We covered a lot of ground in this inspiring interview! Rekishia McMillan, honorably discharged from the Air Force, suffered from PTSD from a horrible military accident, that created anxiety, digestive disorders and chronic fatigue and pain. She went on to discover lifestyle and functional medicine to heal and become vibrant, with a new career! She knows all about transformation!
Like me, Rekishia says, “I believe that it is God’s will for us to feel, look and live better. Somewhere along the way, Christians have disconnected their spirituality from physical health. This was never meant to be thecase. We must get back to the divine blueprint for health. We were created with a spirit, soul and a body and in order to experience optimal health, all three components must be nurtured and cared for.”Rekishia McMillan has battled with her on personal demons of overcoming illness, doubt, fear and anxiety, some of which stemmed from negative childhood experiences and her military service. She shares her personal health journey and the frustration she experienced with the complexities of the healthcare system.Through her journey she discovered simple and natural ways of reversing the illnesses that were plaguing her world. By putting these same strategies to use, she helps women and men to experience vibrant health and renewed energy.In her book found on Amazon, Rock Your World Naturally: 7 Divine Keys to Unlock Extraordinary Health, Rekishia guides the reader to…Discover God’s plan for total health (body, soul and spirit)Crush the cycle of following ineffective fad dietsExperience natural and lasting weight lossLearn how to become your own personal health advocateAchieve total alignment for your body soul and spiritHeighten your awareness of the earth through responsible stewardship Understand the relationship between your blood cells and divine healthIdentify and overcome hidden obstacles that are wrecking your world – for good!For more information:www.rekishiamcmillan.comPODCAST1 hr 6 min - A Rock, a Hard Place, Miracles and Eating Spiders

About Spark Faith Podcast
From the publisher's feed
Welcome to Spark Faith, where faith, physiology, and real life come together.
I’m Dr. Kris Sargent, and after more than 34 years in functional medicine, I’ve learned that caring for your health isn’t about chasing perfection, following extremes, or constantly trying to “do better.”
It’s about understanding the body God gave you—and learning how to care for it in the season of life you’re actually living.
On Spark Faith, I help Christian women understand what’s happening in their bodies and make informed, practical choices around metabolism, hormones, nutrition, stress, sleep, movement, strength, gut health, and nervous-system regulation.
Because your body changes. Your life changes. And what worked for you before may not work for you now.
Together, we’ll talk about what’s happening, why it matters, and what you can do about it—so you can learn to pay attention, adjust when needed, and keep moving forward instead of constantly starting over.
This is Living F.R.E.S.H.
Foundation • Regulation • Energy • Strength • Health
I believe health isn’t a destination. It’s a direction.
Renewed Health. Rooted in Truth. Restored by Grace.
