Are you exhausted from going one diet or fitness program to the next without success? Are you a mom who finds herself comparing her body or life to what you see on social media? Are you trying to navigate your own health and fitness struggles and balance it out with your faith? Say no more! I’m your girl and you’ve come to the right place. My name is Cara Foote and I have BEEN THERE, beautiful warrior! I created this Faith-filled podcast because I knew the things I have gone through in my life were to be able to help you in your current season and situation! I am a certified personal trainer with a specialty in holistic nutrition and I want to help you find freedom by discovering the truth and what God says about all this. I realized I used to be a part of the problem-encouraging others to push hard and hustle with their fitness goals. Now I’m part of the SOLUTION-helping you UN-HUSTLE and NOURISH your body and your soul so that you can be more peaceful and productive while balancing your own life. From Romans 8:37 “We are more than Conquerors through Him.” I believe that we are given GRACE to break through any stronghold and overcome any trial we have been through or will go through. Come along with me through this journey and discover more about life as a Christian mother and learn some tips and tricks the RIGHT way. And don’t forget to join my Facebook group where we encourage one another and have some fun while doing it: https://www.facebook.com/groups/220473999028997/ You can also contact me directly through www.grace2conquer.com or email me at cara@grace2conquer.com Thank you for listening and subscribing!

Have you EVER been on a “diet” or an “exercise program”?!
How many different times have you tried to do something that would alter your physical state of being?
Girl…ME TOO!! More than I can count…even after I first became a trainer in 2013, I still had so many warped ways of thinking plus a bad relationship with food and the thought that I had to run 4 miles, fasted, every morning in the pursuit of “being thinner.” Mind boggling really! Oh yes, at the time I lost weight and was the smallest I’d been (couldn’t even wear the smallest Women’s clothes without swimming in them)…but guess what? I was SO mentally unstable and just emotionally damaged. Over the following years I had this back and forth, two steps forward, one step backwards, way of getting there. Why? Because I’m stubborn and hard-headed and was certain to be approved of or be worthy, I had to look a certain type of way. I would feel guilty if I ate fried foods so I wouldn’t eat much at all. I was trapped and consumed with comparing myself to other girls in the gym.
But I remember really learning to love myself and only seek God’s approval and one day, at the gym, I was finally able to look at other girls and say to myself “God is good…” Girls that wore hardly anything to show off their bodies; girls who wore the baggiest clothes to hide their bodies; girls who wore tight clothes that could care less what their bodies look like. And so I was grateful that we are ALL unique and have good bodies full of life.
Today’s episode is all about body image and breaking free from self-sabotage and comparisonitis that we so often subconsciously fall into. Going into this New Year, we are bombarded by fad diets, fitness programs and challenges, and promises to help us lose all the pounds that we gained over the holidays or over COVID. But it’s going to cost you…listen to the full episode to find out how!
