Have you ever felt disconnected from your body—or grieved the version of it you used to know? I have. And in this episode of Unleash Your Inner Creative, I’m talking with disability advocate and author Jayne Mattingly about something we don’t hear enough about: body grief, and how it can quietly block our creativity and self-love. Here’s what I’ve come to realize: when we lose trust in our bodies, we often lose connection to ourselves and therefore our creative voice. But when we start rebuilding that trust—even slowly—we open the door to healing, peace, and creative freedom. Jayne created a powerful framework to help us understand and move through body grief, and in this episode, she shares her story, how it applies to you, and how getting into a relationship with your body can shift everything—from how you heal to how you create. From this episode, you’ll learn: -What body grief is and how to recognize it in your own life -The 7 stages of body grief and how to move through them -How to begin rebuilding trust with your body—at any stage -Why healing your relationship with your body can unlock your creativity TW: Eating Disorders and Mental Health More on Jayne Unleash is Nominated for a Webby Award and we need your help to win!
