75 episodes - English - Latest episode: 21 days ago - ★★★★★ - 2 ratings

Welcome to the Faithfully Fit Motherhood podcast! 

I'm your host, Jess Kohlman, and I love talking about faith, fitness, motherhood, and everything in between! 

I have had my fair share of struggles physically (depriving myself and hindering my metabolism) and mentally (postpartum depression after my first baby). 

My spiritual health has brought me through some of my darkest moments, and led me to pursuing my certification in Personal Training, as well as Nutrition Coaching, so that I can help other women going through their own struggles on their health journeys!

Things get pretty deep around here, so if that kind of conversation interests you, you've come to the right place! 

Thank you for being part of this community! 

I'm cheering you on! 

XO Jess

For a Successful Fat Loss Phase: Getting Your Body to a Place of Balance After Years of Dieting

November 17, 2023 05:00 - 21 minutes - 15.1 MB

Science says less calories in; more calories out. While it's true, that may not be true for YOU. Restrictive eating can lead to imbalances in our hormones and gut health, which only leads to more chaos internally because our hormones and guts communicate with other critical systems that make our body feel happy and safe.
