    She Tried to Heal Her Body... Then Food Became the Enemy | Ep. 495

After years of recipe testing, photographing every dish, and pouring her heart into this project, Autumn shares the story behind the book and why it became so much more than a cookbook.

You'll also hear about the inspiration behind the recipes in Heal, from comforting family favorites to beautiful gluten-free sourdough, wholesome desserts, and nourishing meals that celebrate real food.

    What Eating Healthy on a Tight Budget Really Looks Like

    This week we sit down with Eliza, a young Trim Healthy Mama coach who has learned how to make healthy eating simple, doable, and realistic for everyday life. After gaining weight during Bible school and then stepping into married life, Eliza found herself trying to eat healthy while also working, cooking on a budget, and figuring out what actually worked long term. Over time, she learned that the answer was not complicated recipes or extreme dieting. It was simple meals, enough protein, easy staples, and a grace filled approach she could come back to again and again. She shares how meals like eggs, oatmeal, kefir smoothies, big salads, chili, cowboy grub, and protein packed pizza nights helped her and her husband feel better, stay consistent, and enjoy healthy food without making it stressful. If you have ever felt like eating healthy is too expensive, too complicated, or too hard to stick with, Eliza’s story will remind you that small, simple habits can become a lifestyle that truly works. Eliza’s Bio: Eliza Noel is a Certified Trim Healthy Mama Lifestyle Coach, Christian wife, contemporary author, and health blogger. Through Pure Healthy Living & Literature, she offers health coaching for women and helps them make healthy eating simple, delicious, budget friendly, and sustainable.
