Today we're talking about what the fitness industry got wrong. Okay. If you are frustrated with your

fitness results, you want to hear this, especially if you're a Christian woman. And today I'm feeling

feisty and on fire because this is going to be real and vulnerable. All right, I've been there.

We're talking about fitness, God's way versus the world's way. And the reason I am so passionate about

feel like you're not enough, you'll keep chasing the next diet, the next

workout plan, the next transformation. And even when I reached my goals, even when I stepped on
