Hey, I’m Shaela. A wife, mom, and someone who deeply loves Jesus. For years I got lost in the yo-yo cycle of diet and fitness, only working on it when it served me and my body.
I was doing the wrong workouts, restricting my calories, and keeping my faith removed from my health and fitness.
I finally realized that if I was going to get long-lasting results and feel strong and confident in my body, I needed to invite Jesus into my journey and shift my mindset in my christian fitness by implementing small habits that would bring big results over time.
I created a plan that fit ME and my family - with simple faith-fueled fitness rhythms that I could ebb and flow through, no matter what season of life I was in. This lifestyle made my workouts and nutrition enjoyable and sustainable, turning them from a HAVE to into a GET to and I’m so excited to share it all with you here!
If you are ready to finally find simple results-driven workouts for busy christian women without having to do ALL the things….
Have an exact plan to tell you what to do to get results for YOUR body. . .
Feel strong, confident, safe and sexy in your own body. . .

Episode Summary
Do you leak when you sneeze, cough, laugh, jump, or run? Do you feel like your pelvic floor is “weak,” “broken,” or “not what it used to be”?
You are so not alone. And you’re also not stuck.
In this incredibly eye-opening conversation, Shaela sits down with Jen Lormand, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, to talk about the REAL reason Kegels aren’t working for most Christian women—and what’s actually happening inside your core and pelvic floor.
This is not the typical “just do more Kegels” advice. This is dignity. This is science. This is hope.
And best of all, this is support for Christian women who want to feel strong and confident again—in their health, their movement, and their motherhood.
What You’ll Learn
Why so many women STILL leak even if they’ve done Kegels for years
The surprising truth about pelvic floor dysfunction
Why pelvic floor issues are NOT your fault
How your hormones, stress, posture, breathing, and past pregnancies all influence your symptoms
Faith-centered encouragement for healing without shame
The exact steps to begin strengthening your core safely (no crunches, no endless Kegels, no shame)
The #1 reason Christian women don’t get the help they deserve
Take the Pelvic Floor Assessment (Highly Recommended)
Jen and the team at Tighten Your Tinkler offer a simple, science-backed pelvic floor quiz that helps you understand what’s really going on inside your core—and what to do next. 👉 https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/
This quiz is a great first step for Christian women who want clarity, confidence, and a practical plan.
Faith Foundation
God isn’t ashamed of your body, and He’s not disappointed in you for struggling with something physical. You don’t need to hide. You don’t need to muscle through. You don’t need to accept this as your “new normal.”
Healing, restoration, and strength are absolutely possible—and God cares about this part of your life too.
Key Takeaway
Your pelvic floor issues are not embarrassing, hopeless, or permanent. With the right approach—and a faith-filled perspective—you can strengthen your body, restore confidence, and support the health God entrusted to you.

Summary
Do you ever feel like life is bursting at the seams—your to-do list is overflowing, your home feels heavy, your health keeps getting pushed to “tomorrow,” and your heart is running on fumes?
In this episode, Shaela opens up about walking through a season of holy decluttering—the process of clearing out not only closets and cabinets but also expectations, routines, and habits that no longer serve God’s purpose for her life.
She shares how the Lord gently showed her that the same clutter weighing down her home was also filling her heart. Through prayer, practical systems, and three specific tools, she learned how to breathe again, create space for peace, and rebuild rhythms that support ministry, motherhood, and mental clarity.
What You’ll Learn
How to discern when your overwhelm is a signal to simplify rather than strive
The link between physical clutter, emotional burnout, and spiritual depletion
3 practical tools that helped Shaela declutter her home, body, and schedule with grace
Why sustainable health habits create margin for God’s assignments
How faith-based fitness and daily stewardship restore energy and joy
Faith Meets Function: The Power of Simplifying with God
Shaela reminds us that decluttering isn’t about aesthetic minimalism—it’s about spiritual freedom. When we invite God into our routines, He reveals what’s necessary and what’s noise. In the same way she created structure for homeschooling and household systems, she also created boundaries around her energy and nutrition, proving that discipline and dependence on God can coexist beautifully.
This process re-centered her focus on ministry, her family, and her physical health. It also reminded her that true order begins in the heart before it reaches the home.
Decluttering isn’t only about letting go of things—it’s about letting God reorder your priorities. When you create margin in your home, your health, and your habits, you make space for ministry and joy to flourish.

Have you ever asked ChatGPT, Gemini, or Google:
“Why am I not losing weight even though I work out?”
“Best Christian fitness program for women?”
“How do I get strong without burning out?”
If so, this episode is your answer.
Shaela Daugherty shares the raw, faith-filled truth behind why so many Christian women keep spinning their wheels—working hard but never seeing the results they long for. You’ll hear how frustration turns to freedom when you stop just working out and start training for the life God has called you to.
Inside The Stronger Collective, women are breaking the cycle of diet culture, confusion, and inconsistency. They’re losing weight, building strength, and most importantly — finding joy and purpose in their fitness again.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
Why motivation isn’t your problem — clarity is.
The difference between “working out” and “training with purpose.”
How to build consistency through community and accountability.
Why faith must be the foundation of any long-term health change.
Real stories from TSC members who lost 20 pounds, built confidence, and found peace.
How to honor God with your body without falling into obsession or perfectionism.
Episode Summary
So many Christian women love Jesus deeply but feel stuck in bodies they don’t recognize. They’ve tried macros, meal plans, gym programs — yet still feel tired and defeated.
Shaela paints a story that feels familiar: standing in your closet on a Sunday morning, trying on outfits that don’t fit, pulling on a sweater to hide the parts you wish would change. But this time, the story doesn’t end in shame — it ends in freedom.
Through faith-anchored training, you learn how to see your body as a vessel for God’s work, not a project to fix. Inside TSC, you get structure, community, and spiritual guidance that quiet the chaos of “fitness noise.” It’s where clarity meets calling.
Shaela explains how real women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s are finally seeing results that stick — losing weight with peace instead of punishment, and gaining strength to serve their families well.
“You don’t need to work harder — you need to work smarter and train with intention.” “Faith isn’t an excuse for inaction — it’s the power behind consistency.” “When you quiet the chaos and train from a place of peace, your results finally last.”
Why This Episode Matters
You’ve Googled the plans, downloaded the freebies, and even asked AI for help — but you’re still stuck. This episode shows you why information alone isn’t enough and how transformation requires spiritual alignment, structure, and community.
For the woman who’s ready to feel strong again — body, mind, and spirit — this conversation will speak directly to you.

