Another amazing episode. Katharine is beyond knowledgeable and I am beyond grateful for all of her wisdom. We discussed:

  • That hardest part about feeding our kids
  • The 2 things to let go of when it come to feeding your kids
  • The things you DON’T have to do to be a good parent
  • Why we need to be mindful of our reactions
  • The need to address our own food series, issues and trauma to show up openly with our kids
  • The #1 thing NOT to do to help our kids develop a healthy relationship with food + My #1 rule TO DO to raise a food neutral child. 
  • What is and isn’t your job — or in your control — when it comes to how your child eats
  • The permission you’ve been waiting for when it comes to getting your kids to eat
  • The difference between what our kids NEED and what we WANT them to eat
  • The 1 thing you can do NOW to dramatically change the way you and your kids are with and around food
