In this episode, Bethany Thomson shares 3 healthy coping strategies for midlife women walking through grief and crisis—reminding you that the waves will not overcome you.

If you’ve ever felt undone by grief, overwhelm, or emotions that rise like turbulent waves, you are not alone.

Bethany—a Registered Dietitian, functional nutritionist, and holistic Christian life coach—offers hope and gentle practices for weary midlife women who long to stop numbing and start resting.

• Why emotions can feel overwhelming—and why numbing with food, wine, scrolling, or overwork leaves us emptier.
• The truth about emotions as waves: they crest, they pass, and while they leave us changed, they do not overcome us.
• A Scriptural anchor in Isaiah 43 to cling to when you feel undone.
• Gentle practices to let emotions move through you instead of bracing against them.
• Holistic care rhythms—like humming, movement, and nourishment—to support your body while you process.

If you’ve been afraid that your feelings will sweep you away, take heart: the waves will not destroy you. The One who walks on stormy waters is with you, right in the middle of your storm.
