Have you battled your weight your whole life?   Are you sick and tired of losing and gaining the same 30, 40, even 60 pounds over and over again?   Do you wish there was a biblical solution to help you get unstuck?   Are you ready to find victory and freedom from food once and for all?   Far too many Christian women are stress-eating, doubting their self-worth, uncomfortable in their own skin, and feeling alone and worried that being overweight is something they will always battle.    They don’t believe in the identity of who God says they are or that victory is for them.   In this podcast, you will find biblical and healing solutions to set you free from the chains of emotional eating, obsessive thoughts around food, and the lies that have been keeping you stuck in the cycle of shame and hopelessness.    My mission is to equip you to lose weight fast while healing your relationship with food and restoring your identity in Christ. If you’re ready to redeem the time wasted on worldly solutions in exchange for biblical weapons for weight loss and a closer walk with God, then you’re in the right place!   Hey Beloved, I’m Heidi. A Jesus-loving wife, work-from-home mom, daughter of the king, and sister-Christian friend. I totally gave up during my 4th pregnancy after a lifelong battle with my weight. Years of effort, discipline, money, and energy went down the drain.    I was sick and tired of yo-yo dieting and the obsessive thoughts about food and my body image, and losing and gaining the same 40-60 pounds over and over. Shame didn’t care that I was pregnant four of those times. My body was morphing and there wasn’t anything I could do about it.   Having success only to gain it back throughout pregnancies or during stressful seasons of life had done a real number on my self-esteem and my confidence. I wasn’t taking risks in my business, I wasn’t living out my true calling and owning it, and I was stuck in relationships because I was being so protective with my heart.    After so many failed attempts and no motivation to try again, I was seriously doubting my ability to create lasting change in my life. I knew I would not be able to rely on my own strength and honestly, I didn’t even want to. I knew I couldn’t do it by myself.    BUT GOD.   He is my redeemer. He’s been recovering my heart, restoring my soul, renewing my health, and rebuilding my identity in Him. After years of giving up, He exchanged my sorrow for joy and freedom with food. I’m grateful to be able to share my experience and process of releasing almost 50lbs of excess weight with others so they too can journey with Him and access the blueprint He’s laid out before me.   If you’re ready to stop going through the motions and take your health and wellness next level…   Willing to let God transform your thinking, heal your wounded soul and unlock your true potential…   Ready to live a more fulfilled life... healthy, healed, and holy - then this is the podcast for you!   Dust off your Bible and grab that green smoothie as we heal your way to weight loss so you can get back to doing the things you love!   WORK WITH HEIDI CONNECT >>> [email protected] COMMUNITY >>> facebook.com/groups/biblicalweightlossblueprint LISTEN >>> iTunes: tinyurl.com/coveredbeloved WEBSITE >>> heidibramm.com ESSENTIAL OILS >>> bit.ly/oilsmadeeasyworkshop INNER HEALING >>> bit.ly/innerhearthealing GOD'S GIRLS CARDS >>> bit.ly/godsgirlscards   __________________     BOOK INNER HEART HEALING SESSIONS Have emotional hurts that aren’t yet healed?

Are you letting fear of failure or past mistakes hold you back from living in the fullness of what God has for you? Or maybe you feel stuck in a never-ending cycle of obsessive eating and body image?   Your weight is just a symptom, and to get to a place where you’re not fixating on food, are confident and comfortable, and your past is no longer impacting how you operate around food and emotionally respond to life’s stressors, you must be willing to allow Jesus into your healing process.     “Fear is designed to paralyze.

