Ep 33: The Weight of Binge Eating

What sits beneath our relationship with food, exercise, and our bodies is often more complex than it first appears. In this episode of The Weight of It, I explore the emotional and lived experiences that shape body image, identity, and eating behaviours - including the things we often struggle to put words to. If you’ve ever felt caught between wellness culture, body image, performance, shame, or identity, this episode may resonate with you. Content note: This episode includes discussions of eating behaviours and body image that some listeners may find sensitive or triggering. Please take care while listening. ——————————— If this conversation resonated with you, you can subscribe for future episodes and reflections exploring the intersection of food, exercise, body image, and identity.

Ep: 32 When you’re feeling discouraged, content and hopeful all at once | Navigating your 30’s

As beautiful as ‘becoming’ can sometimes sound, it is usually filled with lots of mess, twists, turns and unanswered questions. In this solo episode, I share how I’m navigating through the messy middle of not being where I want to be, but also being so grateful that I’m not where I used to be.  If you’ve ever felt the weight of becoming, then this one is for you. As always, expect a real and raw conversation about faith, identity, and growth - because the weight we carry isn’t always physical.

Episode 31: God, When Will It Be My Turn? | Navigating Singleness & the Desire for Marriage

SEASON 2 IS HERE. And we’re stepping into deeper, more honest conversations than ever before. Valentine’s Day can feel tender when you’re single. The quiet question, “God, when will it be my turn?”, lingers a little louder. In this episode, my amazing friend Charlene and I speak candidly about navigating adulthood while holding the ache of longing. Watching proposal after proposal, celebrating others wholeheartedly, yet still wondering when our own story will unfold. This is a raw and unfiltered conversation about love, romance, faith, and the desire for marriage - the hope, the tension, and everything in between. If you’ve ever felt the weight of waiting, this one is for you. As always, expect a real and raw conversation about faith, identity, and growth - because the weight we carry isn’t always physical.

Episode 30: The Weight of Modesty in a Hypersexual Fitness Industry

In this episode, we sit down with Jaaz, the founder of Move Modestly - a brand born from her personal and spiritual journey with God. Once confident in a more provocative lifestyle, Jaaz shares how God gently led her into a deeper understanding of modesty - one rooted not in restriction, but in relationship. We explore what it truly means to dress modestly as a believer, why modesty is a heart posture rather than a performative action, and how obedience to God can transform the way we see confidence, femininity, and self-expression. This conversation is a powerful reminder that modesty isn’t about hiding - it’s about reflecting the One we follow. Together, we unpack the cultural pressures around appearance, the tension between confidence and exposure, and the freedom that comes from surrendering even our style to Christ. As always, expect a real and raw conversation about faith, identity, and growth - because the weight we carry isn’t always physical.
