When Kids Graduate and Bodies Change: Processing Grief and Finding Freedom

from Compared to Who? Body Image for Christian Women · host Heather Creekmore - Christian Body Image Author and Speaker

Today, Heather vulnerably shares the grief she's experiencing over facing her son's graduation this month and how similar this kind of grief is to the grieving that we experience on our body image freedom journeys. Heather talks about how many women face the "Can I get a do over?" feelings at the end of eighteen years of parenting or when they reach mid-life or later. Looking at the five stages of grief, Heather explains how important it is to "feel to heal" and how grieving can help us process emotions in a healthy way so that we can truly find freedom.
