The Holiday Season is Here: Let’s Make It Holy and Healthy!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year—but let’s be real. The holidays can leave us feeling stressed, overbooked, and far from healthy. Between endless to-do lists and indulgences that derail our goals, it’s easy to lose sight of the true reason for the season.

But what if this year could be different? Imagine embracing a calm, Christ-centered holiday that nourishes your heart, strengthens your body, and refreshes your spirit with God’s peace.

In this episode, I’m sharing 9 simple and powerful ways to trade the holiday hustle for holy rest. Together, we’ll shift our focus from the world’s chaos to His presence—and find joy in a healthier, holier season.

A Holiday Shift: From Stress to Peace in His Presence

I stared at my holiday to-do list, already feeling its weight pressing down on me. Every year, I vowed to...

 Welcome back to the Strong. Confident. His. Podcast, I'm Kim Dolan Leto!

This episode has been on my heart for a long time. I had a different episode planned, but I woke up this morning and felt God telling me that today was the day to share this.

Right from the start, let me say I used to practice yoga—this isn’t a judgmental or legalistic message. If you're a Christian practicing yoga, I understand; I was there too! My journey with yoga started innocently, as a simple way to exercise, find peace, and relieve stress. But over time, I experienced a realization that completely changed my perspective. God revealed a truth to me that I couldn’t ignore, ultimately leading me to walk away from yoga. I want to share my story out of love and a desire to spread the truth.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we’re exposing a fitness trap that so many Christian women fall into. Let’s start with a story that may sound all too familiar.

The Enemy’s Trap

You find yourself caught in a cycle, working out harder and harder, eating less, and pushing your body to exhaustion. You believe this is the way to look and feel better, but it’s a vicious cycle. Your constant restriction is making you lose muscle, and intense workouts are driving up cortisol, leaving you drained, weaker, and prone to storing more body fat instead of losing it. Each calorie you cut and cardio session only digs you deeper into the trap the world has sold you—that punishing your body is the only way to achieve strength and confidence. But it’s a lie, a snare designed to weaken, not strengthen you.

The enemy loves this trap, keeping you obsessed with appearances, empty promises, and never-ending pursuits of worldly standards. But the...

Do You Believe You Can Reach Your Goals?

What if the reason you're stuck isn't your body, but your beliefs?  The words we speak to ourselves matter more than we think. Jesus said, “According to your faith be it unto you.” It’s time to challenge the lies we tell ourselves and start living out the truth!

You know, so often in our fitness journey, we want things to happen right now. Whether it's weight loss, muscle gain, or just feeling more confident in our bodies—we set these timelines for ourselves. We say things like, 'I’ll be at my goal weight by this date,' or 'I’m going to work out every day this month,' but what happens when those timelines don’t line up with reality?
