Have you ever followed every plan, hit every macro, finished every hard workout — and still felt completely disconnected from your own body? What if the missing piece isn't more discipline? What if it's learning to listen?

In this episode, I sit down with my personal nutrition and breathwork coach, Rebecca Stonhill, owner of EnVie Fitness Nutrition and Wellness in Meridian, Idaho. Rebecca left a 20-year corporate HR career to follow God's call to help women build strength, balance, and confidence from the inside out — and her faith-based approach has genuinely been the most transformative thing I've done in 2026.

What we cover:

What "embodiment" actually means — and how to practice it practically
The biggest nutrition mistakes midlife women make (food jail, all-or-nothing, and not eating enough)
Why hitting 100g of protein daily and going 1% better beats every fad diet
What faith-based breathwork actually looks like — prayer, worship music, and nervous system regulation
How breathwork helped me fall back asleep in the middle of the night for the first time in years
Why "when we feel, we can heal" changes everything
Rebecca's free breathwork session offer in the Breathing Room

Rebecca's one takeaway: Stop white-knuckling life. What would it look like to take three minutes, breathe, and trust that God has something for you there?
