Hey Everyone! I'm flying solo here today and we are talking about FATLOSS. January 2022 is just around the corner and some of you all are wanting to lose weight but your prolapse or pelvic floor and core dysfunction is stopping you. Today I'm sharing with you what NOT to do if you want to change your physique as well as what you SHOULD do, i.e. what works. Click these links to take my breathing course, Better Than Kegels™ or by The Castor Oil Crash Course™. Check out episodes 54 (glyphosate) 73 (prayer power for health), 75 (prolapse is depletion) or 89 (pelvic floor PT) for more GOLD!

Worshipping God, making Him number one and praising Him for all that He's done is Biblical, but how often we forget.
Tune in to hear about how an old hymn, a thundering battle and trusting the Lord even in your DM interactions on social media play into today's episode. The verses I read are 1 Samuel 7, Proverbs 3:6 and Psalm 66. For more from me head to sarahsmithstrength.com and dirtystrength.com
