Have you considered that God wants you to be holistically abundant?

This was the mission of the Hope Inspired event I spoke at in March 2023. Along with my discussion on physical health, we also had experts in spiritual health and mental health as well.

In a special episode today, I am airing the panel discussion I was a part of with the University Place Presbyterian Church outside of Tacoma, Washington. I know you'll gain so much wisdom from Lorena and Jeannette, who offered gentle guidance in their areas of expertise.

You'll hear wisdom from panelists like:

• “You know you will have been a successful parent is when your children is in therapy, they are in therapy for different reasons than you were in therapy.”
• “For your child to say ‘I hate you,’ that means they trust you and you’re a safe place to land”
• How we feel led by God, and paying attention to how our body responds to different opportunities or experiences
• The awareness that God is always with us

I’m thrilled to have Kia Williams join the show and help us understand the holistic application of core work. Kia has such deep knowledge and experience with educating women about their core, and it’s demonstrated in her book Functional Core for Women.

Kia shares some of the myths surrounding core work, indicators that we need to strengthen our core, and shares two movements she believes are impactful to strengthening the core. 

Kia Williams, MBA, MS, is a JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusivity) advocate, global fitness presenter, published author, program specialist, wellness service provider, and the 2022 IDEA Fitness Instructor of the Year. Kia is the youngest person and first Black person awarded this highly acclaimed recognition. Kia’s heart dedications are for serving as the Wellness Chairwoman for the NAACP Fort Worth-Tarrant County Chapter, founding board member of Striking + Strong hair care brand, Fit4Mom board member, an executive board member for Jeremiah 33:6, a not-for-profit holistic health education and preventative medicine corporation. Kia's career mission is to support people who are affected by marginalization in jobs, education, healthcare, and lack of representation in the fitness industry. 

We discuss:

• Her path to becoming a fitness instructor
• What our core actually is
• Indicators we need to strengthen our core
• Myths surrounding core strength
• Recommended movements for someone who wants to strengthen their core

Purchase Functional Core for Women at Human Kinetics or Amazon
