Isn’t summer supposed to be healing?

In today’s episode, I’m walking you through a 5-day Summer Skin Rescue Plan designed to calm inflammation, stop the scratching cycle, and g...

Your child’s skin was calm, maybe even clear.. until summer hit.

Now you’re dealing with redness, itching, sleepless nights, and nonstop scratching all over again. You didn’t do anything wrong. This is what happens when seasonal triggers overwhelm an already sensitive system.

In this episode of the Eczema Kids Podcast, I’m breaking down why summer is such a common season for flares and exactly how to support your child’s skin durin...

What if the sun, the pool, and even the popsicles weren’t the problem… but the missing pieces in your child’s summer diet were? In today’s episode, I’m sharing the unexpected foods that can calm your child’s eczema from the inside out, without overhauling everything or feeding them liver for every meal (don’t worry, I’ve got workarounds!). If you’ve ever thought, “I have no idea what’s causing this flare…” this one’s for you.

What if healing eczema is like learning to read?

Teaching my daughter Barbara to read wrecked me in all the same ways eczema did—until I found the right curriculum. If you’re doing all the right things but still waking up in survival mode, this episode is for you.

This is about real healing, what it looks like, what it takes, and why it’s 1...

When my daughters were flaring and no one was sleeping, I kept thinking the solution was to do more. More creams. More supplements. More research at 1 a.m. But what we really needed was less—less pressure, less chaos, more rhythm, more rest. In this episode, I’m sharing the 5-day healing staycation I wish I had taken back then. It’s simple, it’s grounding, and it creates the space your child’s body needs to finally respond to all t...

“Why is my child still so itchy?”

You’re not crazy for asking. Even with the cleanest diet, the best integrative care, and the purest products, eczema can persist. In this episode, I’m sharing the real triggers most practitioners overlook, from histamine overload and hidden sensitivities to EMFs, prenatal exposures and more. I’ll explain how to get the answers you need—without wasting time, money, or your sanity.

You've cleaned up the food. Swapped the jammies. Tossed the junk. And your child is still flaring.

I've been there. And lately, I’ve been back in that bracing-for-impact headspace—financial stress, family tension, the kind of noise that hums in the background and wears you down. My body feels it. My kids feel it too.

Hey Team,

I know how frustrating it is when you’re doing everything “right”—you’ve cut out gluten, dairy, eggs, and still your child’s skin is flaring. It feels like food is the enemy. But in this episode, I want to shift that belief.

Because your child doesn’t have eczema because of a slice of bread or a bite of scrambled egg. The real issue is a leaky gut, sluggish detox pathways, and an overwhelmed immune system that’s respondin...
