Episode 25:Donna's story: She’s 64 and Just Now Healing Her Relationship with Food

I need you to hear this. 

During one of our Thursday night Temple Keeper Community coaching calls, Donna, a 64-year-old woman in our group, asked if she could share something. What came out of her mouth stopped all of us in our tracks. 

She’s spent her whole life tying her worth to how she looked. 

She’s been stuck in the same cycle for decades: binge eating, shame, dieting, repeat, even as a Christian. 

But that night, something broke. She shared her heart. She told us the real battle she’s been fighting since childhood. And everyone, including me, was in tears. 

This isn’t just about food. It’s about identity. About pain. About healing. 

And I know she’s not the only one. 

If you’ve ever used food for comfort…
 If you’ve ever tried to earn your worth by shrinking yourself…
 If you’ve ever thought “It’s too late for me”…
 You need to hear Donna’s story. 

I jump in at the end with practical truth, biblical encouragement, and the reminder that this is not your identity. And it’s not too late.  

🧠 Key Takeaways: 

• Emotional eating is usually a learned behavior — and it’s not your fault.
• If it didn’t cause it, it can’t solve it.
• Healing starts when we stop rooting our identity in our struggle.
• Christ is the one who comforts — not food, not your body, not your performance.
• You are not broken. You are being made new.
• God will use your story to help others when you let Him rewrite it.
