When you need comfort and love, do you turn to food? Do you find yourself worshipping food - almost unconsciously? It reminds me of the Bible verse, "their god is their stomach" which appears in Philippians 3:19. If you find yourself thinking about food all day long - from breakfast to lunch to dinner with snacks in between, then you are not alone. This week's guest is my client Teresa Villano, who joined the Delay and Pray® program a year ago and has been an active member since then. She has been a Nurse Practitioner for 26 years and shares her experience with dieting and weight struggles. She has come a long way, once telling me: Obesity kept me from seeing my potential sainthood and the true purpose of my life - serving the Lord, not my appetite. I have changed that now. Hear how spiritual fasting helped her ditch 30 pounds, regain her faith, and make Jesus the best friend that she has always longed for.

If you are on the road to sainthood, then we can take our cues from the great saints and make our decisions as they made theirs. We were created to be virtuous, which means making the right choices not only for our souls, but for the good of others as well. These decisions are tough sometimes, but worth it. What We Can Be, We Must Be! I encourage you to stay committed to your goals, lean into hardships, and harness the power of community and prayer to achieve a healthier, holier life.

Delay and Pray® has changed my life in so many ways for the better. It is a method of spiritual fasting that helps you regain your spiritual edge and grow in virtue while becoming fit in both body and soul. It isn’t a diet because it is centered on Christ and detachment from food and alcohol as comfort. God should be our comforter. Today I discuss all of this in the context of the 3 M’s of Delay and Pray® that are so important to remember in driving incredible results in both body and soul and why overeating and overdrinking hinder your ability to both physically and spiritually fast.

As a Catholic Mindset Coach, I use a Thomistic Thought Model which teaches that your thoughts create your results. What I have found is that this is true about weight and also about money. If you think you can't lose the weight and find food freedom even through Spiritual Fasting - you won't do it. If you think you'll never find financial freedom, then you'll never have it. But if you can change your mindset about these things - invite Jesus into it and meld your will into His - then the sky is the limit and all of a sudden, food freedom and financial freedom are yours! Amanda Teixeira from WalletWin is on the show to talk about money. She and her husband Jonathan founded WalletWin to provide Catholic financial freedom for the whole family.

Merry Christmas! We have made it through Advent and are now in the Christmas Octave, which extends the Christmas celebration from Christmas Day through New Year's Day - the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God. The Christmas Octave is truly the time to rest and feast on friendship and family. Remember feasting is not binge-eating. Eating to enough feels good and celebratory at the same time. Don't forget to binge on Sacraments, Activities, and Connection. Today, I share a feasting plan to help us treat our body and soul as the gift that it is. Try redefining Feasting for yourself. Your life will change immensely. Help Beth reach her goal of bringing 1 Million Catholics back to the Church: Please subscribe to the podcast and leave a review!
