Revelation Within

1:1 Coaching with Christina

A safe place to find peace with food

“For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.” Romans 8:14

Grace-filled coaching for the woman who is tired of fighting food and her body. This is not a diet and it is not another plan to push through. It is a gentle, Spirit-led place to find peace with food, eating, and the body God gave you, one renewed thought at a time.

A friendly first call, with no pressure at all.

Maybe you can relate

What the food fight sounds like inside

“Why would God care about something as small as what I eat?”

“I keep telling Him I’m sorry, and then I go right back to the food.”

“I have tried every diet and every plan. Nothing touches what is really going on.”

“I don’t know what to do with my feelings, except eat.”

If you can relate, I want you to know something first. You are not a problem to be fixed. There is no condemnation here, only invitation.

I lived in that cycle for years. I went on diet after diet, saw a nutritionist, tried every workout plan, and carried a quiet angst no one could see. I believed that when I overate, God had stepped away from me. He had not. He was right there, and His love for me never changed. Nothing shifted until I learned to renew my mind. Then everything did.

What helped me most was not one more plan. It was someone walking beside me, reminding me that God is not in a hurry with me. That is what I want to offer you.

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”

Romans 8:1

Shame has never renewed a single thought. Grace does. Healing happens under safety, and in Christ you are safe.

Grace, not rules

What you can expect, and what you won’t find

Freedom is not chaos. Freedom is learning to live with God instead of under rules. That is the heart of every session.

What you’ll find

  • A safe, grace-soaked place to bring food, eating, and body image to God
  • Spirit-led coaching saturated in mind renewal tools
  • Companionship from a woman who has walked this road herself
  • Gentle work at the level of beliefs, not rules
  • Room to notice what God is already doing in you

What you won’t find

  • A diet, a meal plan, or a weight-loss program
  • A Christianized list of good and bad foods
  • Accountability calls or weigh-ins
  • Hype or pressure
  • Therapy, though it can work beautifully alongside it

Each week together

What a session with me looks like

Every session is shaped around what the Holy Spirit is bringing up in you that week.

• Settling in

We begin by simply being present. No agenda, no rushing in.

• Going underneath

Using the Revelation Within tools, we gently uncover the beliefs beneath the pattern and bring them into the light of Scripture.

• Looking back with grace

We notice what moved this week, rather than measuring what did not.

• Naming what shifted

Awareness comes before change. Naming it makes it real enough to carry into your week.

• Listening for the focus

We ask what the Holy Spirit is drawing forward today.

• Praying together

We close in prayer, and you leave encouraged, with a truth to carry into your week.

Working together one to one

How coaching with me works

We meet online over Zoom, from the comfort of your own quiet space.

  • Weekly Zoom sessions, one hour each.
  • We begin with one month together, then decide the next step from there.
  • Daily text support. Each morning I send a message with mind renewal, Scripture, encouragement, and support. You are welcome to send me your thoughts, insights, mind renewal, questions, and prayer requests any day.

Not sure where to begin? That is exactly what the first conversation is for. We will talk through what fits where you are right now.

In their own words

What God has done through coaching

A few of the women I walk with each week, sharing in their own words.

I have been coaching with Christina for about three years now and it has been more life changing than I can express!

I have been a Christian all of my life and have known the verses “The truth will set you free” and “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind,” and I have always wanted to tap into them. Because of this I was drawn to Revelation Within and other similar Christian programs for decades. I can’t even remember how many times I have read Thin Within, because I knew there were some big answers for me in there, but for some reason, I was unable to properly grasp them and allow them to help me. When I saw that Christina was offering coaching, I jumped in without hesitation. On our first call, her kindness and wisdom drew me in, and the fun we had together made me look forward to every visit. I desperately wanted the peace she had around food, but I quickly realized that this would cover all areas of my life! As the time passed and some very hard things came up, she taught me how to renew my mind in all situations, and the joy and peace I have found not only in those times, but in everyday things, like my eating, is something I never dreamed I could have.

If you are struggling to find peace with food, or ANY other area of your life, I can’t recommend coaching with Christina enough!

When you have struggled with something for so long, and wondered if you would ever break free, it is so amazing to have someone in your corner, to speak wisdom, encouragement and cheer you on. This is what coaching with Christina is like. Each week, we look together at ways that I can renew my mind, often in the areas that have been a particular challenge that week. We identify the lies believed and replace them with the truth of God’s Word. I have spent so many years doing diets and then watching the weight pile back on afterwards along with a large dollop of shame, but this coaching is so different. God is changing me from the inside out, setting me free and empowering me to live joyfully in today, instead of longing for tomorrow. I look forward to each session with such delight and hope, so grateful for time spent with someone who genuinely understands the battles, offers no judgment and pours out God’s love each week. Christina is a treasure and carries an anointing to coach, encourage and bring bucketfuls of hope. I cannot recommend coaching with Christina highly enough!

