Episode 5: Feasting and Fasting - My Unexpected Spiritual Journey with Intermittent Fasting
In November of 2020, after years of yo-yo dieting and self-loathing, I hit rock bottom when my quarantine feasting had led me to an all-time high on the scale accompanied by serious aches and pains that had me very concerned for my health. A major life event was a wake-up call and I began intermittent fasting through a program I found on Facebook. Little did I expect that this new "health kick" would not only be so different for my physical body but also for my spiritual self. This podcast takes listeners on my journey over the past year with food and God and the events that have led me closer to a healthier relationship with both.

Episode 4: Making tough decisions that are tough on you
In the midst of the pandemic, parents became teachers overnight. Those who never signed up for homeschooling now had no other choice. As the summer of 2020 lingered, many faced the decision of sending their kids back to school, or not. Would it be safe? Would they be able to wear a mask all day? Is giving them social connection more important than their health? What's best for them?
In this episode, Heather and I discuss what we do when we are confronted with making decisions that don't seem to have a clear answer or a good outcome for us personally. Where is God in all this struggle and how do we find the path he is asking us to follow?
