your body like a temple — not a project to perfect. For a long time, I used fitness to try to fix what only God was ever meant to heal. So often, we bring our faith into every area of life — except this one. And yet, God cares deeply about how we steward our bodies, not from a place of perfection, but from a place of grace, wisdom, and trust. In this episode, you'll hear: * Why fitness was never meant to fix your worth * Why your body is not a problem to solve, but a handmade, uniquely designed temple to steward * Why what worked before may not work in this season * How to stop fighting your body and start partnering with God * How to ask God for wisdom for the season you're in If you've been stuck in the cycle of: trying harder → feeling worse → starting over… this episode is for you. This is not about more discipline. It's about more grace. More wisdom. And learning to care for your body the way God always intended. Ready to Walk This Out With God? If you're longing for a faith-centered way to walk this out — not alone, not in confusion, but with wisdom and support… 👉🏼 Could you use a step-by-step plan that puts Jesus at the center of your health journey? ➞ https://kimdolanleto.com/fit-gods-way-course [https://kimdolanleto.com/fit-gods-way-course] Help More Women Find This Message If this episode encouraged you, please share it with a sister in Christ who might need this same hope today. And if you have a moment, leaving a five-star review on Apple or Spotify helps more women find healing, hope, and strength in Jesus. With so much love, Kim Dolan Leto Host of Strong. Confident.
