Stephanie Hodges wishes she hadn’t waited so long to boldly share her message of holistic health—body and soul, not just spirit—as a godly pursuit. Her book, The Daniel Fast Journey, is about the transformative experience of fasting for spiritual and physical health. This episode not only offers a primer for those who have been curious about fasting but also shares Stephanie’s journey of not shrinking back from the dream God had placed on her heart for His people.

Getting over the fear, imposter syndrome, comparison, and the lack of time she had for her God-shaped dream were all hurdles that Stephanie Hodges battled as she began to step into her dream. But through it all, she learned to put God first, walk by faith, and not shrink back even when she felt powerless on her own.

If you glean anything from this episode, I hope it is encouragement to grow in boldness as you pursue what God has given you to do with your one life. 

Other lessons to learn from this conversation with Stephanie:

• How to “make time” to use the gifts God has given you,
• Why she’d tell you not to wait to put your message out into the world, and
• The importance of surrounding yourself with a community of encouragers once you say yes to the dream.

Additionally, if you have ever been curious about fasting as a spiritual discipline, you’ll hear her talk about what fasting is, why people do it, how the Bible commands it, and how to get the free resource she’s offering towards the end of the conversation to help you get started with a simple 10 day fast.
