Are you uncertain with your  food choices or unhappy with your body? Is it possible to truly be at peace with food and your body? If you’re not comfortable with your body, this will spill over into your marriage. Gaining a biblical perspective with this will help you heal your relationship with your body and food choices, and in turn, your marriage.    Today we are delighted to have Brittany Braswell joining us to tackle these personal and often painful topics, and share hope, help, and Biblical perspective on these topics. Brittany is a Registered Dietician, Christian speaker and host of the Joy-Filled Eater Podcast, and a wealth of wisdom and encouragement on navigating these challenging topics.     We pray this episode is helpful for you and your marriage.  Episode highlights include:   What does Scripture actually say about body image?  How our view of our body impacts our marriage Brittany’s 1st priority for her clients’ nutrition – this might surprise you!

You don’t have to meet a certain criteria to deserve some support.”  -  Brittany Braswell  “We can eat in a way that helps our bodies to thrive so that our bodies don’t become the thing that holds us back from fulfilling the calling and purpose God has placed on our lives.” -  Brittany Braswell   QUESTIONS FOR YOU If it’s hard for you to believe it when your spouse says they are attracted to you, dig a little deeper: Why is it hard to believe?     MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:  For more wisdom on these topics, listen to Brittany’s podcast, The Joy Filled Eater Here’s the episode on gluttony she mentioned in today’s conversation with Dr. Kim  Find Free Resources as well as coaching, courses & community on Brittanys’ website BrittanyBraswellRD.com  Facebook Support Group: Food Freedom and Body Image Support for Christian Women  Follow her on Instagram
