Still Becoming: Helping You Move From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be

Still Becoming: Helping You Move From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be Laura Acuña hosts the Still Becoming Podcast for women who are stuck with limiting beliefs about themselves, God, and their lives. Each episode encourages women to trade those limiting beliefs for the liberating truth from God’s Word. As a coach, Laura helps women move from where they are to where they want to be. New episodes air every other week on Tuesday. Welcome to Season Two! Season Two Description Many years ago, Laura Acuña felt God call her to speak to women of all ages and stages. Based on her own story and life lessons, Laura shares Biblical truth on becoming spiritually mature and emotionally healthy women. In the second season of the Still Becoming Podcast, episodes will cover trust, faith, living as a Christian woman in our current culture, relationships, resilience and the importance of applying God’s Word to our lives for growth and change. The goal and prayer for every episode is that listeners will leave with a deeper understanding of God’s Word, His great love for them and that it is never too late to become the healthy, whole and beautiful women He created them to be. Episode Ten: Walk in It: Shining the Light Along the Way, Part Six: Live it Out Key Scriptures: Ephesians 6:12 Ephesians 6:13-17 Matthew 26:57-58 Jeremiah 6:16a Isaiah 30:21 Psalm 75:3 Quote: Excerpt from an address to the Knights of Columbus: "To believe in traditional Christianity is something else. For the son of God to be born of a virgin? I mean, really. To believe that he rose from the dead and bodily ascended into heaven? How utterly ridiculous. To believe in miracles? Or that those who obey God will rise from the dead and those who do not will burn in hell? God assumed from the beginning that the wise of the world would view Christians as fools… And he has not been disappointed… If I have brought any message today it is this: have the courage to have your wisdom regarded as stupidity… Be fools for Christ. And have the courage to suffer the contempt of the sophisticated world." Antonin Scalia All the Links! Support the production of this podcast for as little as $5.00 by buying me a coffee!

Episode Nine: Walk in It: Shining the Light Along the Way, Part Five: Listen to the Women Who Have Come Before Us When most of us were growing up, society was generally favorable toward people of faith. Our beliefs and deep convictions did not draw controversy in the public square they do today. As a result of this culture shift, we can feel overwhelmed and disoriented as we try to walk the walk of faith in a culture that is increasingly hostile to followers of Jesus. We may be tempted to hide away with other Christians or lay low and avoid the conversation, but Jesus has commissioned us to be His light in the world.

We are all wounded people, whether physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually. The main question is not, 'How can we hide our wounds?' so we don't have to be embarrassed, but 'How can we put our woundedness in the service of others?' When our wounds cease to be a source of shame, and become a source of healing, we have become wounded healers.” - Henri Nouwen All the Links!

In fact, true peace is best detected and measured against the backdrop of commotion and confusion – when instability abounds, yet you remain steadfast; when disappointment and confusion are near, yet you’re still capable of walking with spirit-infused confidence, stability and steadiness.” Priscilla Shirer, The Armor of God "The Church’s mightiest influence is felt when she is different from the world in which she lives."

New episodes air every other week on Tuesday. Season One Season One Topic: Hope, Help and Healing for the Diet-Weary Soul. Season One Description Laura Acuña began life as a ‘skinny girl’ but gained 100 pounds in one year at the young age of 11. From that time on, she lived on the diet and body image roller coaster, which never led to permanent weight loss or freedom from the pain she was numbing with food. Instead, she picked up a lifetime of broken thinking about herself, her God, and what His definition of freedom truly means. Thankfully, over the past few years, Laura has been on the healing path. Season One is an open invitation for you to join her on the journey and to discover true freedom has nothing to do with a number on the scale. Episode Ten: What Really Matters: Aging, Beauty and Resolutions in the New Year An excerpt from today’s episode: "There is nothing wrong with setting health, fitness and wellness goals for the new year. There's nothing wrong with that. But what I am saying is that there are other areas in our lives that need attention too. When we make what we look like equal to our worth, everything gets out of whack. What this world needs is women who are aging gracefully, who are growing in wisdom, and who are passing that on to the women coming up behind them."

New episodes air every other week on Tuesday. Season One Season One Topic: Hope, Help and Healing for the Diet-Weary Soul. Season One Description Laura Acuña began life as a ‘skinny girl’ but gained 100 pounds in one year at the young age of 11. From that time on, she lived on the diet and body image roller coaster, which never led to permanent weight loss or freedom from the pain she was numbing with food. Instead, she picked up a lifetime of broken thinking about herself, her God, and what His definition of freedom truly means. Thankfully, over the past few years, Laura has been on the healing path. Season One is an open invitation for you to join her on the journey and to discover true freedom has nothing to do with a number on the scale. Episode Six: Growing Up and Moving Forward An excerpt from today’s episode: "A mature Christ follower knows if she's breathing, there is time to grow. The words, "This is just how I am" never leave her mouth. She gives herself plenty of room for becoming."

Season One: Episode Five: Silencing the Shame: Enough is Enough An excerpt from today’s episode: “We’re going to spend one more day on shame.

Season One: Episode Three: I Gave Up Hating My Body (and Learned to Twirl Again) An Excerpt from Today’s Episode: “For me to be free from disordered eating, I had to work with my body—not against it. I had to learn how to trust what it told me. We can’t hate our body into being healthy. We will not respect something we loathe, and we can’t love what we don’t trust. After decades of disconnection and disdain, trust seemed impossible, and love unthinkable. But nothing is impossible with God...” Key Scriptures: Psalm 139 ESV 2 Samuel 22:20 NIV Links: Pre-Order my new book: Still Becoming: Hope, Help and Healing for the Diet-Weary Soul here Let’s stick together!

Season One: Episode One: Welcome to the Journey An excerpt from today’s episode: “I was tired. I was weary. I was sick of it. I told God, “Lord, I would rather stay at the weight I am today than to keep losing and gaining it all back again. “I meant every word and syllable. It broke my heart to pray that prayer, but I was done. I’d been dieting for almost five decades. For the life of me, I couldn’t make my body cooperate with the scores and scores of diets I had attempted over all those long years. It went like this: I lost the weight. I gained it back. Shame piled on. Lose the weight. Gain, Shame. Repeat. Sound familiar? What if I told you there’s a better way?” Key Scriptures Proverbs 4:23 NCV Romans 10:11 NIV Matthew 11:28-30 MSG Links Pre-Order my new book: Still Becoming: Hope, Help and Healing for the Diet-Weary Soul here Let’s stick together!
