Romans 12:2 tell us…

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 

Before I jump into today’s episode, I'm blessed to share this 5 Star Review: 

The Strong. Confident. His. Podcast has helped so much through this pandemic. I’ve wanted to give up on my fitness goals because the world seems so unstable right now and scary. Listening to the podcasts and doing the mini-course has helped teach me that I’m worth taking care of and I just need to do one day at a time with Christ. I’m feeling healthier than...

How to Get Free from Perfectionism & Performance with Demetria Stallings

(Press play to listen, or enjoy reading the highlights below.)

Have you ever dreamed of doing something, but thought, I can’t do that – what will people say?

Or felt pressured to be perfect, but it’s so hard to measure up to the expectations of others?

Do you think you have to perfectly follow a plan to find results, but when you don't, you beat yourself up?

The pressure to be perfect can be absolutely paralyzing.

Confession! I’m speaking from experience. 

Here's a real-life example, I was nervous about this episode because it was a LIVE Stream on Facebook and Youtube. 

But I know the Word – Galatians 5:1 says, “For freedom, Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.”

I had to make the choice to be free in Christ, free to accept that if I show up in Him, He’ll do the rest.

And you can too, friend!

The Big 3: Don’t Let These Make You Quit! 

(Press play to tune in to this episode, or read the highlights below.)

Have you been feeling overwhelmed, a bit down on yourself, or tempted to quit? 

Friend, I know I have and the sisters-in-Christ on my coaching call today have too – because it’s normal!

Even though we know better and do our best to follow God’s Word, we can get caught up in a bad moment and want to quit.  

There isn’t a single Jesus-loving fit person who hasn’t thought about quitting or got caught in the joy-stealing comparison trap.

In this episode, you will hear from women just like you, who:

• Struggle with controlling their emotions and finding peace in the pandemic
• Feel paralyzed by the ugly lie of perfectionism 
• Compare themselves to others and get tempted to give up  

The Word of God says, God is within her, she will not fall. – Psalm 46:5

 Take Your Power Back Now!

(Press play to listen above, or enjoy reading the highlights below.)

Have you ever noticed there’s this “something” that happens and when it does it instantly makes you turn inward, feel small, and takes away your power?

I call them confidence, happiness, and identity thieves.

As a Christian fitness and life coach, these top the list:

• Scrolling through your social media feed and comparing
• Stepping on the scale, trying on clothes, and picking on your body
• Seeing a picture of yourself that you are trying to look like again or one you don’t recognize yourself in

Today, we flip the script and put an end to less than because we were made for more, here’s how:

1. Bring it out into the light. Everything seems so big when we were struggling with it alone. 
2. Look for it, and when it happens, acknowledge it, give it to God.
3. Place your identity in Christ and know who you are in Him.

Galatians 5:1 tells us:

For freedom Christ...

When God Did the Impossible in My Life

(Press play to listen to this new episode of Strong. Confident. His. Podcast above or enjoy reading below.)

I have a confession, sharing personal stories isn't always easy for me, because it's never easy to admit all the doubt, fear, and discouragement I've experienced pursuing my goals.

You know those moments when you think, "Oh I could never do that, or why is it so hard, and why does success seem so easy for other people?"

If you're really struggling today, I'm sharing personal stories to show you that no matter what it looks like, God's not done with you.

Sometimes we need to intentionally look back on all He has brought us through to remember how good He is. 

I call them HIMPOSSIBLE moments! 

This scripture speaks to this perfectly: 

Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us. (Ephesians 3:20)

Level Up Your Life With the Lord

(Press play to listen to this episode of the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast or enjoy reading below.)

Are there places in your life where you could really use the Lord's help?

Doing this exercise will show you exactly where God wants to do the work with you that will level up your life: 

Step 1.Think of your life as your home and each part of you is a room.

Let’s walk through your house together, and as we do, ask yourself if God has been pointing anything out in this room:

Kitchen: Has he been talking to you about making better food choices, or are you struggling with disordered eating, overeating, undereating, or maybe even numbing yourself with food? 

Office: Are you hearing anything about a business He’s put on your heart, your current job, trusting Him for a new job, or perhaps how you spend your money?

Bathroom: When you look in the mirror, do you see what He sees, or do you struggle with getting dressed or your body...

Jesus, Our Light in the Darkness

(Press play to listen to the full devotional episode from the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast or read the highlights below.)

Do you have limiting beliefs about God? Were you taught it is ungodly to want to be successful, take care of your health, or even want to be the best version of yourself?

Did you know limiting beliefs don’t come from Him?

As women of God, we have been saved, set apart, and chosen. We are called to shine for Him and bring Him glory. 

Let me share a story about one of my students, Heather.

Growing up, Heather was taught that wanting to be successful was ungodly and prideful, so she put her head down and settled for less in her career, friendships, and even her appearance. 

Have you ever done that too? 

Working with Heather, I taught her the truth of who God says she is in order to undo this stronghold. (Learn more about who God says you are, here.)

Heather has two kids, so I shared with her that...
