Cynthia thinks that this may be her favorite interview with Dr. Ioana so far. They go deep into beliefs as one of the seven levels of freedom. Dr. Ioana shares about her atheist background in communist Romania and their commonly held belief about Christians. Just because you believe something… it doesn’t mean it’s so.  She made the decision to believe there is a God, and He let her know right away that it was true. What are you believing right now that is not true but is affecting your day, your life, your happiness… your salvation?   Dr. Ioana is the co-founder of the Team For The Soul TM. Team for The SoulTM  supports passionate leaders, healers, educators and caregivers on their life and soul journey to achieve the highest potential while doing what they love toward the betterment of humanity. Dr. Ioana is not only a physician and life coach, but also an educator, workshop presenter, speaker and program developer. As a life coach Dr. Ioana walks alongside her clients to bring a steadfast hope that change is possible, no matter how difficult. With dedication, skill, professionalism, and warmth, she brings a calm, safe, compassionate and grounded presence, and creates a nurturing relationship in which every person feels heard, seen, understood and can pursue change toward achieving their highest potential in life. <a href= "http://www.teamforthesoul.com">www.teamforthesoul.com</a>

EP 201 - Dr Ioana Popa - The Seven Levels of Freedom and Empowerment in God

God created our bodies to thrive on certain foods, and scripture tells us what these foods are. We have been given a manual so to speak on how to be good stewards… the problem is, our food supply has been tampered with, and is very different from what it was in the old testament.  Today join Cynthia as she speaks with Maureen Diaz from God’s Good Table.  A former homesteader with 9 children, Maureen has great knowledge and resources that we can all use. After watching family struggle with health issues and dealing with her own, Maureen knew there were answers beyond the advice conventional medicine gave.  She set out on a journey to learn and study traditional healing and cooking from every book she could get her hands on and every holistic practitioner she could find. She has been sharing what she has learned with her family, friends, and community for over 30 years!  Maureen has a passion for teaching, cooking, kayaking, showing immense love for all the people who join her at the kitchen table, and being an amazing wife and mother to 9 children.   <a href= "http://www.godsgoodtable.com">www.Godsgoodtable.com</a> <a href= "https://www.godsgoodtable.com/god-given-food-polyface-2023">https://www.​godsgoodtable.com/god-given-​food-polyface-2023</a>
