80% of the results you are looking for come down to your nutrition. Yes, I know it is hard, but we can do hard things. I struggled with having a healthy nutritional mindset for many years. Under-eating - Over exercising - Poor self image - Struggles with the number on the scale etc. were a few of my toxic traits when it came to health, but I am here today to tell you that there indeed is FREEDOM in not only loving yourself for who God created you to be, but that there is also freedom in a healthy relationship with food!  There are many things that have helped me combat those poor habits & one of those is learning to have a plan, being prepared & diving in to learning how to meal prep! Here are 3 of my Simple Meal Prep Tips! ENJOY & remember... You, my friend are worthy of being taken care of!  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kala-brown/support

The enemy desires your gifts, the gifts that God has placed inside of you, to sit inactive, dormant and inoperative, but there is HOPE.. That hope is Christ!

When God is shifting you in to a new season there are shifts to be made. Shifts that bring growth & shifts that take a lot of inner work. That inner work often brings a fight that we must be willing to battle with God, for God & because of God. This is the fight of "Divided Motives" & the fight of getting over ourselves. Join me today as we not only dive in to what the divided motives are, but what God's Word says He brings us during our obedience to follow and fight! Keep moving forward friend! God's purpose and plan is worth running towards & fighting for!  Scripture reading from 2 Corinthians 12:7-10  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kala-brown/support

The New Year comes at a time of year when feelings of anxiety, depression and other mental health struggles are at an all time high. This increase is often due to the colder weather, ebbs and flows of the holiday seasons, lack of daylight hours and triggers of loss and grief.  Sure many are looking at the start of a New Year as a way to improve and recommit to their goals and resolutions, but that is not the case for everyone.  Research show that only 16% of those who come in to the New Year setting big goals and resolutions actually succeed.  Want to know what happens?  Because many are not seeing immediate success the feelings of inadequacy, doubt, lack of self confidence and excuses flow causing mental health to decline. Everything in life starts with in our minds. What we feed it (positive or negative) grows.  I want to challenge you with something. Instead of worrying about setting big goals and resolutions to "fit it" with the culture, start with working on your mental health and mindset FIRST! Our mental health is essential because it drives how we think, how we act and how we grow. Once we start with the inside work than the outside work (the big goals we are usually focused on at the first of the year) will follow!  Tune in today to hear some of my practical and easy Mental Health tips to starting the New Year off right! As always, share this with a friend!

This is the time of year where we are hearing about goals, vision casting & dreaming big and although there is nothing wrong with that, I know for some people this can lead to feelings of overwhelm and inadequacy.  More than likely you fall in to 1 of 2 categories... 1. Become inspired - Take action - Create your own system of goal setting  2. Compare yourself - Feel paralyzed - Take very little or no action Today I am talking to those of you who fall in to category 2. Why? Because you are me!  Join me as we discuss why goal setting can be hard and how we can potentially make that easier leading so small step and action!  www.instagram.com/kala_brown08 purposelyfit.issacertifiedtrainer.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kala-brown/support