Do you struggle with showing up in your church community to escape your food fixation or being judged for avoiding the food that comes with it? The truth is that you’re missing out on all the other ways you can be supported or be encouraged by the grace of a community.    In this episode, Heidi explains how you can harness the grace of a community and find food freedom instead of isolating yourself when you’re struggling with food fixation. Listen in to learn the power of feeding the physically and spiritually hungry in your community to have God see your sacrifice and turn your food fixation outwards.    “As you immerse yourself in the word of God, He’s going to start transforming your view of food and your understanding and love for what He created food to be.” ~ Heidi Bramm    Top Takeaways: How social settings can trigger your food issues because everything in them revolves around food.  How studying the scriptures can help you ask God to see and understand His plan for food in your life.  Think of creative ways you can encourage a more holistic view of discipleship like feeding the hungry in your church community to avoid isolation.    What you will learn: The church approved sin – how we allow food to control and tempt us.  How human-modified foods with enhanced tastes become demonic because they hijack your command center and control over your actions.  How to have intentional conversations and connections instead of the food in a church community to make it safe.  Study the scriptures to form a biblical theology of food rather than what the world tells you about food.  Gather with your church to feed the hungry in your community. How to harness the grace of a community for support and encouragement when going through food problems.     Relevant Links: Full: Food, Jesus, and the Battle for Satisfaction by Asheritah Ciuciu Biblical Weight Loss Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/biblicalweightlossblueprint/   WORK WITH HEIDI CONNECT >>> [email protected] COMMUNITY >>> facebook.com/groups/coveredbeloved LISTEN >>> iTunes: tinyurl.com/coveredbeloved WEBSITE >>> heidibramm.com ESSENTIAL OILS >>> bit.ly/oilsmadeeasyworkshop INNER HEALING >>> bit.ly/innerhearthealing GOD'S GIRLS CARDS >>> bit.ly/godsgirlscards __________________     BOOK INNER HEART HEALING SESSIONS Have emotional hurts that aren’t yet healed?

Do you often feel the pressure to perform or to be perfect? Do you feel if you can’t do it all, you don’t do it at all? Perfectionism lies to you that you will never be free, or perfect but Jesus paid for ALL of your imperfections and He’s all you need to trust to walk in freedom and victory without being mastered by food thoughts.    In this episode, Heidi explains how perfectionism hijacks your food freedom journey and how Jesus can change that all for you. Listen in to learn the importance of waiting on the promises of God to change you and renew your strength.   “Because of Jesus’ spotless sacrifice for us, we’re free to pursue victory and victorious lives on our way to perfection and glory.” ~Heidi Bramm   Top Takeaways:  The imperfect progress – pursuing victory without being perfect because Jesus already sacrificed for us.  Learning how to shift into the expectancy of God’s promises to you by praying and believing.  Understanding that you have to let go of perfectionism and your food struggles for God to use you in His ways.    What you will learn: How your perfectionism is hijacking your journey towards food freedom and how you can allow Jesus to give you a fresh start without judgment. Freedom isn’t an immediate victory but a process between the slavery mindset and the promised land.    Humbly submit yourself and your problems to God with intention so He can help you.  Seek satisfaction in God alone and surrender your cravings to Him. Watch expectantly for God’s deliverance – hold on to His promises expectantly (H.O.P.E). Get back up by leaning into God’s strength and grace to receive His goodness if you relapse.  Recognize and confess your sins and failures quickly and ask Him to show you the truth. Celebrate your victories because your efforts impact generations and glorify God.  Trust that Jesus has already paid for your imperfections and trusting in Him will give you the needed freedom.    Relevant Links: Full: Food, Jesus, and the Battle for Satisfaction by Asheritah Ciuciu Biblical Weight Loss Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/biblicalweightlossblueprint/   WORK WITH HEIDI CONNECT >>> [email protected] COMMUNITY >>> facebook.com/groups/coveredbeloved LISTEN >>> iTunes: tinyurl.com/coveredbeloved WEBSITE >>> heidibramm.com ESSENTIAL OILS >>> bit.ly/oilsmadeeasyworkshop INNER HEALING >>> bit.ly/innerhearthealing GOD'S GIRLS CARDS >>> bit.ly/godsgirlscards __________________     BOOK INNER HEART HEALING SESSIONS Have emotional hurts that aren’t yet healed?
