14 Apr 2025

Description

Send us a textWelcome to Season 4 of Don't Feed the Fear — a new chapter I'm calling “I Don’t Want to Talk About It.”  This season is all about the things we avoid — the fears we carry in silence, the emotions we push down, and the stories we tell ourselves (and sometimes don’t) about life with food allergies. The episode also touches on last season's discussion of strengthening our trust in our support systems.This episode is a powerful and tender conversation with retired paramedic and grief guide, John Moir, host of the Urban Grief Shamans podcast and leader of grief healing circles for those navigating deep loss.In this episode, we explore:The hidden emotional toll of food allergy emergenciesWhat grief looks like when there's no "death"How first responders experience trauma and their role in oursWhy naming our grief is a crucial step toward healingJohn brings a rare blend of insight and compassionate presence, inviting us to look gently at the parts of our story we usually avoid. This is a conversation for anyone who's ever had to hold it together during a crisis — and is now wondering what to do with the weight they still carry.Whether you’re a parent, a patient, or a professional, this episode is a reminder that grief and anxiety don’t mean something’s wrong with you — they mean something happened. And you deserve support for that.Urban Grief Shamans - Alternative Spiritual Healing and GrowthBreak Free, Reclaim Power & Find Peace with Soulful HealingHome - Soulful SorrowsThe Wild Edge of Sorrow a book by Francis Weller and Michael Lerner - Bookshop.org USVial of LifeSpecial thanks to Kyle Dine for permission to use his song The Doghouse for the podcast theme!www.kyledine.comFind Dr. Whitehouse:-thefoodallergypsychologist.com-Instagram: @thefoodallergypsychologist-Facebook: Dr. Amanda Whitehouse, Food Allergy Anxiety [email protected]
