Welcome to Episode 89 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!
This week, Kim welcomes back Laura Heflin, a Christian wife, mom, holistic nutritionist, podcaster, and three-time published author. Laura shares her mission to inspire others and create change in our health-challenged culture by embracing balance, authenticity, and self-love.
Together, Kim and Laura discuss the impact of perfectionism on midlife women and the power of consistency in building a life rooted in peace and sustainability.
Laura introduces her personal journey of breaking free from the exhausting pursuit of perfection and shares her transformative “Power of 10” approach—starting with just 10 minutes of movement, self-care, or preparation to create momentum and lasting habits.
Faith and rest are central themes throughout the conversation, as Laura and Kim highlight the importance of setting boundaries, taking inventory of commitments, and tuning into one’s unique needs.
Laura emphasizes the value of operating from a place of self-love rather than self-criticism, reminding listeners that true health and happiness come from aligning with one’s values and embracing imperfection.
Key Highlights and Takeaways:
Break Free from Perfectionism: Striving for perfection can leave us stuck. Embracing imperfection allows for grace, rest, and consistency.
Momentum Over Motivation: Action, no matter how small, leads to momentum and eventually motivation.
Rest and Rejuvenation: Rest isn’t optional—it’s a necessity. Take time to recharge and listen to your body.
Sustainable Habits: Ask, “Can I do this for the rest of my life?” to ensure goals are achievable and realistic.
Self-Love is Essential: Approach health and fitness from a place of love, not criticism or punishment.

Discover What My Clients Are Saying
The most significant thing that changed in my work with you was that my all consuming, soul-killing obsession with food was relieved through gentle healing and integration. I knew in my heart that you really cared about me and had my best interests at heart which helped me to re-connect with my own ability to love and support myself. When that part felt back in balance I think the food piece also re-balanced itself. Another incredible gift you offer is a super well resourced tool box! There was also plenty of deep diving into core wounding and reviewing old stories, all of which you skillfully guided me though and helped me to integrate in order to heal.
Thank you so much for everything.

Kim taught me to listen to my body. I now can slow down and find out what I really need…which is not always food. I also learned it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. I struggled with dieting and then overeating. I have found a happy place where I can just be. She also taught me so much about food, reading labels and how good real food can be. Thank you.

My reason for hiring Kim is different as I already knew how to eat healthy and was already in great shape. I wanted to learn more about digestion and overall gut health which is super important for all aspects of life. She is amazing! Very easy to talk too and she made me feel very comfortable and I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me. She is very nice and definitely very knowledgeable! She was able to help me in every way I needed and then some! Anyone who needs any form of help that she offers because she is top notch and well worth the money and time!Could not be happier with the decision I made to hire her as my coach!
K. C.
I feel an enthusiasm for embracing routines and habits that encompass not only my body, but spirit and mind. Kim is a beautiful, genuine person who is intuitive and kind.
Her support and positive perspective always turn around my attitude and help me see the favorable aspect to decisions I’ve made in a non-judgemental way.
Access to this type of reassurance is perpetual and brings peace of mind. Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives. Kim has been instrumental in bringing me home to my truest self.
