And you are not fighting alone.Jesus cares about your whole health journey — body, mind, and spirit — and this episode will encourage you to stop striving and start walking closely with Him again.Plus, let’s pray together at the end.And if this episode encourages you, please share it with another Fit Sister who needs this word today.💕📕 Want to go deeper?

Send us Fan MailFit Sister, have you ever felt like you’ve messed up too much… fallen too many times… or gone too far to truly start over?In this deeply powerful Warrior Up conversation, I sit down with Carla inside the chapel of the Los Angeles Dream Center as she shares her raw testimony of battling alcoholism, depression, destructive relationships, and the hopeless cycle of trying rehab after rehab ~ until Jesus stepped in and changed everything.But this episode doesn’t stop at her testimony.Carla also shares how she now fights to keep going when old thoughts, exhaustion, discouragement, and the temptation to stay in bed try to pull her back. We talk honestly about prayer, discipline, confession, resilience, fitness, and why showing up, especially when you don’t feel like it, can become one of the greatest tools God uses to rebuild your life.If you are tired of starting over…if you feel mentally worn down…if you wonder if God can still restore what feels shattered…this episode is for you.✨ In this episode we talk about:• alcoholism, depression & toxic relationship recovery• the moment Carla knew she wasn’t going back• how Jesus rebuilds women from the inside out• fighting discouragement with prayer & truth• why discipline matters when feelings fail• how fitness helped strengthen Carla mentally and spiritually• practical encouragement for the woman who feels stuckFit Sister, no matter how low you feel right now, believe this: Jesus can help you get up.🎧 Listen now and be encouraged.If this does encourage you, will please share it with another Fit Sister who needs this reminder today? 💕Want to go deeper?
