    In this episode of the Joyful Health Show Kasey and registered dietitian Tracy Brown discuss the question so many of us ask, “can I be free from disordered eating and still be fighting it?” If you’re in the midst of, or even at the end of your pursuit of a healthy relationship with food and body and you find yourself being tempted back into the pressures of weight loss, body ideals and perfect health practices, you may feel discouraged. In those moments of temptation we often wonder whether we can ever be free from the grips of disordered eating, whether we really will be able to stand strong amidst all of society’s pressure to focus on thinness and perfect eating. Tracy Brown is a  trauma informed nutrition therapist/eating disorder dietitian, stress recovery coach and nutrition counseling skills teacher, and she brings so much hope to us on this topic!  In This Episode We Discuss: The nuances of freedom with food and body The realities of ongoing trial and spiritual battles during the sanctification process Practical steps we can take to keep moving forward in our freedom We pray this episode encourages you to keep fighting the good fight of faith in your journey with food and body, and in all areas of your life!

    Episode 89: Does God Care about What I Eat? with Kristin Williams, RD

    In this episode of the Joyful Health Show Kasey interviews Kristin Williams, RD and eating disorder specialist in Dallas, Texas. Kristin shares how she helps her clients pursue health as a way to honor God instead of making wellness an idol in her life.  In This Episode We Discuss: The deeper question to consider for our food choices If God doesn't have rules for food, can we eat whatever we want? What is God's will for us around food?  Kristin encourages us to prayerfully meditate on 2 Kings 6:16-17 and allow God to open our eyes to see the spiritual warfare that battles for our hearts and God's sure victory: "'Do not be afraid,' Elisha answered, 'for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.' Then Elisha prayed, 'O LORD, please open his eyes that he may see.'" If you are wondering what God wants for your relationship with food, may this verse lead you forward in the Lord.   ☀️Start your week with Mindful Moments for Present People: A free 1-minute devotional to debunk diet culture and savor God's abundance delivered to your inbox every Monday.🙋‍♀️ Get Christian intuitive eating coaching and education with our monthly membership.
