Can your workout routine help feed starving children? When fitness instructor Stephanie Van Allan felt God's call during COVID lockdown, she created The Fitness Mission - where every view provides therapeutic food packets to malnourished kids worldwide. Vivian explores practical ways to build sustainable fitness habits, and Stephanie shares how faith, family, and exercise merge to transform lives. Together they discuss the power of starting small, embracing imperfection, and turning daily movement into an act of worship that nourishes both body and soul while making a global impact.

POWERFUL QUOTE FROM STEPHANIE
"I want a Christ-centered focus to our workout. Like, the world tells us so much to be looking at body image and fad diets – and if we keep our focus on Christ throughout our workout, it’s gonna redirect everything. When you put the focus on Christ, it takes it off of you.”
