In this episode, we explore the connection between our physical desires and spiritual growth. You'll learn how to shift from living by impulse to leading with the spirit—especially when it comes to food and cravings. We'll talk about why urges feel so powerful, how to ride the wave without giving in, and how small moments of self-mastery bring us closer to God.

Every intentional choice is a spiritual victory. Let's learn to honor our bodies and align with our divine potential—one decision at a time.

The natural man seeks comfort, pleasure, and ease—but those desires can keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns, especially when it comes to how we treat our bodies. In this episode, we dive into the lies we tell ourselves about weight, worth, and food—and how those lies keep us trapped in a cycle of self-judgment and emotional eating.

Drawing from scripture and personal experience, I'll share how telling the truth—about our choices, our bodies, and our divine worth—is the first step in overcoming the natural man. You'll learn how honesty and self-compassion pave the way for lasting change, and I'll give you a simple, judgment-free way to start shifting your mindset today.

Did you know that how you treat your body affects how you feel the Spirit? In this episode, we dive into 1 Corinthians 6:19 and a powerful insight from Elder Bednar about why our bodies are on loan from God—and how taking care of them is part of our spiritual stewardship.

I'll share a simple analogy about a crystal glass of water that explains how overeating can actually numb our emotions and our ability to feel the Spirit. Plus, I'll tell you about a time when emotional eating kept me from connecting with God—even in the temple.

This week's challenge: Before you grab a snack, pause and ask—am I really hungry, or just avoiding an emotion?

Let's learn to care for our bodies as an act of faith and feel the Spirit more fully.

Ecclesiastes teaches that there is a time for every emotion—joy, sorrow, laughter, and mourning. But how often do we resist or avoid our emotions instead of allowing them?

In this episode, we explore:
✨ How emotions are created by our thoughts
✨ The difference between resisting, reacting, avoiding, and allowing emotions
✨ A simple process to fully feel and process emotions
✨ Why shutting down emotions can also shut us off from the Spirit

God created us to feel deeply. When we embrace our emotions, we open ourselves to greater peace, joy, and spiritual connection.
