Get Organized with a Planner Write down ALL your holiday events, parties, and gatherings Plan ahead for what you'll eat, when you'll move your body, and how you'll stay consistent Seeing it all on paper helps you feel in control instead of overwhelmed 2. Recreate Holiday Meals at Home You don't have to skip your favorite dishes just make them healthier Swap out processed ingredients for clean, God-made alternatives Host your own gatherings so YOU control the menu 3. Ask: "How Do I Want to Feel?" Before reaching for that second plate or dessert, pause and ask yourself this question Do you want to feel energized, satisfied, and proud? Or sluggish, bloated, and regretful? Choose foods that align with how you want to feel not just what tastes good in the moment 4. Keep Movement at the Center Don't wait until January to prioritize exercise Daily movement (even 20-30 minutes) helps manage stress, balance hormones, and keep your metabolism going Make it non-negotiable, even during busy holiday weeks 5.

5 - Kingdom Wellness Protocol: God Made Foods & Hormone Balance for Weight Loss
Episode Description: There are so many different approaches to weight loss, calorie counting, macro tracking, keto, low carb, so what actually works? In this episode, I'm breaking down my Kingdom Wellness Protocol: the two core principles that transformed my health and helped me lose 100 pounds. We're talking about God-made foods versus man-made factory foods, and how to naturally balance the three fat-storing hormones keeping you stuck. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why I don't believe in "my way is the only way" when it comes to weight loss The two foundational principles of the Kingdom Wellness Protocol The 3 fat storing hormones you need to manage: insulin, estrogen, and cortisol Why I personally advocate for healthy keto/low carb living (and the difference between the two) How keto naturally eliminates "food noise" just like GLP1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy) The truth about insulin resistance and why constant blood sugar spikes keep you stuck How excess estrogen creates a vicious cycle that makes fat loss harder Why cortisol (the stress hormone) tells your body to hold onto belly fat My honest approach: what I actually did to lose 100 pounds (it wasn't just one thing) Next Steps: ✅ Subscribe so you never miss an episode ✅ Check out the Kingdom Wellness Keto Course CLICK HERE ✅ Share this episode with a friend who needs to hear this message Love This Episode?

4 - The Truth About "I'd Rather Be Happy and Fat" Mindsets
Have you ever caught yourself saying, "I'd rather be happy and fat" as you reached for food you knew wasn't aligned with your goals? In this episode, we're unpacking the mindset shifts that are absolutely essential for lasting weight loss because your thoughts literally create your reality. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why the phrase "I'd rather be happy and fat" is actually a permission slip, not a choice How your thoughts create emotions, which drive your actions (and results) The most common mindset blocks keeping Kingdom women stuck in yo-yo dieting cycles Why all-or-nothing thinking sabotages your progress How identity attachment ("I've always been a big girl") keeps you from your transformation The real reason you need a long-term identity shift, not just another meal plan How to move from "I'm trying to lose weight" to "I'm someone who takes care of myself" Real client testimonies of women who lost 75+ pounds by addressing both practical and mental/emotional roadblocks Key Takeaways: Your thoughts → emotions → actions = your results Sustainable weight loss requires becoming a different version of yourself You don't have to choose between happiness and health—that's a false choice Food doesn't have to have power over you Resources Mentioned: Ready to address your mindset and create your personalized plan for success?
