Welcome to Real Food Recovery, a podcast created by two lifelong processed food addicts with over 100 years of addiction (and recovery) between them. Paige Alexander and Jamie Morgan Reno use their Real Food Recovery podcast and social media channels to share their struggles, lessons learned, tools, tips, and resources that freed them from decades of food addiction, obsession, and loss.

Today, we are going to talk about a tender topic…grief. This is an uncomfortable topic, but a necessary one, especially for those of us in recovery. That’s because recovery from addiction, no matter what shape it takes or the stage that it’s in, is an emotionally taxing time. Losing someone or something you love can bring great sadness for anyone, but for someone in recovery,it can throw us completely off, leading often to strong temptations and a even a the potential lapse and withdrawal. But we have hope and tools to share that can keep you on track in your recovery AND give you a greater sense of peace.
