28| Grief, Heartbreak & Emotional Eating -The #1 Tool to Use When Life Is Hard
In this deeply compassionate and faith-anchored episode, Tiffany Marie Lindsey speaks directly to the high-achieving Christian woman navigating grief, heartbreak, emotional eating, and the quiet unraveling that happens when life feels heavier than her body can hold.
If you’ve been saying “I’m fine,” while feeling emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, and frustrated with your weight and cravings—this episode speaks directly to the places you’re afraid to admit are hurting.
You’ll learn how grief shows up in the body, how emotional eating becomes a survival response, and how God meets you exactly where your heart is breaking. This conversation is a soft but powerful interruption to the guilt, shame, and self-blame you’ve been carrying.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE
✨ 1. How grief quietly hijacks your nervous system
You’ll learn why grief triggers emotional hunger, cortisol spikes, fatigue, overwhelm, and uncontrollable cravings—even when you’re “doing all the things.”
✨ 2. Why emotional eating is a grief response—not a willpower issue
We break down why your brain reaches for food during heartbreak, stress, and loneliness, and why this doesn’t make you weak—it makes you human.
✨ 3. How heartbreak changes your hormones, appetite, and emotions
You’ll discover the science behind grief, the amygdala, cortisol, emotional numbness, irritability, and that “I don’t feel like myself” fog women in midlife experience.
✨ 4. How faith stabilizes a dysregulated emotional world
You’ll hear how God becomes the anchor when you feel lost… the strength when you feel weak… and the comfort when your body feels overwhelmed.
✨ 5. Three practical faith-centered tools to interrupt emotional eating
Simple steps you can use today to calm your cravings, feel grounded, and begin healing without judgment, shame, or pressure.
