<p>What if your period, hormones, and fertility weren’t problems to control, but invitations to better understand your body and bring your struggles honestly before the Lord?</p><p>If you’ve ever felt confused by your cycle, frustrated by missing periods, overwhelmed by hormone symptoms, or scared that nourishing your body will change it in ways you’re not ready for, this conversation is for you. It can feel so discouraging when your body seems unpredictable, especially when you’re also trying to honor God, heal your relationship with food, or prepare for a healthy future. And when the advice around hormones and fertility starts sounding like one giant “eat perfectly or else” rulebook, it can quickly stir up more anxiety than peace.</p><p>In today’s episode, Brittany sits down with Bekah Yawn to talk about hormone health, fertility, periods, nutrition, and the spiritual side of caring for your body. You’ll hear a compassionate, faith-filled conversation about what your cycle may be revealing, why your period matters more than culture often tells you, and how to approach hormone support without diving headfirst into rigidity or food rules. </p><p>This episode will help you think differently about your body — not as something broken or annoying, but as something God created with purpose, wisdom, and care.</p><p>A few things you can expect to hear in this episode include…</p><p>🩸 How your period may be giving you more information than you realize</p><p>🙏 The spiritual question that might feel scary to ask God, but could open the door to deeper healing</p><p>🥑 A gentler way to think about nutrition for hormone health without creating another list of food rules</p><p>🌿 What your body may be communicating when your cycle feels off, missing, painful, or unpredictable</p><p>💛 How to begin seeing your body with more compassion, curiosity, and awe for the way God designed it</p><p><strong>Resources mentioned:</strong></p><p>&gt; Hear more from Bekah on her podcast, <em>For the Love of Hormones</em></p><p>&gt; Connect with Bekah further at www.bekahyawn.com </p><p>&gt; <a href="http://www.brittanybraswellrd.com/VIP" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Subscribe to Brittany&#39;s personal newsletter, The Full Plate Press</a><em>,</em> for weekly food freedom tips, funny memes, and personal stories from behind-the-scenes shenanigans to mom life craziness to personal lessons you can apply to your food freedom journey.</p><p>&gt; Get immediate access to <a href="http://www.brittanybraswellrd.com/course" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">The Joy-Filled Eater Course</a> for the proven process that’s helped dozens upon dozens of women achieving lasting food freedom and better body image.</p><p>&gt; Join our FREE Facebook community, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/christianwomeninrecovery" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Food Freedom &amp; Body Image Support for Christian Women</a>, to ask your questions about cultivating a joy-filled relationship with food, your body, &amp; Jesus.</p><p><strong>Want to help support this show?</strong></p><p>If you love the show and are finding it valuable, be sure to leave a 5-star rating and review on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-joy-filled-eater-podcast/id1658146214" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Apple Podcasts</a> or <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7Bo0Z4VpiWozXR9ZgcaxZD" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Spotify</a>.
