Demystifying Protein

When we trust in our body's beautiful wisdom, we can see our struggles with food, family feeding, and body image in a new light. The Feeding Humans podcast dives deep into what it means to be human—our complexities and flaws, our elegant physiology, our absolute uniqueness, our rich lived experiences. All these shape the way we relate to food. And because our little ones are human too, our family feeding challenges suddenly make a lot more sense. This podcast will help you find peace with yourself, parent with confidence, and raise confident kids who trust their bodies. These conversations are based on a firm belief that bodies are good. All bodies, of all sizes, shapes, colors, and abilities. Topic areas include child development, picky eating, extreme feeding challenges, eating disorders, body image concerns, and intuitive eating to help you understand how the human body longs not to be our enemy, but our partner. And from there, we can intuitively care for ourselves and nourish our loved ones in a joyful, connecting way.