Rebecca · coaching client

Working with Christina as my one-on-one coach has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. She leads with genuine compassion, wisdom, and authenticity. Christina has been down the same path so she doesn’t just offer advice; she truly understands because she’s been there. Her insight is practical, encouraging, and grounded in real-life experience based on the principles of our Lord! What means the most to me is her deep love for the Lord. She consistently points me back to faith, hope, and God’s truth while offering encouragement and accountability. I’m so grateful for her guidance, her caring heart, and even her new friendship. If you are on the fence about doing coaching with Christina, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a coach who is both insightful and faith-filled.

More stories

Have you been wanting a companion, a guide, a friend to walk with you on your Revelation Within journey? One who will listen without judging or shaming you? One who has God’s wisdom beyond her years? One who will give clarity where needed, compassion where needed, insight where needed, and who will be “Jesus with skin on” in whatever way you need?

I cannot say emphatically enough that Christina is exactly who you want! She has been such an encouragement and blessing to me in countless ways during the three years we have been coaching! She is truly a lifeline to me, in not just food-related areas, but also in “hard stuff of life” ways.

If you are at all on the fence about getting a coach, maybe you’ve wanted to, but just weren’t sure if you were too much to handle, too hard a case, and that it would therefore be too embarrassing to have a coach who would know the inner you, I assure you that you have NO reason to let fear keep you on the fence! Christina handles your vulnerabilities with kid gloves!

Barb · coaching client

I started coaching with Christina in January of 2025 and since that time my mindset has changed in ways I never could have imagined! The verse in Romans 12 that talks about being transformed by the renewing of our minds has become my new testimony because of my work with Christina. I used to think thoughts without thinking and these thoughts would hijack anything good I was trying to do. Guilt and shame riddled my life whenever I ate when I wasn’t truly hungry. Christina has taught me more about grace than I ever knew existed. I remember texting her one morning after waking up with a food “hangover” due to a night of binge eating. She asked me what was true about what happened and what God says about what I did. Those questions put guilt and shame to rest and taught me how much the lies have been controlling me all these years. Christina continues to remind me that I am saved by grace and not by works. Any of my missteps are opportunities to learn about myself and about how much God loves me. Christina has been a true example of what it means for a person to be Christ-centered.

Carol · coaching client

Coaching with Christina has been life changing for me over the past few years. I always look forward to my time with her. The Lord has used Christina to help me navigate many difficult roads in my journey through praying for me, helping me renew my mind and always pointing me to the Lord. Christina has laughed with me, cried with me, and encouraged me to seek the truth in every season. Coaching has been so worth the investment and I would highly recommend it to everyone!

Julie · coaching client

I am thankful for the one on one coaching available through Revelation Within. God has transformed me through the mind renewal Christina has taught me. My thoughts toward food and adverse circumstances are becoming more like God’s thoughts. The mind renewal strategies given truly work! I have been blessed to release some weight during the process as well. I thank the Lord for this ministry.

Allison · coaching client

I’m decades old and spent the majority of it fighting my weight. I’ve lost significant amounts at various times and stages. This time it’s different. Revelation Within and coaching with Christina has been amazing! What’s the difference, you ask? This time I started with my mind. I found peace with who and why God made me first. In the past, I started with physical changes and my mind caught up. This time? I started with my mind. Christina guides me and supports me in all things. She directs me back to Him and what is true. Now my physical changes are following my mind. I’ve opened up my heart and mind to what is truly possible! God met me at my weakest and is bringing me out of the darkness.

Amy · coaching client

I began coaching with Christina four and a half years ago. I had known about Thin Within for many years and had followed the tools of hunger and satisfaction with no success. I believed that this was the only way for me to change a lifetime of overeating in response to emotions, however I was not able to stop with just the basic principles alone. After reading a very honest testimony from Heidi and joining a few online classes, I finally decided that I would give coaching a try. Christina was warm, and honest, and had so much understanding from her own journey, and with her encouragement and her daily messages, I began to renew my mind around my emotions and my eating. Renewing my mind with God’s truth was the piece that I had been missing. My responses to emotions began to slowly change. Over the next year and a half, I was able to release weight. More importantly than that, my relationship with God became closer, and renewing my mind began to spread into so many parts of my life.

Mine has not been, and is not, a perfect journey, and I find support, encouragement and deep friendship in our ongoing coaching relationship. All of our lives have challenges, and renewing our minds with God’s truth opens our hearts so that He can do the transforming work in us that He so longs to do. Coaching made the difference for me, and began a change in my relationship with God and in my heart that will continue for the rest of my life. I would encourage you to give it a try and see what God will do in your life.

Lori · coaching client

This community of like-minded people from Revelation Within has changed my life. I have been doing one on one coaching with Christina Motley since December of 2021. We’ve been through a lot together, including the loss of my only child James this past spring. The most prominent part is the growth that I have seen in my relationship with God. Not only have I seen the relationship towards food diminish, but I was able to stop binge eating (a stubborn stronghold of 43 years), and develop a much closer relationship to God through mind renewal. Yes! Mindset is KEY!

