Lift the Shame: Mothering Free From Diet Culture, Food Guilt, and Body Shame

Feeding children has a way of bringing old wounds around food and your body right back to the surface. As you work toward raising intuitive eaters, you might inevitably find yourself feeling triggered by the way your kids eat, their appetites, and/or the sizes of their bodies. This doesn't make you a bad parent. Understanding why you're feeling triggered by these things can help you learn how to manage your discomfort so you don't project this on your child. Tune in to today's episode where we dive into this topic and discuss why you might be feeling triggered and how to manage these triggers effectively so you can extend unconditional acceptance to your child around food and their body.
