In this episode of the Eternal Echoes podcast, host Katharine Rose speaks with Laura Acuña, a life coach, speaker, and author of the book, “Still Becoming: Hope, Help, and Healing for the Diet-Weary Soul.”

For 50 years, Laura struggled with disordered eating and body image issues, living the cycle of shame and defeat. Laura shares how the Lord set her free, enabling her to walk in the fullness of who He created her to be. She emphasizes the importance of grace, the power of renewing your mind, and the significance of aligning your identity with God’s truth.

Laura also encourages women, especially those in their later years, to recognize their value and purpose and to engage with younger women looking for connection and mentorship.

Wise words worth echoing:

-“The Lord puts us through a process. If we were healed in a minute, we'd forget Him in a second.”

-“You don't have wait to be healed for God to tell you how much He loves you and how proud He is of you.”

-“The moment you put your toe on the healing path, He's right there to confirm and say, ‘Go girl, keep going daughter, I love you, you're wonderful, keep going.’”

-“The voice of shame is not God’s voice.”

-“Older women need to engage in the lives of younger women so that we know what's going on.”
