    But self-sabotage isn’t just psychological. There is a spiritual component. Join Kirsten as she dives into the spiritual aspects of self-sabotage!

  • E14: Exposing MAHA - The Truth Behind Both Sides Part 5

    A whistleblower cited censorship with the NIH.

    Kevin Hall, one of the leading scientists surrounding the impact of over consuming ultra-processed foods, resigned from the NIH due to censorship of his research.

    If this is true, we should be gravely concerned about the intentions of the MAHA movement.

    In this podcast, I don’t aim to sway you to one side.

    Instead, my aim is to help you think critically about this movement so that you can avoid deception as the movement unfolds.

    I talk about Kevin Hall’s resignation and other major red flags we Christians need to be aware of within the MAHA movement.

    In today's episode we cover 14 common fallacies politicians and wellness influencers use to make more money, gain votes, to win popularity.

    As we progress into the MAHA movement, understanding these fallacies are ESSENTIAL to prevent health deception. You must be well informed on how to spot misleading information on BOTH sides.

    We also chat about why BOTH the left and the right are getting it wrong when it comes to obesity AND we begin to shed light on how oligopolies are harming the health of Americans.

  • E12: Exposing MAHA - The Truth Behind Both Sides Part 3

    In today's episode, we do a deep dive into the politics + environmental and economic implications of the MAHA movement and wellness culture.

    I call out BOTH conservatives and liberals, Democrats and Republicans for "missing the forest for the trees."

    I also talk about how Trump's FIRST term was detrimental to human and environmental health.

    This has been one of my favorite talking points so far!

  • E11: Exposing MAHA - The Truth Behind Both Sides Part 2

    In today’s episode, we dive into the profit-driven side of both conventional and functional medicine—and how wellness culture is beginning to mirror Big Pharma's business model.

    We’ll unpack the ways gaslighting and fear-mongering are used to influence our health choices, whether it's from mainstream medicine or the alternative side.

    I add some necessary clarity to my "Food Myths" series, while setting the record straight on the "toxicity" of food.

    Lastly, we touch on the politics of MAHA and what’s truly important for us to understand and address moving forward.

    New Year, New Pressures. 

    On January 1st, the pressure to meet fitness, financial, and life goals can feel overwhelming, especially with the flood of ads promising you the "life of your dreams." But what if God's plan for you is different from the world's promises? In this episode, we explore how self-sabotage can derail your goals in 2025—and how the destructive patterns you face in one area of life impact ALL areas. The way you self-sabotage in one area of your life (like your health) is the SAME way you self-sabotage in ALL areas of your life, including your spiritual, mental, financial, and family goals. 

    Join Kirsten for a deep dive into the top 6 self-sabotage pitfalls AND 6 powerful solutions to break free and move forward in alignment with stewardship.

About Abiding At The Table

From the publisher's feed

As Christians, we are called to be stewards of our body. But what does that look like in modern day diet culture which often turns fitness into an idol, leaving women stuck in shame, fear, and dysfunctional cycles around dieting?
