#22-Why Fasting Changed My Mindset, Fitness, and Relationship With Food

In this episode of the BTT Podcast, Bishop sits down with Flowmenez to talk about the power of fasting, discipline, fitness, mental clarity, and spiritual growth. Flow shares how fasting became a major part of his journey, not just for health or weight loss, but for building self-control, staying focused, strengthening his faith, and creating a stronger mindset. The conversation dives into different types of fasting, including 16-hour fasting, 24-hour fasting, 72-hour fasting, and 7-day water fasts, along with the importance of easing into fasting safely, drinking water, setting clear intentions, and being mindful of what you eat before and after a fast. They also discuss how fasting can help people break unhealthy food habits, reduce dependence on sugar and processed foods, improve discipline, and create space for deeper reflection. Bishop and Flow also connect fasting to fitness, strength training, body image, motivation, business discipline, spiritual purpose, and personal growth. They talk about using the gym as an outlet during hard seasons, how fasting can challenge your relationship with food, and why learning to say no can help you become more focused in every area of life. This episode is for anyone interested in intermittent fasting, water fasting, mental clarity, fitness motivation, spiritual fasting, discipline, self-control, and building a healthier mindset.
