How do I nourish positive relationships with food in my kids? with Ellen Tuzi

This week we are joined by Ellen (ellen.tuzi) - a body image and intuitive eating counsellor - to chat all things food relationships and our children. 

We chat about:

• Avoiding food hierarchies and the impact of diet culture on us, as parents. 

• How to use neutral language around food and food choices to reduce the morality or emotions associated with some foods. 

• Navigating dietary differences or picky eaters. 
• How to guide our kids (and really, ourselves) to trust our bodies, enjoy food and mealtimes, and untangle a lot of the harmful messaging that exists around food, bodies and health. 

Ellen has some recommendations for anyone interested to explore more:
