You didn't plan for this. The midnight trips to the kitchen. The plate of food you don't remember finishing. Or the smell of dinner that sends you straight to another room because you can't bear it. After loss, something shifts in your relationship with food — and most grieving moms have no idea it's even happening.

This episode brings language to something you've been living but couldn't quite explain. Registered dietitian and faith-centered food freedom coach Brittany Braswell joins us to talk about what grief actually does to your body — and why the way you're eating (or not eating) right now makes complete sense.

In this episode, you'll discover...

✨ Why grief disconnects you from your body's natural hunger and fullness cues — and what that disconnect actually feels like from the inside

✨ The difference between physical cravings and emotional cravings, and why knowing which one you're feeling changes everything

✨ How restriction and overeating can both be grief responses — and why neither one means you're out of control

✨ A simple 15-second body scan practice you can do today to start finding your way back to yourself

You are not broken. You are a mom carrying the heaviest thing a human heart can hold — and your body is doing the best it can to survive it. God has not left you in this. He is present even here, even in this, even now.
