Today I’m thrilled to have a very special guest, Lacy Lain. We’ve known each other since 2018 when our families were on staff at the same church, and we quickly bonded over our mutual love for business and wellness. Lacy is not only a follower of Jesus, a wife, and a mom of three, but she’s also a functional medicine health and nutrition coach who has battled her own autoimmune health issues.

In this episode, we cover:

• Lacy’s Health Journey:
  Lacy shares her story of overcoming health challenges, from childhood kidney surgeries to her husband Caleb’s battle with leukemia. She talks about how these experiences propelled her into the world of health and nutrition and led her to explore and eventually embrace functional medicine.

• Creating a Culture of Health at Home:
  Lacy discusses the importance of educating her children about nutrition and how she and her husband incorporate healthy habits into their daily lives. From cooking with the kids to making health a fun and engaging topic at home, Lacy emphasizes the significance of involving the whole family in the journey to wellness.

• The Role of Faith in Wellness:
  Lacy explains how her faith drives her commitment to health. She believes that we are called to steward our bodies well so that we can fulfill God’s purpose in our lives. This belief not only shapes how she approaches her own health but also how she coaches others to do the same.

• Functional Medicine and Individualized Care:
  Lacy gives us an insight into her work as a functional medicine coach, focusing on how she tailors her approach to each individual’s unique needs. She highlights the importance of finding the root cause of health issues rather than just addressing symptoms and how this approach can lead to optimal wellness.

• The Power of Education and Empowerment:
  Lacy shares her passion for helping women achieve those “light bulb moments” where they truly understand their health and begin to take ownership of their wellness journey. She talks about the joy of seeing her clients not just follow instructions but develop the confidence to make informed decisions about their health.

Key Takeaways:

• Health is not just about preventing disease; it’s about achieving optimal wellness.
• Nutrition plays a crucial role in our overall health, and it’s important to educate ourselves and our families about the choices we make.
• Our faith can guide us in how we care for our bodies, seeing it as a form of stewardship and obedience to God.
