Description

As female Christian leaders, we often pour ourselves out for others—our teams, our families, our communities—until there’s nothing left. But what if God is inviting us to see our leadership through the lens of stewardship... starting with our physical health?


In this powerful and faith-filled episode, I'm joined by Dr. Phyllis Hayes-Reams, a physician and passionate advocate for women's health.



Together, they explore what it truly means to honor your body as God’s temple and why your physical well-being is deeply connected to your leadership effectiveness.


In this episode, we talk about:


  • What the Bible says about stewarding our physical health




  • How burnout affects Christian women in leadership roles




  • The link between physical neglect and spiritual disconnection




  • The importance of rest, rhythm, and routine for sustainable leadership




  • Practical steps to care for your body without guilt or overwhelm




Whether you're a school leader, ministry director, or business owner, this conversation will encourage you to prioritize your health, not just as a wellness goal but as an act of obedience and worship.
