Becoming Natural is your faith-filled refuge for healing—from the inside out.
Hosted by Penny, an occupational therapist, former pharmaceutical rep, Integrative Health Practitioner, and Crohn’s warrior, this podcast is for women seeking clarity, calm, and Christ-centered wholeness. Whether you’re battling chronic stress, hormone imbalance, fatigue, inflammation, or simply the pressure to "do it all," you’re not alone—and you’re not broken.
Each episode blends science-backed health tips, gentle natural remedies, Biblical wisdom, and honest storytelling to help you simplify your wellness, reclaim your rhythm, and reconnect with the God-designed power of nature and light.
We explore:
🧠 Practical tools for restoring your nervous system
☀️ Ancient remedies like sunlight, vinegar, breath, and stillness
🙏🏻 Christ-centered mindset shifts that renew your heart and body
🧺 Simplifying home, diet, and self-care to fit real life
❤️🩹 Hope for the healing journey—without shame or hustle
🪴You’ll hear research, reflections, and real-life stories with warmth, humility, and grace.
This isn’t another podcast that shouts “do more.” It’s a permission slip to do less—and become more rooted in who you truly are. Because the more we return to the natural design, the more we discover healing is already within reach.
💛 Whether you're curled up with tea, driving carpool, or walking in the morning light—join Penny each week for encouragement, education, and sacred reminders that your healing matters.
Come as you are, friend. Let’s walk this healing path together—one breath, one sunrise, one episode at a time.
