Her Holistic Healing: Faith-Fueled Answers for the Exhausted Christian Woman

TOP 1.5% PODCAST (global ranking)

Are you a Christian woman exhausted by chronic fatigue, autoimmune disease, gut issues, or symptoms that conventional medicine keeps dismissing?

I'm Alexandra — a Registered Nurse who spent years inside the pharmaceutical industry, close enough to see how broken the system really is. Then I got sick myself and had to find a different way. God opened my eyes to a completely different way of seeing health — one that honors the body He designed, the faith He gave me, and the life He called me to live.

Her Holistic Healing is the podcast for the faith-driven woman who is done letting conventional medicine be her only option. Each week we explore why your symptoms are never just physical — diving into the whole picture of body, mind, spirit, relationships, and environment — with practical wisdom, biblical truth, and the clinical perspective of a nurse who has seen both sides.

This isn't about quick fixes or remedy lists. It's about helping you finally see what's actually draining your energy and peace — so you can move forward with wisdom, not overwhelm.

If you're ready to stop surviving and start healing the way God designed you to — you're in the right place.

    214: Exhausted and Stuck? Ask God for Eyes to See What Your Health Needs
    2026/10/21
    Have you ever felt like the answer to your health struggles is right in front of you, but you just can’t see it? In this episode, we talk about why we stay stuck in our health and our lives, and how asking God for ears to hear and eyes to see can change the way you approach your next step. You’ll learn how your brain filters information, why pride, culture, and comfortable routines can blind us to what God is showing us, and how believing lies about your health can keep you exhausted and stuck. This episode is for the Christian woman who is tired of guessing, ready to stop waiting, and willing to take real steps toward better health with God at the center. How Your Brain Decides What You Notice Picture yourself walking into a busy restaurant with 30 people talking at once. If the room is small enough, you could technically hear every conversation. But you don’t. Your brain filters out the noise so you can focus on the person sitting across from you. That’s a gift from God. The reticular activating system helps us pay attention to what we’ve told our brain matters. The problem is that we are so skilled at filtering that we tune out information that’s actually important for us. If we’ve never noticed something before, we assume it doesn’t matter. So we miss it, even when it’s right in front of us. Reading the Bible with Fresh Eyes We do the same thing with Scripture. We read through familiar lenses and skip over what doesn’t fit our understanding. In 1 Samuel 28, King Saul is desperate. God has stopped answering him, so he turns to a medium and asks her to bring up the prophet Samuel. After years of church and reading the whole Bible more than once, I had never noticed this passage. Scripture is full of passages that challenge us and don’t fit neatly into a box. When we only focus on what feels comfortable, we can miss what God wants to show us. Why We Can’t See What’s Right in Front of Us As a hospice RN, I recently cared for a patient taking around 30 medications. When patients enroll in hospice, the doctor reviews their medications and may recommend stopping some of them. This patient chose to keep all of them, which was her right. From a clinical standpoint, some of those medications likely weren’t helping, and some may have been making things worse. But many of us have been taught to assume that every prescription is helping, and we don't give this idea a second thought. Your doctor is not the enemy. But blind spots are real, and they can come from: Cultural conditioning about health and medicinePride, or the belief that we’re not missing anythingLong-held habits we’ve never questionedFear that change won’t work Jesus Said "Follow Me." He didn't say, "Stay Comfortable." After a lot of change in my own life over the past two years, I’ve been craving routine. Routine feels safe. But Jesus never said, “Follow me and nothing will change.” He wants us to follow Him but he didn't promise that it would be easy. Sometimes we hold on to routines that are harming us, draining us, or keeping us too busy to heal. Our lives may look fine from the outside while God is quietly asking us to make a change in our health or our habits. God gives us a choice. But obedience brings freedom, and holding on to what isn’t working only hurts us. We may worry that change won’t work. Maybe it won’t work the way we expect, but God is in charge of the outcome. The Lies That Keep Us Sick Sometimes we can’t hear or see clearly because we’ve believed a lie. In my book, Discover God’s Health Wisdom, I talk about eight health myths that keep women sick. Here are a few: If a treatment didn’t harm someone else, it won’t harm me.To get rid of my symptoms, I only need to focus on my physical body.My body is inherently broken, and nothing can be done about it. None of these are true. We can believe lies about our marriages, our kids, and our finances, too. That’s why we need to keep going back to God and His Word for wisdom. Asking God for Ears to Hear and Eyes to See In Matthew 13:15-17, Jesus describes people whose hearts have grown dull, who have closed their eyes and barely hear. Then He says the eyes and ears of His disciples are blessed because they see and hear. Faith-based health starts here. Before we look for the next protocol, we can ask God to soften our hearts and open our eyes. And what God shows you isn’t only for you. It can bless your family, your friends, and your community. Key Takeaways Your brain naturally filters information, which means important things about your health can go unnoticed.Cultural conditioning, pride, and comfort can keep you from seeing what God is showing you.Health decisions are worth understanding, including the ones you’ve never questioned. Talk openly with your healthcare provider.Following Jesus may require stepping out of routines that no longer serve you.Lies about your body can keep you stuck. Compare what ...

