Vision Driven Health - Weight Loss for Christian Women, Biblical Health, Conquer Cravings, Kingdom Mindset, Increase Energy Naturally
Do you struggle with low energy and catch yourself reminiscing about when you were “young” and able to keep up? Are you overwhelmed by even having to THINK about what it’d take to lose weight? Do you mindlessly snack and give in to late night cravings? Are you bogged down by the shame that comes with knowing what to do, but not being able to get yourself to do it consistently? Do you feel like anything you try is bound to fail, so there’s no point in trying anyway? Friend, there’s HOPE! Hope to feel strong and confident in your body, to create consistency in your habits, to lose the weight, and to have clarity on how to partner with God to experience a healthy lifestyle that lasts! Hey, I’m Robin Rhine McDonald, a follower of Jesus, a wife, a mama of 2, and a seminarian turned health coach. And I am SO excited that you are here!! I found myself 20lbs heavier, struggling to keep my eyes open in the afternoons, with a face full of acne. I was confused as to how I ended up there, being that I worked out and felt like I ate fairly healthy. It seemed like no matter what I tried, I couldn’t create the results I wanted in a way that I could see myself maintaining long term. It wasn’t until I discovered the unlimited motivation and FREEDOM that exists in living according to God’s VISION for my life and health that I began to see changes. That is when I realized the most important thing to ever impact my life and health - If I wanted change, I had to partner with God! With God, I crafted a healthy lifestyle that led to ENERGY, healthy weight loss, and confidence in my body WITHOUT feeling overwhelmed or giving in to old patterns. 10 years and two kids later, by the GRACE OF GOD, I’m still prioritizing my health and feeling amazing. I’ve become gripped with the vision of seeing EVERY body that comprises the BODY of Christ healthy and well. In this podcast, I (and the guests I bring on) will show you how to: *Achieve the results you want and KEEP them *Implement simple healthy habits that you ENJOY that fit your busy schedule *Ditch the negative beliefs and lies that keep you from creating results that LAST *Take hold of Biblical health through truth and encouragement for healthy living *Learn what it means to have Kingdom health as a Christian woman *See the possibilities and opportunity of a healthy life in partnership with God *Make changes NOW that will set you up for energy and vitality later in life *Simplify cooking and preparing healthy meals and snacks for you and your family - that everyone LOVES *Learn which foods and meals increase energy and support healthy weight loss *Create endless motivation and drive for your health by aligning with God’s VISION for your life *Partner with God every step of the way! I mix my seminary education with my studies in integrative nutrition to help Jesus loving women, like YOU, develop the energy and vitality to live out their unique God-given calling! Go grab a giant water bottle and start sipping. It’s time to learn how to create the healthy lifestyle you’ve always wanted - with Jesus as the VISION that drives you. Hit play and listen on!

Hey friend!
Have you ever been SO sure that the way you see something is how it is? But then later you found out that you were TOTALLY off base?
I think it can be like that with our health.
We can feel SO discouraged and helpless.
We can be SO sure that we will end up with the same health struggles as our parents and family members.
But THEN we come to realize that there is HOPE and an option for our own journey.
In today's episode I am encouraging you BIG TIME to lean into God and get HIS perspective of your weight loss and health journey.
Be blessed!
Robin

If you've found yourself discouraged and hopeless with cravings and emotional eating, today's episode will to meet you where you're at and offer hope and tangible ways to climb your way out of it.
God cares deeply about what you're going through and He offers a path to experiencing His presence and peace when all we want is to skip cooking, go for the take out, and finish the night with a chocolate binge.
As a foodie and one who has used food to survive hard times, I speak from experience - with God, you can overcome!
I hope this blesses you!
Peace & Joy,
Robin

Hey Friend!
Welcome to the first episode of the Holy & Hungry series!! I want to take time each week SPECIFICALLY to get into some Scripture and get encouraged in healthy living.
I think the MOST powerful and transformative reality we have as followers of Jesus is that God CARES about your health and wants to be involved in the formation of your healthy habits.
This first episode is about how simple it really can be to experience positive change in your body.
We're taking a look at 2 Kings 5 as the basis for today's encouragement.
I pray it blesses you!
Happy Valentine's Day!
Hope & Joy,
Robin

Hey Friend!
After having a few friends point out to me how strange my dessert eating habits were, I realized I had to make an episode about it. Because the truth is, as a health coach who is big on balancing blood sugar and eating whole foods, I have dessert most nights and have maintained a healthy weight for over 10 years.
With Valentine's being this week, I know we're all facing a bit of chocolate temptation, so what better topic than how to manage sugar cravings and STILL enjoy some tasty treats?
Enjoy!!
Blessings & Health,
Robin

Hey Friend!
The season of pink and hearts is upon us. Everything is focused on love, romance, and rom com's.
In this day and age we also give a lot of focus to self love and self care. Today I am digging in to what it means to love yourself and take care of yourself as a follower of Jesus.
What is the biblical approach to self care and self love?
How does this connect with physical well being and healthy habits?
That's precisely what I'm covering today.
I hope it blesses you!
Health & Joy,
Robin
