Have you ever wondered what the biggest calorie-burning workouts are? 

This is a great episode you don’t want to miss. 

Before I dive in, I have to share this 5 Star Review:

Hi Kim, I just discovered you last night on YouTube and have been listening to your podcast all afternoon. I ordered your book and I’m so excited! Listening to you and the scriptures you quoted has renewed my hope that I can lose weight and feel better. I had almost given up. Each of your podcasts is just so on point that I KNOW God led me to you. I can't express my gratitude and I know I can do all things through Christ. Somehow I forgot that along the way.  – Jessica!

WOW, just wow! All glory to God! Seriously, Thank you Lord for showing Jessica she can do all things through you! My eyes feel with tears when I...

10 Ways to Stop Hormonal Weight Gain

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

Okay, today is real talk for women. We’re talking hormones and weight gain, and what we can do to beat it!

This has been a very tough struggle for me, so I want to share everything I’ve learned to overcome it.

I believe God wants to be involved in every detail of our lives, so here’s His word to stand strong and confident on:

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. – Psalm 32:8 

Let’s just all agree that weight loss is not simply one calorie in one calorie out.

Calories do matter, the food that’s making up your calories matters a lot, but hormones matter more!

Our hormones are driving the weight loss process! Especially as you get into perimenopause and menopause. 

Our world just thinks of weight loss as diet and workout,...

5 W’s to Simplify Your Faith and Fitness 

When I was first searching for answers on how to get healthy, I began researching our manual for life, the Bible. 

I noticed that Jesus got up early. He got alone and prayed. He walked everywhere. He put time with His father first.

Following His example, I personally found lasting results, and then created an entire program that has helped transform 1000s of women’s lives.

These women don’t just lose weight, they find confidence, pursue goals, and live free of the dieting rollercoaster.

I wanted to share how to do this with you, so I created a simple system called The 5 W’s.

The 5 W’s are a new and easy tool that will help you create a lifestyle of success.

5 W’s: Word, Water, Workout, Whole, God-made foods, Worship

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) 

My Brave Moment

I was driving to Tucson one...

Learn How Patty Lost 40 Pounds in Just 7 Months!

(Press play to listen, or read the highlights of this Strong. Confident. His. Podcast episode below.)

Today’s show is very special to me, and I want to give God all the glory.

I will never forget scrolling through my comments on Instagram and seeing this:

Have you ever gotten confirmation about something God has shown you? THIS was that kind of moment for me! 

40 Pounds is no easy feat and in only seven months!

Patty didn’t use a diet fix either, she used a life fix. 

It’s been eight months since her Faith Inspired Transformation and she hasn't gained the weight back either.

And did I mention, that she's a grandma!

Only God can do the impossible in our lives friends!

Five years ago, God put it on my heart to write a book about everything I learned the hard way from the fitness industry.

After years as a fitness model, writer, and competitor, I saw the grip fitness goals and body image can have on...

Don’t let THIS Destroy Your Fitness Progress

(Press play to listen to this episode of Strong. Confident. His. or enjoying read the highlights below.)

Today’s show is one that will equip you with a truth many of us may not even be aware of, and it's a major "aha" moment! 

Pause for a moment and think about this:

Have you ever made the connection that weekends were a third of the year and could be sabotaging your fitness goals?

In my personal struggle to stay strong and fit: mind, body and soul, God showed me this: 52 weekends a year X 2 days = 104 days

But if you start your weekends on Fridays, that’s 52 x 3 = 156 days

With a three day weekend, we’re getting closer to half of the year.

I thought it was important to do a Strong. Confident. His. episode on this, because God wants His daughter’s wise. 

He wants our eyes open to the traps of the enemy and the things that we don’t even see that are completely derailing us from our best.

• How many times have you come to the end of the day and you're like, ugh...I didn’t get my workout in?
• Or how many times have you excitedly set a fitness goal, but somehow it never made its way from your thoughts on to your to-do list?

Let’s be honest, getting fit can be hard...like exhausting hard.

Many women tell me they have a continuously negative conversation going on with themselves and they beat themselves up because they don’t get their workouts in. 

This struggle to workout is compounded by the very unrealistic and single-focus of what it looks like to be fit.

Fitness should be a lifestyle, not a look. 

This is why many women feel defeated and like, what’s the point because they can’t measure up to their social media feed. 

Oh, my friends, the point is YOU ARE WORTH TAKING CARE OF!
