For this week's podcast, I sit down with Flo, The Catholic Nutritionist — a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and FEMM Instructor — to explore how our relationship with food and our bodies is intertwined with our spiritual lives. Flo vulnerably shares her journey from disordered eating to food freedom and how God redeemed her understanding of nourishment, health, and holiness.

Together, we discuss the beauty of the female body, especially in pregnancy and motherhood, and how learning to care for our bodies can become an act of worship and stewardship. This episode is a must-listen for Catholic women seeking to reconnect their physical health with their spiritual life.

You’ll hear about:

• Flo’s personal story of disordered eating, gut issues, and finding healing through faith
• How pregnancy reflects God’s design of generosity and sacrifice
• Integrating theology and physiology — why grace builds on nature
• Recognizing disordered patterns with food that often go unnoticed
• What true freedom in Christ looks like when it comes to food and body image
• Practical steps to begin healing your relationship with food
• How to see your body as a friend rather than an enemy
• The vital role of prayer and the sacraments in physical healing
• Key nutrition principles for pregnancy — protein, minerals, and nourishment for you and your baby
• A heartfelt message for postpartum moms learning to love their bodies again
