Living Faithfully Fit with Tracy Balderach

Transitions can be exciting, beautiful, prayed for... and still leave you wondering why your emotions feel all over the place.After weeks of preparing to launch my oldest daughter to college, moving her in, coming home, going back for sorority recruitment and finally saying goodbye, everything got quiet. And that's when the transition really started to hit me.Maybe you're not dropping a child at college. Maybe you're starting a new job, moving, sending a child into middle school, launching a graduate into adulthood or simply realizing that a season of your life is changing.This episode is for the woman standing somewhere between what was and what's next.We're looking at a moment between Jesus and His mother, Mary, that has me thinking differently about what happens when our roles change and God asks us to move forward instead of trying to hold onto what has been.Scripture for this episode | Matthew 12:46–50“While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, ‘Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.’ He replied to him, ‘Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?’ Pointing to his disciples, he said, ‘Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.’”💻 Have you ever wondered if you could build an income from social media?Maybe you're in a transition yourself and part of what you're thinking about is what's next for you.I've spent years building businesses through social media, and today I'm mentoring women who want to create an additional stream of income by sharing products they already use and love.You do not need a huge following or years of experience. But you do need to be willing to learn, show up consistently and get into conversations with people.If you've been curious about the affiliate opportunity I'm building with MAKE Wellness and want to learn more about what it could look like for you, I'd love to share the details with you.Learn more about my business mentorship here:www.tracybalderach.com/businessmentorshipIf you're in the middle of a transition right now and trying to make sense of all the emotions that come with it, press play.

What happens when the little girl who loved Jesus slowly walks away from everything she once believed?In this week's episode, I'm joined by Caitlin Kendrick Conwill, and her story is one I haven't been able to stop thinking about.Caitlin grew up as a pastor's daughter. She loved the Lord, wanted to do everything right, and spent much of her childhood feeling like she never quite fit in.Then she left for college.What she experienced there challenged everything she believed about faith, people, and acceptance. Over time, she drifted farther from God, became agnostic, and built a life that looked incredibly successful from the outside.She was traveling with a band, performing in front of thousands, thriving professionally, and chasing the life she had always dreamed of.Until it all came crashing down.In this conversation, Caitlin shares how alcohol slowly took control of her life, what led her to rehab, and the unexpected way God began pursuing her again.If you've ever wrestled with church hurt, perfectionism, shame, or wondered if you've wandered too far from God, I think this conversation will encourage you.Connect with CaitlinCaitlin Conwill, MBA, CHAA is an healthcare consultant and business owner from North Mississippi who advocates for quality improvement within the behavioral health and substance abuse treatment communities she serves. Her career, and life, took a turn when she discovered God’s grace and purpose through her journey of recovery from alcohol and drug abuse. She continues to share her testimony and use her personal experience to help others in their walk through early recovery.

Have you ever wondered if your struggle somehow disappointed God?Maybe you've wrestled with depression, anxiety, or simply felt like you weren't measuring up as a Christian. Instead of running to Jesus, you found yourself pulling away because you thought you needed to get better first.This week, I'm joined by wellness educator, speaker, and coach Charlé Barkey for one of the most honest conversations we've had on the podcast. Charlé vulnerably shares how God met her in one of the darkest seasons of her life and gently reminded her that shame never gets the final say.As our conversation unfolds, we talk about what it means to steward the bodies God has given us, create space to hear His voice, and trust that He is always inviting us back into relationship with Him.One of my favorite moments in the episode came from Genesis 9:3:"Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything." (Genesis 9:3)It's a beautiful reminder that from the very beginning, God cared about how we nourish and care for the bodies He entrusted to us. Stewardship isn't about perfection—it's about honoring Him with what He's given us.If you've ever questioned God's heart toward you because of your struggle, I pray this conversation reminds you that He isn't waiting for you to have it all together.He's simply asking you to come.Connect with CharléWebsite:www.curatedbycharle.comInstagram:www.instagram.com/curatedbycharledoTERRA:https://referral.doterra.me/13161234Free Resource: The Quiet That Changes Everythinghttps://canva.link/79os0s0njfdz1jvConnect with MeWebsite:www.tracybalderach.comInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/faithfullyfittracyPodcast Newsletter:www.tracybalderach.com/podcastIf this episode encouraged you, would you take a moment to leave a review or share it with a friend?
