We all know the famous taglines on social media or in magazines that draw us into "bouncing back" after having a baby.

Is it wrong to want to pursue taking care of ourselves during pregnancy/postpartum? What if I just focus on body positivity and try to think myself into loving what my body looks like? Or maybe it just isn't worth it at all?

We dive into these questions in today's episode with Brittany Braswell!

You'll hear in today's conversation:
- why Brittany felt a nudge from the Lord to help women break free from body shaming
- her experiences postpartum
- the biggest struggles women deal with postpartum when it comes to their bodies
- practical tools you can implement to overcome shame and guilt
- the process Brittany walks her clients through so that they can enjoy their health and wellness journey

Brittany is a Registered Dietitian, food freedom & body image coach, public speaker, and host of the top-rated  The Joy-Filled Eater Podcast.  She specializes in the treatment of disordered eating and negative body image, providing Christ-centered coaching to Christian women around the world who are ready to break free from the bondage of food guilt and body shame.

Thank you for listening! We hope you enjoy the episode!

We touch on:
- MK's story and how she overcame her circumstances

- things you can do to encourage healing

MK is a personal trainer and fitness nutrition specialist who helps women find freedom to flourish in their health and fitness journeys through a sustainable and holistic approach to exercise, nutrition, and healthy habits.

Her vision is to see the end of the chronic illness epidemic among women in America by spreading the truth about chronic illness and healing the root cause of disease through a healthy lifestyle.
