Graced Health: Perimenopause and Menopause Wellness for Christian Women
Want to feel strong and well in your body — without the diet culture pressure? The Graced Health podcast is for Christ-centered women in perimenopause and menopause who want to feel capable, grounded, and at peace in their bodies — without all the noise.
Here you'll find practical, grace-filled guidance on strength training, nutrition, body image, and wellness — all rooted in faith and free from diet culture. No shame. No comparison. Just clarity, encouragement, and a voice of reason.
I'm Amy Connell, a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach who grew up in diet culture doing step aerobics in a thong leotard.
God called me into Graced Health after showing me there's a more peaceful, less obsessive way to care for my body — so I can do what He's called me to do.
New episodes drop every week, covering everything from strength training and menopause to intuitive eating and body stewardship — all through a grace-centered lens.
