Description
In this episode of Becoming to Being with Angelina Watkins, Angelina interviews April Griffith who helps high achieving Christian women lose 20 or more pounds, love their bodies and live...
show moreApril is very passionate about her walk with God and depends on him 100% when it comes to her spiritual and fitness journey. It all began when April had a traumatic experience at the age of 12 years old, which followed her into her teen and adult years. This traumatic experience was being called big by a guy she had a crush on, this hindered her for years, all she kept doing is replaying it over and over in her head. It wasn't really until April accepted Christ and allowed God to begin to peel back the layers of her identity and see who she really was in Christ.
God began to speak to April about her temple and how the budget gourmet meals in the freezer were not the best thing for her body because her body is the temple of the living God. This is where her wellness journey, the health journey, the salvation journey, came about because she believed that salvation encompasses good health. April shares with her clients all the time that you don't just want to lose weight, you want to transform, because if you just lose weight, and you don't transform, you're going to go back to that same person that you were before by stress eating and being insecure.
April has a holistic program that encompasses three main things: mindset, diet, and activity exercise.
