As busy women, we often feel like there’s never enough time to focus on our health. Maybe you think workouts steal precious moments from your family or that healthy eating is a luxury you simply don’t have time for. But here’s the truth: caring for yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential.

In this episode, we explore how shifting your mindset can help you embrace your health journey without guilt, prioritize your well-being for the right reasons, and live abundantly in your purpose.

1. Reframing Self-Care as Essential Soul Care

   • Self-care isn’t just bubble baths and massages; it’s about aligning your heart and body with God’s purpose.
   • Learn how prioritizing your health helps you show up stronger for the people and responsibilities you care about most.

2. Why Prioritizing Your Health is a Gift, Not Selfish

   • Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Taking care of it honors God and equips you for the work He has called you to.
   • Hear how small, intentional health habits can create more energy and joy in your life.

3. How to Shift from a Scarcity to an Abundance Mindset

   • Stop seeing health as something that “takes away” from your family or work. Instead, see it as something that gives you more—more energy, focus, and joy.
   • Practical tips to embrace health as a gift, even in a busy season of life.

• Why Guilt Isn’t From God: Feeling guilty for working out or prepping a healthy meal is not from the Lord. Instead of shame, embrace gratitude for the body He’s given you.
• Small Steps Lead to Big Changes: Taking care of your body doesn’t require hours at the gym or massive lifestyle overhauls. It starts with small, intentional habits like drinking more water or taking a 5-minute walk.
• Your Health is a Form of Worship: Fitness isn’t just about looking good; it’s about honoring God with your body so you can fulfill the purpose He’s given you.

You’re not alone in feeling overwhelmed or like there’s no time to prioritize yourself. But the truth is, when you care for your health, you’re not taking away from your family—you’re investing in them by showing up as the best version of yourself.

You deserve to feel strong, energized, and present. And with God’s help, small, consistent choices can make a lasting impact on your health and your life.
