Made Good

As we approach the season of Lent, many women with a history of disordered eating can feel anxious about the idea of fasting. In this brief but insightful conversation with Father Wayne Sattler, we explore how women can approach Lent with a healing mindset—balancing spiritual growth and self-compassion, while navigating the potential triggers fasting can bring. Father Sattler offers gentle guidance for those who struggle with fasting, helping us see this sacred season through a lens of faith and wellness.

This conversation is part of a longer episode with Father Sattler that will be released in a few weeks, but I wanted to share this powerful snippet before we enter into Lent.

This 33-day journey invites us to deepen our devotion to Mary, allowing her to form us more fully into the likeness of her Son, Jesus. Fr.

Audience Questions Answered:

• How to connect with Mary when your own mother has been unreliable?
• Feeling unworthy of consecration—what to do when you think you’re “not good enough”?
• How to reconcile the tension of relating to Mary’s perfection when we are imperfect?

Do you ever feel stuck in a cycle of trying to “fix” your body, only to feel more frustrated with it? Could it be that in our search for health, we’ve overlooked the deeper truth of how God made our bodies to flourish? What is true healing lies in understanding God’s design for our bodies rather than in constantly trying to change them? Through this talk, you’ll discover the lies you’ve been told about women’s health, tools to embrace your feminine body, and reclaim a path that supports your mind, body, and soul. Florencia is the founder of The Catholic Nutritionist and host of the Made Good Podcast.
