Courtney Violet Bentley, host of Fit, Fierce, and Fabulous Podcast wrestled with anorexia, bulimia, and a toxic "lack of" mentality after losing her father and grandfather. When her grandmother died, she decided enough was enough and challenged herself to find the joy in life, rediscovering her body, her spirit, and her personal power. Also on the show, I answer a listener question about trouble sleeping after a dog dies. And I have a special message for the romantic/intimate partners of grievers.
