God, I'm Tired of Dieting | Interview with Brandice Lardner

Have you ever felt stuck on the diet roller coaster, bouncing between restriction, failure, and shame? In this episode, Barb is joined by personal trainer and nutrition coach Brandice Lardner, founder of Grace Filled Plate, to talk about food freedom, faith-based wellness, and breaking free from diet culture for good. Brandice shares her personal journey through dieting and disordered eating, and how it led her to create a compassionate, grace-filled approach to health that meets women's physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. They discuss why traditional diets fail, how all-or-nothing thinking keeps women stuck in cycles of restriction and shame, and what it looks like to build "fruitful habits" instead of chasing perfect eating. If you're tired of the diet roller coaster and ready for a sustainable, Christ-centered approach to healthy living, this conversation will give you practical tools — and real hope — for lasting change.   RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Connect with Brandice on Instagram Connect with Brandice on Facebook Fully Nourished: A Grace-Filled Approach to Ditch Diets and Find Peace with Food and Your Body Visit Brandice's Website   ABOUT OUR SPECIAL GUEST Brandice Lardner is a personal trainer, nutrition coach, and owner and author of Grace Filled Plate, which she founded in 2017.
