She finally surrendered everything to God on a hilltop, and two weeks later, she was facing a cancer diagnosis with a peace that didn’t make sense. I sat down with Dayna Brooks to talk about what really changes when you move from knowing about God to actually surrendering to Him. We get into how that shift shows up in your health, identity, relationships, and leadership. If you’ve ever felt like something is missing in your faith, this conversation will hit close to home.

Dayna is the founder of Selah Grace and Selah Strength, boutique fitness and wellness studios built to support women in strength, restoration, and overall well-being. She shares how years as a stay-at-home mom left her feeling lost, and how fitness became the starting point for rebuilding her confidence and purpose. That personal journey turned into creating faith-led spaces where women can grow physically, mentally, and spiritually. Her leadership is grounded in intention, excellence, and staying aligned with God.

We also talk about what obedience can actually cost, including losing a large part of her business after bringing Jesus back to the center of it. Dayna opens up about walking through pruning seasons, trusting God when things don’t make sense, and staying faithful in the middle of it. You’ll hear how surrender prepared her for both the storm and the healing that followed. It’s an honest, grounded conversation that will challenge the way you think about trust, faith, and letting go.
