Paige Clingenpeel is joined by Leah Fruth—Live Well Health Coach, fitness instructor, and writer—for an honest conversation about motherhood, grief, and whole-person health. Leah shares how losing her mom while helping care for siblings and raising a young son deeply impacted her physical and emotional well-being. Together, they explore the biblical call to steward our bodies as a gift from God and why valuing ourselves is a spiritual issue, not a selfish one. They also discuss how unforgiveness can weigh heavily on the body and why surrendering our health to God matters. This episode offers simple, practical steps for slowing down, breathing, and caring for your body with intention. It’s a meaningful reminder that honoring our bodies is one way we honor our Creator.

Paige’s Takeaways:

• Being a good steward of our bodies is one way we communicate to God that we value His creation. Caring for our physical, emotional, and spiritual health honors the life He has entrusted to us and reflects gratitude for the body He designed.
• Unforgiveness carries a real heaviness in our bodies. It often shows up as stress, tension, or emotional exhaustion. Forgiveness is not about excusing wrongdoing, minimizing pain, or always reconciling—it’s about releasing the burden of justice into God’s hands and freeing ourselves from carrying what was never meant to be ours.
• Boundaries are incredibly powerful. Saying no can be difficult, especially when we want to please others, but healthy boundaries are a clear sign of stewardship and emotional health. They protect our energy, reduce unnecessary stress, and create space for what God has truly called us to say yes to.

How do we talk to our children about sexuality without fear, shame, or confusion? Paige Clingenpeel sits down with Elizabeth Urbanowicz—author, speaker, experienced educator, and founder of Foundation Worldview—for an in-depth conversation on teaching children biblical sexuality in a culture saturated with unbiblical messages. Together, they explore how parents can address sexual purity without creating guilt, navigate difficult topics like pornography and masturbation, prepare children for the pervasive LGBTQ+ messaging they encounter, and how to respond when you and your spouse aren’t aligned on these conversations. This is an essential message every parent needs to hear.
