Today, Steph Darst, owner of FitCrew.Online, joins me on the podcast and shares her story of how God healed her disordered eating that started at the age of 9 and found freedom through her faith with her health and fitness. She went from restricting her calories to 1000 or less a day to no longer even owning a scale. Steph will inspire you that working out to just look better on the outside leaves a lot left on the table and there is so much more to fitness.

Steph compares training our physical body with that of training our spirit. It is when things get broken down and pushed harder than they have before that they are able to rebuild stronger and more focused. "We train inside these walls to prepare for what's outside these walls". "We train because love is heavy." These are just a couple of the incredible things that Steph shares with us on today's podcast.

Please listen and be encouraged to start your fitness journey wherever you are and know that any workout is better than no workout. It is about being intentional with your time. Take the time to share this episode with all your momma friends that may be struggling to figure out how to get activity back in their lives with babies and toddlers around. Check out FitCrew. Online for what resources Steph has to offer to help as well.

Steph Bio:
For way too long, the way I viewed and used my body swung on a pendulum between obsession and neglect. Finally, in 2013, I began to invite the Lord into the conversation surrounding my health and wellness for the first time in my life. As I learned to honor Him with my body, I found freedom in the middle: No longer obsessing OR neglecting... but enjoying life in freedom! It didn't take long for me to realize this freedom was meant to be shared. I began my journey as a group fitness instructor, personal trainer, & yoga teacher, and have never looked back.
After years of teaching classes in-person, I created FitCrew.Online as a virtual community committed to empowering women to honor God in the areas of fitness and wellness. All of my classes weave together biblical teaching with movement, for an encouraging experience that will quickly become a welcome addition to your fitness routine.
Faith + Fitness... can we do that? Oh yeah. Hop aboard this freedom train... There's plenty of room!
