What if the labels you've carried for years were never the labels God gave you?In this episode, I'm joined by Vicki Boggs as she shares her powerful testimony of becoming a teenage mom, carrying shame and condemnation for decades, and ultimately discovering the freedom that only Jesus can bring.I loved this conversation because it's a reminder that our past doesn't disqualify us from God's purpose. In fact, God often uses the very chapters we'd rather forget to prepare us for the calling He has planned all along.We also talk about how God used Vicki's nearly 40 years in healthcare, caring for her mother, and her own health journey to lead her to her mission today…..helping others steward their health through Stretch Zone and her faith-based wellness ministry, Strength Through Stewardship.If you've ever struggled with shame, believed lies about yourself, or wondered if God could still use your story, I pray this episode encourages you.Connect with VickiVicki is the owner of Stretch Zone Bloomington and the founder of Strength Through Stewardship, a Christian wellness ministry that helps people honor God by caring for the bodies He's entrusted to them through movement, nutrition, accountability, and biblical encouragement.Stretch Zone Bloomingtonhttps://www.stretchzone.com/locations/bloomington-inInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/sz_bloomington?igsh=MXVrMDNwZnN4bHZxeQ==FacebookStretch Zone Bloomington https://www.facebook.com/StretchZoneBloomingtonStrength Through Stewardship Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/share/193YH4DzLh/Connect with MeWant to get the inside scoop on each episode?

Have you ever looked around at your life and thought, "I have so much to be thankful for...so why do I feel so stuck?"If you've been feeling unmotivated, overwhelmed, or like you've somehow lost your spark, this episode is for you.In this episode, I'm sharing one of the hardest seasons I've walked through, even though everything looked “fine” from the outside. We'll talk about why motivation isn't something we wait for, but something we cultivate through intentional action, renewing our minds, surrounding ourselves with the right people, and drawing close to the Lord.If you're ready to stop waiting to "feel like it" and start becoming the woman God created you to be, I pray this conversation encourages you.Scriptures Mentioned:Ecclesiastes 11:4 – "Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap."Romans 12:2 – "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."Proverbs 13:20 – "Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm."Proverbs 27:17 – "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another."Mark 6:1–6 – Jesus is rejected in His hometown of Nazareth and continues His ministry from village to village.Psalm 37:4 – "Take delight in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart."Ready to Join My Next Peps & Steps Challenge?On July 13, I'm kicking off another Peps & Steps group, and I'd love for you to join us!

If you had asked me in January whether I'd be down more than 20 pounds by the end of June, I would have laughed.Because at that point… I felt completely stuck.I was doing all the “right” things. Or at least I thought I was.And yet, nothing was changing.In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what finally shifted—and why it wasn’t what I expected.There was one simple change that made a bigger impact than anything else I had tried… and honestly, I almost overlooked it.We’re also talking about a habit I didn’t realize was quietly holding me back, a mindset shift that changed everything, and why my mornings started to look very different.If you’ve ever felt like your body isn’t responding anymore, or like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing results… this conversation is for you.In This Episode:• The moment I realized something had to change• What I thought was helping… but actually wasn’t• The simple shift that made the biggest difference• A surprising habit that started working in my favor• Why my mornings became non-negotiable• The connection between faith, mindset, and physical health• What I’m focusing on now instead of just the scale• A challenge I want you to consider this weekScripture Mentioned1 Thessalonians 5:23"May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless."Join Me for Peps & Steps!One of the biggest breakthroughs in my own journey came from something incredibly simple… but most people overlook it.That’s why I’m kicking off another Peps & Steps Challenge beginning Monday, July 13, 2026.If you’ve been feeling stuck, this might be the missing piece.This challenge will help you:• Become more aware of your daily movement• Build consistency without overwhelm• Create accountability and momentum• Support your overall wellness goalsYou’ll have time to enjoy the Fourth of July with your family, get prepared, and then jump in with us on July 13.Connect with MeWant to learn more about the peptides I mentioned in today's episode?Website:www.TracyBalderach.comPeptides:www.TracyBalderach.com/peptidesInstagram:@FaithfullyFitTracyJoin My Private Faith + Wellness Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/livingfaithfullyfitwellnessPodcast News:www.tracybalderach.com/podcastLoved This Episode?If this episode encouraged you, would you take a moment to leave a review and share it with a friend who feels stuck in her health journey?Friend, just because you feel stuck right now… doesn’t mean you are.There’s more possible for you than you think.Press play and let’s talk about it.Pressing on & praying for you,Tracy

When the Breakthrough Shows Up Wearing SkinWhat if the breakthrough you've been praying for doesn't arrive the way you expected?What if God answers your prayer through a person?In this episode, I'm sharing why God continually points His people toward community, why isolation can be so dangerous in difficult seasons, and how some of His greatest blessings often arrive through the people He places in our lives.If you're in the middle of raising teenagers, navigating a challenging season, building something new, or simply feeling weary, I hope this conversation reminds you that you were never meant to walk through life alone.Scriptures Referenced2 Corinthians 12:9Galatians 6:9-10Interested in Learning More About My Business Mentorship & Affiliate Opportunity?I'm currently accepting applications for a new round of mentorship and affiliate training for women who feel called to grow, lead, serve others, and create additional income in this season of life.Learn more and apply here:https://www.tracybalderach.com/businessmentorshipConnect with Me:Want to get the inside scoop on each episode?

