GO TO GOD FIRST with Kim Dolan Leto episodes

  • 23. Jesus, Our Light in the Darkness
    Have you been taught limiting beliefs?

    Did you know limiting beliefs don't come from God?

    Sweet friend, You were saved to shine for God, and to bring Him glory.

    Pause for a moment

    Do you experience limiting beliefs about God?

    Ask God to reveal His heart for you as a Father.

    Did you know God wants to be glorified through your successes?

    Faith Fuel:

    You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

    Matthew 5:14-16 ESV

    I'm never going to leave you without asking you to get into action.

    Nothing happens without action, and I'm here to be your accountability partner.

  • 21. Faith and Fitness: Free Workouts and Recipes

    Today is all about you!

    I've created a huge present.

    This is no little download or video, it's an entire Faith and Fitness Library of Resources: from recipes to workouts to learning how to do this through faith, I've got you covered.

    Although, the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast launched only two months ago, I've received an overwhelming amount of questions.

    I took all of them and even your struggles and made you exactly what you asked for.

    And guess what, it's free!

    With so many of us trying to make ends meet right now.

    I want you to know I see you, and I'm here for you.

    • If you can't go to the gym right now
    • If you don't know where to start with food, fitness or with your faith
    • If you need to believe in yourself again
    • If you want to grow closer to Jesus and know your worth
    • If you want to become the woman God created you to be

    This is your answer.

    I believe so strongly that women need a different answer to fitness, dieting and how they see their bodies, so with a lot of prayer, I dove in.

    I'm really excited about this, because I believe with all my heart in giving back.

    You've got to check this out.

    It isn't available anywhere else, but on my website: https://www.kimdolanleto.com under "Learn with Kim."

    I really hope you take advantage of the Strong Confident His Free Resource Library.

    Share this with a friend, your daughter, Church group or bible study.

    Today's Power Up Challenge is going to be very different.

    I'm challenging you to head to my website kimdolanleto.com, go to the "Learn with Kim" section and get this Strong. Confident. His. Free Resource Library..

    I'm here for you, praying for you and cheering you on!

    It's time to put an end to living less than and dare to believe!

    We are Strong. Confident. His. Sisters-in-Christ!

    With a big virtual hug,

    Kim

  • 20. Unlock Success With My 3-S Formula

    Today's show is real talk for women who love Jesus and fitness but can't seem to get to their goals…

    If I had a nickel for every time someone asked me what the secret to success was, I'd have a million dollars!

    Success with losing weight, toning up, leaning out, landing a magazine cover, starting a business, book or podcast.

    People reach out to me in desperation and beg me to give them the secret, but sweet friend, it does not exist!

    So why is it so hard to make healthy living a habit?

    Even when we're armed with our greatest determination and countless diet and training plans, it should be easy; but it's not.

    Somewhere between setting fitness goals and facing reality, we trade healthy habits for quick-fix gimmicks and temporary results.

    But where is Jesus in any of this?

    I left Him out of my fitness goals for far too long.

    My painful battle with losing weight and keeping it off led me to dark, desperate places where I tried diet pills and every fad diet I could find, and the end result was weight gain, frustration, and further self-loathing. Weighing myself daily, the number on the scale would determine my mood until God showed me how incredibly unhealthy this was and how to stop the vicious cycle.

    I know how hard this is.

    Even when we know better, we get tripped by the easy way out, quick fix gimmick, could it be true will it work, it's like they get us in our low points and it's just too irresistible for us not to try it, right?

    Just as I did, I want to help you trade the crazy chaos for success as a fearfully and wonderfully made woman of God.

    In prayer, God gave me this to give to you.

    My Success Equation:

    Seek + Surrender + Show Up = Success

    Seek God + Surrender it Daily to Him + Show Up for Him = Success

    Okay now you know I'm never going to leave you without asking you to get into action…nothing happens without action and I'm here to be your accountability partner.

    Join my Power Up Challenge!

    Come say hello on social media and let me know what S spoke to you the most, or how this formula helped you.

    When you do…you're automatically entered into my Power Up Challenge! I pick one winner every week, and you'll get Either a 10 minute call from me, a copy of my best-selling christian fitness book Faith Inspired Transformation, the FIT workout series or some fun Christian swag.

    I'm invested in your success friend.

    If you'd like to start applying these 3 S's today..make sure you go to my site and download my free resources..

    Cheers to seeking, surrendering and showing up!

    Can I get an Amen!

    Remember, sweet friend,

    God only made 1 you!

    He calls you His masterpiece, you are a piece of the Master

    You are Strong. Confident. His.

    From my heart to yours.

  • 19. Press On and Persist Until You Succeed!

    Hey there, friend!

    Todays' show hits home for me in a very big way. This devotional comes straight from the pages of my journal.

    People ask me quite often, Kim how are you able to take on these goals and finish them… and the truth isn't pretty.

    Here it is, I slip, trip and fail my way across the finish line of success… It sounds funny to say, but if it wasn't for the Word of God to power me through, I would be a Jesus lovin' hot mess!

    If you need some bff girl time and a big dose of faith-filled motivation, this show is for you!

    Philippians 3:12-14 says,

    Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

    >Our challenge is to forget what lies behind, to press on when we want to give up and to celebrate the women He is making each of us into.

    Hebrews 10:35-36 says,

    So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.

    Has anyone ever told you that, you are strong!

    You are! In the strength of God, you can press on, persevere and persist until you succeed.

    It all starts with just doing today.

    In this moment, I believe God is asking you to take the next step with Him. One step at a time is not too difficult.

    I want to leave you with one closing thought…

    The enemy is waiting for you to quit, don't do it..don't let him win.

    Let's pinky promise, we're going to press on!

    Okay now you know I'm never going to leave you without asking you to get into action…nothing happens without action.

    So it's about that time!

    >>>Power up!

    Make sure to SUBSCRIBE on the platform you listen on and head over to my social media, leave me a comment about what you took away from todays' show because when you do…you're automatically entered into my Power Up Challenge!

    I pick one winner every week, and you'll get Either a 10-minute call from me, a copy of my best-selling christian fitness book Faith Inspired Transformation, the FIT workout series or some fun Christian swag.

    Until next time

    Remember, sweet friend,
