About this episode
Have you ever thought, “It’s just too expensive to be healthy”? You’re not alone—and in this episode, we’re digging into that belief and what’s really holding us back from caring for our bodies well.
Jordan unpacks the common idea that health is only for the wealthy and shares why this mindset, while understandable, can actually keep us from making meaningful progress. Through biblical wisdom and practical examples, she encourages you to look at health as stewardship, not perfection, and shows how you can take small, faithful steps to care for your body without overspending or comparing yourself to others.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why health can feel financially out of reach (and how to reframe that mindset)
- The difference between expensive “extras” and everyday disciplines that cost nothing
- How Scripture, and even the Proverbs 31 woman, offers wisdom for stewarding our health
- Practical ways to pursue wellness within your means—without keeping up with the latest trends
- Encouragement to shift from comparison to faithful stewardship with what God has given you
