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 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.

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.

Whether you’re a coach, a manager, business owner, or a parent, you have the ability to affect someone’s future. Winning is something short-lived, temporary and has an “end result” mindset. Success is about the character building while enjoying the experience-long term! Listen up as I throw some thoughts out there about how we are damaging lives while we are striving to win or create “winners.” This episode is about an issue I am seeing more and more on social media and in life-either people want no winners and losers or they push to win and be #1...meanwhile we are failing to help build the younger generations as we fight for the way we think it should be. Get out a notepad and write some of these things down! Join me on this journey in becoming the best version of me-in finding your full potential and purpose as a child of the most high!

The HARDEST choice I ever made in life was allowing someone else to raise my child. No, abortion wasn’t even in my vocabulary, even with all the pain and abuse. ADOPTION is so rewarding for both sides if you can allow yourself to push through the pain if you’re a birth mom. I know I gave this child the best start in his life that I could and I am forever grateful that his adoptive parents allowed me to be present in his life and theirs when they didn’t have to. On holidays and special occasions, he and I have the longest and deepest conversations via FaceTime and it’s a blessing and honor to see this young man grow and mature! Today he is 14 years old! In honor of his birthday, I have a special podcast episode that was hard to record but I needed to share the story for others to know they are NOT ALONE. Please SHARE this and spread the hope of redemption and grace. Domestic abuse is a problem in our world and we need to UPLIFT & EMPOWER women facing these things. Thank you for all the love and support. ❤️💙

Are you just going through the motions when you pray? What is prayer to you? I was listening to the hymn, “What a Friend We Have in Jesus,” and I was inspired to talk more on prayer today, coming off of my last episode about prayer and fasting. Are you praying to God like He is your best friend, your Father, your genie, your acquaintance, a fictitious entity? The Bible speaks to us about prayer all throughout and it started from when God made Adam and conversed with him daily. Here are a few key things about prayer: Be Still (see Psalms 4:4 & Psalms 46:10); Pray and ask earnestly & humbly (see Ephesians 6:18 & Philippians 4:6); and trust (see Proverbs 3:5-6, Psalms 33:20-22 & Psalms 37:4-5) In this episode I talk about laying down my pride, letting God use me to pray for others (and YOU), being obedient and submissive, and praying about EVERYTHING! Sister, I’d LOVE to put this more into practice by praying for YOU! Whatever requests you have, you can email them to me: cara@grace2conquer.com or go to my website and use the contact form bit.lyGrace2Conquer or find my on our Facebook groups (search groups for “Grace2Conquer”) or through messenger: Cara Foote Also, if you like my show, please subscribe and leave me a review-every month I draw a random name from the new reviews and any social media shout-outs for a gift from my own store (usually a t-shirt or bracelet) and a Starbucks gift card! Thank you!!! XoXo ~Cara

Have you ever fasted with a purpose? Wow! Just wow! I know it’s something that we, as children of God, talk about and read about, but when was the last time you actually did? Let me just tell you, for me it was a loooong time ago. It made me feel hangry and uncomfortable and I always just thought “yeah, yeah...I’ll pray but I’m still going to eat!” Recently from multiple sources, I could tell God was trying to get through to me on this so I finally submitted and fasted. Guys, it CHANGED me!!! I don’t know if it was in the submitting, or if food is that much of a vice for me, but God spoke to me!!! This episode is my recap of my day as I fasted and what God reminded me of and so here I am to share this quick recap for you and get back to the work that God has laid on my heart! Also, here is a link to the song I’ve referenced in the podcast: https://youtu.be/Q8rvtbPkuJY And the lyrics as promised! Don’t forget to leave me a review or even better...SUBSCRIBE!

Comparisonitis is real! Beautiful Warrior, it’s time to take a step back and ask God for insight into the areas you might have been deceived. I’m talking Social media, social selling, MLMs and network marketing companies and how what you may think is you helping others, could actually be preventing you from your purpose! Have you joined a company like Beachbody (selling Shakeology), It Works!, Herbalife, or Partylite, Scentsy, Pampered Chef, Tupperware...you get my point! What do these companies have in common? They are all social selling companies and if you sit back and do nothing, you will go nowhere. What incentives do they give you to work with them? Why did you join them? I talk about some of my experiences with these companies (Xyngular was the main one) and then how I joined the struggle as a “Legionnaire” with 1st Phorm. Join me on this journey in becoming the best version of me-in finding your full potential and purpose in a daughter of the most high!
