Let’s talk about what no one tells you about steroid creams — and what your child’s skin might really be asking for instead.
This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re continuing our eczema series by exploring the role of steroid creams in eczema treatment. If your child has been prescribed steroid creams and you’re wondering if they’re the only way forward — this episode is a must-listen.
We’re not here to create fear or guilt — just to bring clarity and help you make more informed decisions. Because when we understand how steroid creams work (and their limitations), we can take empowered steps toward long-term skin health that actually last.
Here’s what we cover:
- Why steroid creams are a short-term tool, not a long-term solution — and what they aren’t doing for your child’s skin.
- The risks of relying on steroid creams too often or for too long, including skin thinning, increased sensitivity, and Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW).
- How to start reducing steroid cream use safely while addressing the underlying causes of eczema.
- Practical, nourishing alternatives that support your child’s skin barrier and immune health from the inside out.
🎧 Tune in to feel more informed and confident as you navigate eczema with a more holistic lens. We’re here to help you move beyond the endless cycle of flare-ups and creams — and guide you toward sustainable, naturopathic support that works for your family.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
