In this inspiring episode of The F.I.T. in Faith Podcast, host Tamra Andress sits down with special guest Kaela McKaig, an elite athlete, national champion, and personal trainer turned Christian mentor and life coach. Tamra expresses her excitement about learning from someone who truly understands coaching and applies it to her community. Kaela, the host of the podcast "His Word, My Walk," shares her journey from the fitness industry to becoming a devoted Christian mentor.


Together, Tamra and Kaela delve into the importance of defeating negative thoughts, overcoming self-focus, and embracing mentorship in deepening our relationship with God. They discuss Kaela's experiences as she stood under the guidance of notable mentors like TD Jakes from the Potter's House and how her faith in Jesus Christ has shaped her path.


The conversation takes an authentic turn as Tamra and Kaela open up about their own struggles and their initial lack of knowledge about God despite not being raised in Christian homes. Kaela shares her gradual awakening to the importance of growing in her faith and the pivotal role that fitness played in her ministry. Eventually, Kaela fully surrendered to God, redirecting her focus to mentoring and coaching women, realizing that her purpose extended beyond the fitness realm.


Throughout the episode, Tamra and Kaela emphasize the significance of faith in action and surrendering to God's will. They highlight the transformative power of sharing our testimonies and teaching others based on what God has taught us. Listeners are invited to join this meaningful conversation that restores the roar of faith, dispels misconceptions, and inspires a deeper connection with God.


About Kaela McKaig:

Hey! I’m Kaela. You might know me as the former Personal Trainer and fitness girl turned Christian Mentor & Life Coach - and Best Auntie Ever! Like so many other Believers, God’s journey to get me here has been… a journey. As a former elite athlete, National Champion and recent Hall of Fame inductee, it was the younger years of my life that fostered the drive and discipline in me to push, to work hard, and to create consistency toward growth in every area of my life. Training others in their health and fitness goals always with a foundation of a relationship with Christ, I eventually found myself earning a second degree from Arizona Christian University in all things Bible. Following God’s lead, I can now see the path. All the experiences, expertise, and education have led me right where He needed me in this season. I serve as a Christian Mentor & Life Coach. I am the host of the His Word My Walk podcast where I weekly share insight from my own life about how God’s Word and my daily walk go together. I am an author, teacher, speaker, and creator of the Bible Time Accelerator and Bible Journaling Bootcamp programs! My deep desire is to help others in their own relationship with God. I have a passion to uplift and encourage, to teach and to speak truth, God’s truth into every situation.

A Prayer When Comparison Roars in Your Heart - Your Daily Prayer - January 17

Comparison pumps me up or tears me down depending on who I’m comparing myself to, and I finally heard God whispering, “That’s enough, daughter. Let me reveal my truth.”