  • 213: Exhausted and Stuck in Complaining Mode? How Gratitude Brings Back Joy and Hope

    213: Exhausted and Stuck in Complaining Mode? How Gratitude Brings Back Joy and Hope
    2026/10/07
    Complaining is easy. It feels relatable, it bonds us with other women, and most of the time we don't even notice we're doing it. But Scripture calls believers to something different: rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and give thanks in all circumstances. In this episode, we look at what the Bible says about joy, suffering, and offering God a sacrifice of praise. We also talk about practical ways to retrain your mind toward gratitude, because thankfulness is a habit we build, not a feeling we wait for. This episode is for Christian women who are ready to take real steps toward healing in body, mind, and spirit. Whether you're living with exhaustion, autoimmune disease, or simply a heavy season, this conversation is an invitation to look at your circumstances through a different lens. God's Will for You: Rejoice, Pray, Give Thanks 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 is clear. God wants us to give thanks in all circumstances, not only the good ones. That includes the seasons when we're tired, unsure, or hurting. Gratitude isn't denial. It's a choice to see God at work even when life feels hard. Why Suffering Can Lead to Hope Romans 5:3-5 begins with words many of us want to skip: rejoice in our sufferings. For years, I stopped reading right there. Who wants to rejoice in suffering? But the verse keeps going. Suffering produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces hope. Think about someone who has had everything handed to them. Endurance and character usually don't grow in easy places. If we want lasting hope, sometimes the path runs through difficulty. What Is a Sacrifice of Praise? Hebrews 13:15 calls us to continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God. In the Greek Old Testament, this same phrase is used for the thanksgiving offering in Leviticus 7:12, known in Hebrew as the todah. That means gratitude is worship. It's not just a nice feeling. Praise is called a sacrifice because we won't always want to give it, and we offer it anyway. What the Israelites Teach Us About Perspective The Israelites were delivered from slavery, led through the sea, fed with manna from heaven, and promised a land flowing with milk and honey. Still, they complained again and again. Their situation could be seen two ways: They were exhausted, tired of the same food, and unsure of the futureThey had witnessed miracle after miracle and were being led by God Himself toward a promised land They chose fear and complaint. But before we judge them, it's worth asking how often we do the same thing. Why Complaining Spreads So Easily Sitting in a group of women recently, I watched one complaint turn into three. This isn't about judging anyone. It's about noticing a pattern most of us fall into. Complaining can feel like connection. But should we really be bonding over what's wrong? Negativity tends to breed more negativity, and it keeps us stuck in a cycle that steals our peace. Pastor Colin Smith once described discontentment as a hellish sin, and that phrase has stayed with me for years. When we live in discontentment and envy, we end up tormenting ourselves. Even Satan fell because what he had wasn't enough for him. How to Train Your Brain Toward Gratitude Thankfulness can be practiced. Here are simple ways to start: Write down 5 to 10 things you're grateful for each morning, each evening, or bothWhen negative thoughts start to spiral, thank God out loud for specific blessings until your focus shiftsUse worship music to turn your attention back to who God isNotice when conversations drift into complaining, and gently steer them somewhere better This is part of a whole-person approach to Christian wellness. What we dwell on shapes how we feel, how we respond, and how we walk through hard seasons. Fullness of Joy Is Found in His Presence Psalm 16:11 tells us that in God's presence there is fullness of joy. Not in money, perfect health, a perfect marriage, perfect kids, or the perfect house. Only in Him. Being thankful doesn't mean pretending everything is fine. You can be completely honest with God about your pain. And then, in the middle of it, you can still choose to praise Him. Key Takeaways Giving thanks in all circumstances is God's will for believers, not a suggestionSuffering is never wasted when it builds endurance, character, and hopePraise is an act of worshipComplaining often feels like connection, but it keeps us stuck in negativityGratitude is a habit that can be trained through daily, intentional practiceHonesty with God and praise to God can exist side by sideTrue joy comes from God's presence, not from perfect circumstances Take a moment this week to reflect: Where have you slipped into complaining mode? What would it look like to offer a sacrifice of praise right there? Ready for Your Next Step?

