Lori Morris - Midwife - Christian Women's Health Coach, Hermitage, TN (2025)

11/18/2025

Feeling pressure to be induced just because it’s Thanksgiving… or Christmas… or because your provider wants to “get things done before the holiday”? Mama, your birth is not meant to fit neatly into someone else’s calendar.
In this republished episode from 2024, Lori Morris, CNM, unpacks the truth behind “holiday inductions”—why they’re almost never medically necessary, how to recognize convenience-based pressure, and how to confidently stand firm in God’s timing and your body’s design.
In this episode, you’ll learn:✔ What’s actually evidence-based when it comes to induction✔ Why holiday schedules should not determine your birth decisions✔ How to discern a true medical indication vs. convenience✔ The real risks that come with unnecessary induction✔ How to advocate for yourself with clarity and confidence✔ Encouragement for trusting God’s wisdom in your pregnancy
Whether this is your first baby or your fifth, this conversation will help you feel informed, grounded, and empowered to make decisions aligned with your body and God’s design.

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things—eating healthy, exercising, praying, and staying consistent—yet your body still isn’t responding? You’re not broken, and you’re not failing. Sometimes your body doesn’t need more effort… it needs safety.
In this episode, Lori Morris, Certified Nurse-Midwife and Christian wellness coach, shares why even the most disciplined routines can fall flat when your nervous system is in survival mode. You’ll learn how stress, isolation, and striving can block your healing—and how to finally work with your body, not against it.
✨ Inside, you’ll discover:

Why your body resists healing even when you’re doing everything “right”

How nervous system safety impacts your hormones, metabolism, and energy

The missing piece in most health plans: peace and connection

How to reconnect your physical and spiritual health through God’s design

Plus, Lori shares a special invitation to join the Verity Village waitlist (sign up at https://www.morriswellnessservices.com/villagewaiting), her Christ-centered wellness community for women ready to heal in truth and community.
🎧 Listen now and learn how to heal in rhythm with God’s design.

SHOW NOTES:
Loneliness isn’t “just in your head.” It raises stress hormones, weakens the immune system, disrupts sleep, and can even impact heart health and metabolism. Scripture already told us: it’s not good for man to be alone. In this episode, Lori explains how community shapes physical healing, why isolation harms the body, and how science (e.g., Roseto studies, Mind Over Medicine) and Scripture agree.
You’ll hear:

What loneliness does to your biology
Why real healing happens in connection
The difference between belonging and “fitting in”

Asking questions about your body, your birth, or your health care isn’t rebellion.
It’s wisdom. ✝️

God never asked us to follow blindly — He asked us to seek truth.

You are allowed to ask questions about your health.
About your birth plan. About your medical care.

Asking questions doesn’t make you “anti-science” — it makes you a woman who wants to honor God with wisdom and discernment.

Because science and Scripture both point to truth… and truth can always withstand your questions. 🌿

If you’ve been praying for wisdom about your health, this might be your next step.
Apply to work with me 1:1 and let’s uncover what your body needs to heal — through Scripture, science, and stewardship. 🌿

SHOW NOTES:
Are you afraid to ask questions about health, birth, or medicine because you don’t want to sound “anti-science”? God never asked us to follow blindly—He asked us to seek wisdom. In this Christian wellness podcast, If Mama Ain’t Healthy (Ain’t Nobody Healthy), Lori Morris, CNM, helps you bridge faith and science with biblical discernment so you can stand firm in truth.
God never asked us to follow blindly. He asked us to seek wisdom. Proverbs tells us, “The discerning heart seeks knowledge.” In this episode, Lori explores why asking questions about health, birth, or medicine isn’t rebellion—it’s obedience. Real science invites questions. Real faith requires them. Journey back to 2020 and unpack how fear and confusion reshaped our trust in “science.” Learn how to discern truth through God’s Word, filter information wisely, and stand firm in faith even when the world calls you “anti-science.”
You’ll discover:
✨ The difference between science and scientism
📖 The biblical case for asking questions
🙏 Three steps to discern truth with peace and clarity
💡 How to bridge faith and science without compromising either
Stay until the end for:
✨an exciting announcement about Verity Village — Lori’s upcoming Christ-centered wellness community designed to help women heal together through truth, grace, and connection. Because when both faith and science are rooted in truth, they’re never at odds.

Cod Liver Oil: Overcoming the Yuck Factor

I bought a bottle of cod liver oil a few years ago that I just sat and looked at it. It sat in my refrigerator forever until I finally threw it away. ‘cause I was pretty sure it was no good anymore because I was scared of what it was gonna taste like. I never even tried it. So I, I don’t know, six months or so ago, got a bottle of Nordic Naturals, which is what I recommend, which you’ll find on my full script account.

And tasted it and I actually like it. The consistency’s a little different, but I’ve gotten used to it. And I’ll say it, I get the lemon flavor and it reminds me of lemon cake batter, which if you didn’t have my grandmother, which you didn’t, ‘cause I’m an only grandchild.

They balance blood sugar, boost your circadian rhythm, and help you get those 8–10k steps without stress.

It’s not about burning calories — it’s about living in rhythm with how God designed your body. ✝️

You should be getting your nutrition from real food, and this is not gonna be any surprise to you. If you’ve been listening to me for any length of time, you know that your nutrition should be coming from real whole foods. That’s always going to be your best source. God made your body to use nutrients from food, not from pills.
