Old School Food Freedom

Okay y’all, we have another fired-up episode of the Old School Food Freedom Podcast to kick off 2024! Our enemy, Satan, has tried to steal WAY too much territory from us… and sometimes we forget that we have the power in Christ to take it back. In this conversation, host Chrissy Kirkman and guest Amia Freeman unravel the complexities of finding freedom in movement and explore the transformative journey of embracing “grace mode” over “beast mode”. (RED FLAG! We don’t want to do ANYTHING in his mode.)

Be motivated in your own journey as you hear their personal experiences and insights on overcoming fear, stepping out in faith, and reclaiming territories from the enemy. We pray you’ll feel encouraged to adopt a more grace-filled approach to life, health, and movement and experience true freedom by embracing God’s love and purpose.

Season 3 of the Old School Food Freedom Podcast is here! In our first episode, FINDINGbalance Executive Director and host Chrissy Kirkman chats with Megan Becker, MS, RD who highlights how seemingly small life experiences and innocuous comments, often referred to as "micro-shame moments," can significantly impact our self-perception. Megan emphasizes the importance of breaking free from the body-image fixation passed down through generations and discusses how grace is the key to overcoming guilt and shame narratives.Acknowledging that everyone is at a different stage in their awareness of diet culture's impact and the journey to freedom from it, Megan shares how embracing a grace-rooted approach, both for yourself and others, helps you discover the art of nurturing your well-being while keeping your focus on God as the ultimate source of healing and freedom.