Taking the idol of food off of the throne of my heart and placing the Most High right where He belongs. Through coaching Christina has taught me how to deal with the chaos of this world, walking through it without running to food. I am now developing a much healthier relationship with food, putting it in its proper place, the way it was designed to be. I now have peace with food and Spirit-led eating.

One on one coaching is not for everyone, but if you desire a much closer relationship to the Father and you want the idol of food taken from your heart, Romans 12:2 gives us the answer. As we renew our mind, God transforms us. It’s not easy but doable. You can do this if you feel led. Give it a try; Christina and the Lord will meet you right where you are!

Wanda · coaching client

My Revelation Within journey started way back when this century was a baby and the program was called Thin Within. The first verse I remember reading in the Thin Within hardcover was Zephaniah 3:17: “Yahweh your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save. He will be joyful over you with gladness; He will be quiet in His love; He will rejoice over you with joyful singing.”

I returned to Thin Within in 2023 just when it was transforming into Revelation Within, and it wasn’t too long before Christina accepted me as a coaching participant. These three years have been great. I have gotten to know pretty well the nicest and most loving person in Christina. Since I have level-1 autism, a lot of people find me difficult and I can’t think of anyone else (other than Jesus) who would willingly spend an hour every week letting me share my life with them. She has consistently taught me mind renewal during our weekly calls as well as become a very dear friend at this point in my life. We have seen each other through some health crises and similar situations with our children. I’ve been in counseling several times as an adult, and though Christina is a coach not a therapist she has done far more for me mentally, emotionally, and definitely spiritually than anyone in that field ever has. My walk with Jesus is closer than ever at least in part due to Christina’s presence in it. I hope to meet her someday on earth and will definitely be looking for her one day in heaven. Shalom shalom, reader.

P.S. YHWH is helping me release weight at the age of 65 as a result of Mind Renewal and the Holy Spirit’s guidance through His servant, Christina. Thank you, Jesus!

Wondering if this is for you?

Coaching with me might be a good fit

Take your time with this. God is not in a hurry, and neither am I.

You might love this if

  • You love God and still feel stuck with food, eating, or how you see your body.
  • You are tired of diets that promise freedom and hand you more rules.
  • You want a friend in your corner, not a program to finish.
  • You are ready to look gently at the beliefs beneath the behavior.
  • You want your coaching to be Christ-centered and Scripture-rooted.

This may not be the right fit if

  • You are looking for a meal plan or a weight-loss program.
  • You want a quick fix or a formula.
  • You want someone to check your food log.
  • You are in a mental health or eating disorder crisis and need clinical care first.
Christina Motley

Your coach and friend

Meet Christina

I am Christina Motley, co-leader of Revelation Within alongside my dear friend Heidi. First and foremost, I am God’s beloved girl! I am a mom of three young adults and a retired elementary school teacher. My husband and I were high school sweethearts and have been married for 31 years. I have lived with chronic disease for 12 years and have just finished a year of intensive treatment for breast cancer. I love old houses, sunflowers, walking, e-biking, hiking, and sharing time with my family. I also have a big, sweet, fluffy golden doodle named Ella who is my constant companion!

For many years Heidi was my coach. It was not until I learned to renew my mind that anything changed, and then everything changed. I learned that God was never waiting with a clipboard. He cares about what brings us angst, and He wants to be part of it.

Now I get to sit with women in the very places I once felt hopeless, and watch the Spirit bring peace where there was only striving. Whenever I still struggle, I know exactly where to go. We are on this road together.

Let’s talk

Start with a friendly conversation

Our first call is simply a chance to get to know each other. We’ll talk about where you are with food and your body, what you have tried, and what you are hoping for. No pressure and no pitch.

Reach out to schedule

Pricing and details are shared on the call, so we can talk through what is right for you.

Questions women ask me

Before you reach out

No, though both have their place. If you are facing an eating disorder, trauma, or another clinical concern, a licensed professional is the wiser first step. Coaching walks with you in the everyday work of renewing your mind, and many women have both.

No. There are no food rules, no meal plans, and no weigh-ins. We invite the Holy Spirit into food and eating, and He leads each woman in her own way.

You are welcome here, wherever you are. Those choices are yours to make with your doctor. Our focus is peace with God in the middle of whatever you are doing.

Online, over Zoom, so you can join from wherever you are.

That is worth honoring. The first conversation costs nothing but a little time, and it often brings clarity about the timing.

Pricing and details are shared on the first call so we can talk about what fits where you are.

Send me a note

I would love to hear from you

Send a short note and share as much or as little as feels right. I read every note myself and respond within two to three business days.

There is nothing to prepare and nothing to have figured out. Showing up here is a beautiful first step.

Before you go

“The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you.”

Zephaniah 3:17

However you are feeling about food today, please hear this: you are God’s beloved girl, and He is so patient with you. When you’re ready, I would love to sit on the porch with you, even if it’s a virtual one.
