Fit and Fueled by Faith is a faith and wellness podcast for women over 40 who want to feel strong, energized, and rooted in faith. Hosted by Stacey Ziegler, NASM-CPT, Certified Holistic Health and Life Coach.

Midlife brings its own unique set of questions, especially about health and purpose. Fit and Fueled by Faith | Faith & Wellness for Women 40+ sits right in that space, offering conversations that go far beyond diet tips or workout routines. Host Stacey Ziegler brings her perspective as a certified personal trainer and holistic health coach, but more importantly, she approaches wellness as an integrated journey. Here, physical strength and sustainable habits are discussed alongside spiritual nourishment, with the understanding that caring for your body is also a way of honoring your faith. This podcast recognizes that for women navigating this season, energy, strength, and a sense of rootedness are deeply connected goals. You’ll hear practical, grace-filled discussions on creating routines that actually last, managing the shifts that come with age, and cultivating a resilient mindset. Stacey’s belief that true strength is sourced from a foundation in Christ informs each episode, making this a unique blend of tangible advice and spiritual encouragement. It’s for any woman who is tired of quick fixes and is looking for a compassionate, faith-centered companion to walk with her toward holistic well-being. Tune in for honest talks that address the whole self-body, mind, and soul-in a way that feels both supportive and actionable.
