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.   Join the waitlist for Lacy's Functional Health Lab: https://www.lacylainwellness.com/thelab Check out JuicePlus+ for yourself or Voxer me for more details (voxer username: sdaugh703): https://us.juiceplus.com/?partner=10632422

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.

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.
