    Sashelle Synch Up—Reflections on the Year and News for the Next

    One hundred and fifty one episodes!!!  When we launched this podcast in early 2022, our commitment was to add value to your life by sharing ideas and experiences of our own, as well as exposing you to many incredible voices with insights to impart. I really had no idea how it would unfold, and now, nearly four years and 113 guests later, I am proud to say mission accomplished. Scrolling though the episodes, reliving moments of each conversation, reinforces for me how important it is for people to tell their stories. I hope you have found information and inspiration to help you on your journey to be a better being.   As this year comes to a close, it is also time to bring the Be a Better Being Podcast to a close. Please join for our final episode and if you are inclined, start back at the beginning to see if you hear things you didn’t the first time around.

    Faith, Fitness, and Finding Purpose with Joy Watts

    Self care and improvement is the theme of the month and today’s guest is a poster child for an improved life through self-care! Facing significant obstacles from a young age, Joy Watts was living a less-than-optimal life. Difficult circumstances led to addiction, leading to poor choices, until one day divine intervention completely changed her trajectory. Commitment to faith led to sobriety, but marriage, four children, and life in general had her regularly chasing weight loss. Once introduced to strength training, another life shift was set in motion. Joy discovered that shrinking your body doesn’t fix how you feel about it. This, too, changed, when she began anchoring her fitness in faith.  Joy has dedicated the past 10 years helping women be strong all the days of their lives—inside and out. She is the founder of Aging With Grace Fitness and recently launched a faith-based strength training app, AWG Fitness. It is thoughtfully designed to make it simple for women to follow a program, build real strength, and honor God by being good stewards of their bodies. Joy and Michelle have a raw, vulnerable, honest conversation about the struggles and pressures women face with body image, health and juggling all of life’s demands. If you need to be convinced to “self-care” or are looking for inspiration to improve your wellbeing, this episode delivers!