There are seasons in life that are obviously hard.And then there are seasons that look good on paper but still leave you feeling stuck, exhausted, anxious, or disconnected from the person you know God created you to be.This episode is a little different.What started as a leadership message I was asked to share with Make Wellness turned into a reflection on three moments over the last 7 months that completely changed how I show up in my life, my faith, and my business.One happened in a hospital room on Thanksgiving Day.One happened when I realized how much my habits had quietly drifted.And one happened at a Make Wellness event when I felt God calling me into a new season of purpose, leadership, and alignment.In this episode, I share the three lessons those moments taught me:• If you feel stuck, you may not need a new strategy. You may need a new vision.• Your habits matter more than you think.• Obedience unlocks momentum.If you're walking through a season of transition, questioning what's next, or simply feeling like something is "off" even though life looks good from the outside, I hope this conversation encourages you.Sometimes God isn't asking us to do more. Sometimes He's asking us to trust Him enough to take the next step.Ready for What's Next?One of the biggest lessons I share in this episode is that purpose doesn't end when motherhood changes.Over the last several months, I've had the opportunity to mentor women who want to create additional income, build something meaningful, and step into a new season of growth while still putting their faith and family first.If you've ever wondered whether there might be room for something more in this season of your life, I'd love to share what we're building.Learn more about my Business Mentorship Program here:👉 www.tracybalderach.com/businessmentorshipConnect with Me:Want to get the inside scoop on each episode?

Need a quick reset with Jesus?In this special 8-minute guided prayer episode, Tracy leads a prayer designed to help busy moms begin their day grounded in faith, gratitude, and surrender.Whether you're soaking in the first weeks of summer break or pushing through the final days of school, busy seasons can leave us feeling scattered and out of routine. The good news is that Jesus never changes.Together, we'll pause, renew our minds, place our children and responsibilities in God's hands, and invite Him into every conversation, appointment, interruption, and unexpected moment the day may bring.This is a prayer you can come back to again and again whenever life feels hectic and you need to reconnect with the One who remains constant through it all.Grab your coffee, find a quiet moment, and let's pray together.💌 Want more faith + wellness in your inbox?Join the email community at www.tracybalderach.com/podcast🎧 Be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend.Connect with Me:Want to get the inside scoop on each episode?

What Happens When You Stop Ignoring the Whisper?What if the whisper you've been sensing for years is actually God trying to lead you somewhere new?In this episode, Tracy sits down with Leigh Ann Henson for a powerful conversation about prayer, obedience, mindset, wellness, and the courage to take messy action before everything feels figured out.From changing her college major just before graduation to walking away from a 10-year teaching career during COVID, Leigh Ann shares how God continued nudging her toward something more and how the prayers spoken over her life years ago are still impacting generations today.This conversation will encourage the woman who feels stuck, uncertain, overwhelmed, or quietly wondering if God may be calling her into a new season.Scripture Referenced in This Episode:Romans 12:2“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is His good, pleasing and perfect will.”Philippians 4:8“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things.”Connect with Leigh Ann Henson:Leigh Ann Henson is a Certified Naturopathic Practitioner and Certified Health and Nutrition Coach from Arkansas.

Welcome back to The Living Faithfully Fit Podcast. This week, I’m talking about something I think almost every mom says on repeat, especially this time of year.“I’m just too busy.”As I was thinking about that phrase a few years ago, I started asking myself a different question and I want to share that perspective with you.“What am I actually saying no to?”Because many times the thing we are saying no to is actually the thing we deeply want.In this episode, I’m unpacking the hidden cost of constantly living in survival mode and sharing one of my favorite stories in the Bible from Acts chapter 12 about Peter in prison.If you’ve been mentally exhausted, overwhelmed, overthinking, or waiting for life to calm down before you move forward, I think this conversation will really encourage you.Let’s talk about all of it.

How many things have we repeated over ourselves for so long that they now feel true?“I’ll never lose the weight.”“I’m always going to feel exhausted.”“I’m too old.”“I’m not qualified.”“I missed my chance.”In today’s episode, I’m talking about the narratives we quietly agree with over time and how easily hopelessness can start shaping the way we see ourselves, our health, our purpose, and even this season of life.I’m also sharing a very personal story about this podcast and the lies I had to stop agreeing with in order to finally start.Maybe our greatest ability really is availability.Resources Mentioned in This Episode:✨ Join my FREE Lean for Life 5-Day Reset starting May 18th!This free 5-day experience will include:• Simple meals• Easy habits• Wellness support• Community accountability• Realistic steps to help you build momentum going into summerI’ll also be sharing a little about peptides because they’ve been part of my own wellness journey too.🎉 We’re also doing a giveaway!Invite 3 friends into the group and you’ll receive an entry to win either:• A vibration plate• Bala banglesUnlimited entries allowed.👉 Join the FREE Lean for Life 5-Day Group here:https://www.facebook.com/groups/leanforlife5daygroup💌 Want more faith + wellness in your inbox?Join me here: www.tracybalderach.com/podcastConnect with Me:Instagram: @FaithfullyFitTracyWebsite: www.TracyBalderach.com👉 Join my private faith + wellness community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/livingfaithfullyfitwellness🎧 Be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend.