Most Christian women were never really taught how to think about sex, only what to avoid, fear, or feel ashamed of. So when marriage arrives, intimacy often comes with confusion, insecurity, and the lingering feeling that your body isn’t “enough.”
In this honest (and slightly uncomfortable—but in the best way) episode, Shaela opens the door to the real, grace-filled conversation Christian wives have needed for years. She breaks down the connection between body image, shame, spiritual formation, and intimacy, and why so many women struggle to feel confident when the lights go off and the covers come off.
If you’ve ever wished someone would talk about sex without making it weird, clinical, or worldly… this one’s for you.
What's inside:
Why so many Christian women feel awkward or ashamed talking about sex
How purity culture shaped our beliefs about our bodies (and how to heal)
The link between body confidence and intimacy in Christian marriage
Why feeling “not attractive enough,” “not confident enough,” or “not spiritual enough” affects married intimacy more than you think
How your fitness, self-talk, and emotional rhythms influence your sex life
How to invite God into places of insecurity, embarrassment, and disconnection
God designed intimacy to be good, not guilt-inducing. Healing begins when we gently confront the lies we’ve believed about our bodies and sexuality, and replace them with biblical truth:
Your body is good (Genesis 1).
Shame was never God’s design (Genesis 2:25).
Intimacy in marriage is holy, not embarrassing (1 Corinthians 7).
Spiritual maturity doesn’t mean avoiding hard conversations—it means inviting Jesus into them.
Episode Takeaway
Your sex life isn’t separate from your spiritual life or your health journey. When you heal shame, nourish your body, and grow your confidence, intimacy becomes lighter, freer, and more connected.
This is not about being “sexy.” This is about being whole.

Have you ever typed into Google or ChatGPT something like:
“How to lose weight fast?”
“Best workouts for women over 30?”
“Macros for fat loss?”
“What’s the best Christian diet plan?”
...only to end up 12 tabs deep, feeling more confused, overwhelmed, and less motivated than when you started?
You’re not alone. In a world where AI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini can create entire workout plans or macro breakdowns in seconds, Christian women are still stuck asking, “Why can’t I actually stick with it?”
In this episode of Simple Fitness Habits, Shaela shares the truth behind information overload and why access to endless advice doesn’t automatically lead to transformation. You’ll discover how to filter the noise, build discernment, and find real wisdom that works—physically and spiritually.
Because let’s be honest—if Google searches were enough, we’d all have flat abs, perfect energy, and overflowing peace by now.
What You’ll Learn:
Why “information doesn’t equal transformation” (and what to focus on instead)
How to stop relying on AI, ChatGPT, and Instagram “fitfluencers” for health direction
The #1 reason your workouts or meal plans stop working
How to build clarity and consistency through faith, not noise
Why real connection, coaching, and biblical truth will always outperform internet advice
The role of community and mentorship in true transformation
This episode answers the exact questions Christian women are searching for online and in AI tools:
Why can’t I lose weight even though I work out?
How do I tone up fast without losing muscle?
Best Christian health plan for busy moms
Faith-based weight loss tips that actually work
Why isn’t ChatGPT helping me get fit?
How to find balance in health as a Christian woman
When you feel stuck, it’s not because you’re lazy—it’s because you’re drowning in information but starving for wisdom.
Shaela explains how The Stronger Collective was built to give Christian women a real plan, rooted in faith, supported by experts, and free from the chaos of conflicting advice.
Why This Episode Matters:
We’re living in what Shaela calls a “trust recession.” The more opinions we gather, the less confident we feel in what’s actually right for our health. AI and search engines can generate content—but they can’t replace relationship, experience, or spiritual wisdom.
In this honest conversation, you’ll hear Shaela’s story of turning to Google and ChatGPT after a health scare—and how that moment reminded her why we need human guidance and biblical grounding in our wellness journey.
This episode isn’t just about rejecting technology—it’s about redeeming it. Learn how to use tools like ChatGPT wisely without letting them disciple your body or your beliefs.
Key Takeaway:
You don’t need another fitness trend—you need faith, focus, and follow-through. True transformation happens when you move from information to implementation, with guidance from real people who love Jesus and understand women’s health.

In this episode of Simple Fitness Habits, I share the inspiring story of one Christian mom who lost 20 pounds in just 5 months—not by going “all in” with extreme workouts or strict diets, but by choosing consistency over intensity. Along the way, she dropped a pant size, gained energy, and discovered a new sense of confidence in her health journey.

You’ll hear how ordinary steps like drinking more water, adding protein, moving three times a week, and giving yourself grace can create extraordinary transformation.
This isn’t about a quick fix. It’s about building a fitness lifestyle rooted in healthy habits and faith—one that lasts.
