Burnout, Food & Faith: How Christian Women Heal Without Willpower or Shame with Dr. Laurette Willis

Описание: You love God.
You lead boldly.
But if you’re honest… you’re tired of carrying everything — your calling, your career, your marriage, your motherhood, and the pressure to “have it all together.”


If food feels like your comfort after long days of pouring out…
If burnout has you disconnected from your body and distant from God…
If you’re successful on paper but spiritually worn thin — this episode will meet you right where you are.


In this powerful and vulnerable conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Laurette Willis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and known as The Christian Weight Loss Coach. She shares how God transformed her lifelong struggle with overeating and yo-yo dieting into a ministry that helps women of faith release weight without dieting, deprivation, or willpower — and more importantly, without shame.


Together, we talk about:

• Why high-achieving Christian women turn to food when they’re emotionally and spiritually depleted
• The hidden connection between burnout, control, and overeating
• How God redeems our weakest places and turns them into our greatest assignments
• What it really looks like to become a vessel of honor — body, mind, and spirit
• How to stop striving and start healing at God’s pace

Dr. Laurette is also the founder of PraiseMoves Fitness Ministry, reminding us that worship isn’t just something we sing — it’s something we live, even in our bodies.


Sis, your issue isn’t discipline.
It’s depletion.
And freedom begins when you stop performing and start surrendering.
