In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Olivia Hill, founder of Liv Hill Nutrition, to explore the often-overlooked connection between physical health and spiritual effectiveness. Olivia shares her remarkable journey—from an unstable childhood to discovering Apostolic truth, from reaching nearly 300 pounds to losing 150 pounds naturally, and from corporate banking to leading a rapidly growing Apostolic health coaching company.

She breaks down how poor health can quietly hinder your ministry, how burnout is often biological rather than spiritual, and why simple, consistent habits can unlock your capacity to serve God with joy. Olivia also explains why Apostolic voices are needed in the wellness space, how her team integrates nutrition, prayer, mindset work, and even therapy, and what one practical step anyone can take today to start stewarding their body better.

This episode is rich with hope, relatable struggles, practical wisdom, and God-shaped purpose. If you’ve ever felt tired, stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to improve your health, this conversation will strengthen your faith and give you a realistic path forward.


10 Key Takeaways

  1. Health and ministry are deeply connected. When your body is run down, your capacity to serve, worship, and lead is diminished.
  2. Weight loss alone isn’t the goal—healthy stewardship is. Your body is a tool God wants to use.
  3. Small, consistent habits beat “all-or-nothing” mindsets every time. Think consistency over intensity.
  4. Nutrition affects spiritual rhythms. Better energy means better worship, better focus, and better recovery.
  5. Apostolics need safe spaces to discuss health. Shame or stigma often keeps churches silent on wellness.
  6. Your emotional and spiritual health impacts your eating. Many patterns began as coping mechanisms.
  7. God walks with us through every transformation. Olivia’s daily prayer-closet moments were key to breakthrough.
  8. Burnout is often physical, not just spiritual. Fatigue, inflammation, and poor nutrition make recovery difficult.
  9. You can start right where you are. Begin with baselines—steps, protein, sleep—and grow slowly.
  10. There is hope. Feeling better is possible no matter your starting point.

Final Thought

At the heart of Olivia’s story is a simple but challenging truth: God cares about every part of you. We often separate the physical from the spiritual, but as Olivia reminds us, the two are deeply connected. When we steward our health, we’re creating space for God to use us more fully.

You don’t need to overhaul your life overnight. You don’t need to run an ultramarathon or meal-prep like a professional athlete. You just need to start where you are, take one small step, and trust that God walks with you in the process.

Because when you feel better, you serve better.
And when you serve better, the Kingdom is strengthened.

So today, choose one habit. One change. One step of stewardship.
Your future self, and the ministry God has placed in your hands, will thank you..