  • 212: Feeling Isolated Is Hurting More Than Your Mood — Here's What It's Doing to Your Body

    212: Feeling Isolated Is Hurting More Than Your Mood — Here's What It's Doing to Your Body
    2026/09/24
    If you've been feeling exhausted, isolated, or like you're managing your health alone, this episode is for you. We're talking about a factor that rarely comes up in conversations about Christian wellness and holistic health: loneliness. Not just how it feels, but what it actually does to your body. Chances are, if you're here, you're dealing with exhaustion, autoimmune symptoms, or you're simply trying to get a handle on your health. What I want you to see today is that your relationships are part of that picture. Not a nice extra. Part of it. Why Loneliness Belongs in the Health Conversation I've noticed something in my own life. When I'm not connected to people, my thinking gets more twisted. I become more fearful, more paranoid. Shame creeps in. Envy creeps in. I laugh less. I smile less. And when we isolate ourselves, we stop growing, because we lose access to perspectives we'd never come up with on our own. I saw this firsthand recently at a mom's group through my kids' homeschool co-op. We were reading a book on motherhood, and it opened up a conversation about how culture views children versus how the Bible describes them, as a blessing. Some women referenced in the book admitted they'd felt scammed by motherhood, like the joy they were promised didn't show up. Others pointed out how even the church can slip into treating children as a nuisance instead of a gift. But then other moms spoke up with a perspective I hadn't considered. Moms raising kids with special needs, moms with no financial support, moms who've been doing this alone for decades. One woman shared a story about a mother in her seventies still caring for her adult child with special needs. Another talked about how difficult it is to find a church that actually welcomes families like hers. I was grateful for that conversation, because without it, I wouldn't have heart that perspective. That's what isolation costs us. Not just comfort, but understanding. What the Research Actually Shows There's a meta-analytic review called Social Relationships and Mortality Risk that looked at this directly. That review found something striking: your relationships shape your risk of death about as much as smoking or drinking does, and even more than lack of exercise or obesity. Let that sink in for a second. Possibly the real effect is even larger than reported, since many of the studies included in that review used simple, single-item measures of isolation rather than deeper measurement tools. This isn't something we talk about enough, in healthcare or in the church. When I'm taking a patient's history, loneliness rarely comes up unless there's abuse involved. But it should be part of the conversation, especially with our kids, who often treat screen time as an equal substitute for face-to-face connection. It's not the same thing. When Busy Life Hides Loneliness Here's something worth sitting with: you can be married, have kids, be surrounded by people all day, and still be lonely. The last couple of years have been heavy for a lot of us. Job losses. Deaths. I work in hospice, so I'm around death regularly right now. Life gets busy, tiring, emotionally draining, and survival mode becomes the norm. At that first mom's group meeting, we did a kind of speed-dating exercise, just answering questions and rotating to meet more women. Nothing emotional was being discussed, but I found myself on the verge of tears. I realized how lonely I'd actually been. Getting that connection back felt like healing. Sometimes we've been isolated for so long that it just feels normal, until we get a taste of what was missing. A Simple Next Step If you're working on your health right now, whether that's exhaustion, autoimmune symptoms, or something else, I'd encourage you to also work on your relationships. Set up a coffee date. Join a women's group at your church. If your church doesn't have one, find one somewhere else. Your social relationships carry real weight for your health, right alongside diet, sleep, and stress. Key Takeaways Loneliness is not just an emotional issue. It has a measurable, physical impact on your health and mortality risk.Research shows social relationships influence mortality on a level comparable to smoking and alcohol use, and beyond inactivity and obesity.Isolation can quietly become "normal," especially during seasons of grief, job loss, or overwhelm.Exposure to different perspectives, especially from people outside your immediate circle, builds compassion and wisdom.Healing often starts with a small, concrete step: reaching out to one person, joining one group, setting up one conversation.As you pursue whole-body health, treat your relationships as part of that pursuit, not separate from it.
