191: The Right Way To Hydrate with Carly Stagg, FNP

Bet you didn’t know there’s a wrong way to hydrate but there is. I’m a little cringey when I hear people say they drink a gallon of water a day (made popular recently by the 75 Hard Challenge). There is a thing as TOO much water and, for most people, a gallon is too much. It can flush out the minerals you need for your body to be able to actually get water into the cell so you can be hydrated (not to mention you’ll be peeing your brains out!). The goal is hydration - not a certain amount of water. 

In this week’s podcast episode, Carly and I are talking about:

  • The minerals you need for proper hydration

  • Our favorite electrolytes and other “nutritious fluids”

  • The best filtering options for water

Come listen and refine your water goals to ensure you’re actually getting hydrated!

190: Growing Your Capacity

While you’re growing your muscle capacity and protein capacity this New Year, let’s work on growing your capacity to believe that you are capable and worthy of the things God is calling you to. I’ve struggled with Imposter Syndrome for over 10 years and nobody talks about it enough. It’s that voice inside your head that says - Who Do You Think You Are? 

It usually comes with big dreams and goals and is one of the biggest barriers to stepping into your God-given purpose and gifts.

In this week’s podcast episode we’re talking about the beauty (and pain) of growing your capacity and overcoming limiting beliefs. The new year is the perfect time to believe that He can do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us. 🙏❤️

189: The Ultimate Body Recomposition Goal

In this week’s episode we’re talking about changing the way the body looks - both the individual body and the Body of Christ. The quickest way to reshape your body is with more protein and more muscle. The quickest way to reshape the Body of Christ is for each of its individual members to be in good health. When individual bodies feel well, the entire Body of Christ shows up more vibrantly.


Come listen to how we strengthen ourselves in spirit, mind and body so that we live into all God has planned for us to do. When we feel well, we serve well and, collectively, that makes us a greater force in the world.

188: Lean Mass vs Fat Mass

Lean Mass is the sum weight of your skeletal muscle, organs, skin, bones and body water. Fat Mass is the amount of fat in your body. As we age (which, sadly, starts in our 30’s) we begin to lose muscle mass. The less muscle we have, the worse our metabolism works. Muscle is one of our greatest metabolic assets because it serves as a storage tank for carbs. The less muscle we have to store glucose, the more quickly it turns to fat. Thus, we start conceding more lean mass over to fat mass which is a major metabolic nightmare!

I recently had a body composition scan to assess my lean mass versus fat mass (scale weight doesn’t give you any insight into this important ratio). In this week’s episode, I’m telling you all about it in case it’s something you might want to do too.

186: Beauty, Brain & Bones with Leslie Bumpas, FNTP

So many women believe their beauty, brains and bones are destined to take a nosedive as they age. They’re convinced they’re genetically doomed to repeat family patterns of weight gain, hair loss, osteoporosis and other chronic diseases.
Leslie is on the podcast this week to tell us it’s NOT TRUE! We have so much power over the aging process. Being frumpy and dumpy does not have to be our fate.

Come listen as we talk about everything from fun beauty tools to functional blood tests and how modern advice to reduce cholesterol, take calcium and avoid hormones often works against us. It’s always a juicy convo when Leslie is on the pod!

185: Sacred Rest with Carly Stagg, FNP

God establishes the value of rest right from the beginning. (Genesis 2:3) But rest is SO much more than just sleep. Rest is stopping people pleasing. Rest is stretching your muscles. Rest is allowing time for God to pop creative ideas into your head. Rest is soaking in nature and beautiful art. Rest is unplugging from sensory overload. Rest is plugging IN to God’s Word.

In this week’s episode, Carly and I discuss God’s call for us to rest and the different ways we can do that. We also talk about how our health takes a hormonal nosedive when we constantly put work before rest.
Come take a deep breath, listen and be reminded why you’ve got to slow down sister. Your Almighty Creator calls you to rest and to know that your work is not the most important thing - He is.

184: Toxins and Terrain

Have you ever wondered why some people “catch” the flu and some don’t? Or why one person experiences a bacterial or viral infection worse than another person? Or why some people do all the preventative things - mask up, use hand sanitizer, take vitamin C, get a vaccine - and they STILL get it and other people who don’t do any of those things and don’t?

In this week’s episode we’re talking about the way toxins impact our inner body environment (terrain) and make us more susceptible to infection and nefarious side effects. Listen in to learn why we need to focus more on terrain than germs, which toxins increase your illness and how a good detox protocol can really help.
