The Worthy Now Podcast

This conversation with Sadie Beth Eby felt especially honest and close to home 🤍 We talked about loneliness- the kind that isn’t always obvious, but quietly impacts your thoughts, your relationships, and even your sense of purpose. Sadie Beth shared what that season looked like for her, how it affected her emotionally, and the moment she realized something needed to change. We also talked about: ✨ What loneliness can actually look and feel like. ✨ The ways it can spill into other areas of life. ✨ Taking the first step toward connection. ✨ The people, habits, and rhythms that helped her feel less alone. This episode is a reminder that even in seasons where you feel unseen or disconnected… you’re not as alone as you think. If you’re walking through loneliness right now, we hope this conversation feels like a deep breath and a gentle reminder that connection, healing, and hope are possible.

Our co-hosts sit down with Tasia Lancaster, influencer that helps women break free from dieting & body shame so they can live free, nourished, & at peace through Faith-based support.  We talked with Tasia Lancaster about her journey from competitive gymnastics to CrossFit and how being in environments where your body is constantly on display can deeply shape the way you see yourself, your worth, and your relationship with food and exercise. We got honest about: ✨ Body image and disordered eating (both internal and external struggles). ✨ The subtle ways “wellness” and “fitness” culture can become harmful. ✨ How control, fear, and insecurity can hide behind things that look “healthy”. ✨ What it looks like to move your body from freedom instead of punishment And most importantly- how faith changes everything. Tasia shared about finding true freedom, healing, and identity, not in performance or appearance, but in who God says we are. We also got to hear the heart behind her Wonderfully Made program and the real breakthroughs she’s seeing in women walking through it. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle with your body, this episode is for you. There is hope, healing, and a different way forward. We’re so expectant for what this one will do in your heart! 🤍  

Our co-hosts sit down with Dr. Ghalysa Swann-White, staff counselor at Lee University's Counseling Center, to discuss healthy boundaries.  We dove into what healthy boundaries actually look like and why they matter so much for your emotional and mental well-being. From recognizing when your boundaries are being crossed, to understanding why so many of us struggle to set them in the first place- this conversation gets real in the best way. We also talked about: ✨ Setting boundaries without guilt. ✨ How boundaries look different in every relationship. ✨ The connection between self-esteem and boundaries. ✨ Healing from environments where boundaries weren’t respected. If you’ve ever felt stretched too thin, unsure how to say no, or guilty for protecting your peace, then this episode is for you.

Kirby Kelly is a speaker, author, and Christian content creator based in Dallas, Texas, with a Master’s in Theology from Dallas Baptist University. She shares messages on faith, identity, and mental health through her platforms and her podcast, Bought + Beloved. Through her powerful testimony and ministry, she encourages young women to find freedom, healing, and their identity in Christ. We talked about what it really looks like to hold onto hope when life feels heavy- when prayers seem unanswered, doubt creeps in, and you’re walking through seasons you never expected. And still… God meets us right there. This episode is a reminder that He is the same faithful God of Scripture- steady, present, and working even in the middle of it all. Her heart behind The Fabric of Hope comes from that very place, and you’ll get to hear pieces of that story in this conversation. The book releases April 7th.
