Yes, I have kids.

No, they haven’t always eaten everything I’ve put in front of them.

In spite of all this, I stand by my statement: there is no such thing as a “picky eater.”

This is not an argument over semantics but an attempt to understand attitudes and behaviors - both around food and otherwise - in a way that seeks to recognize the Hunger for Connection that is behind them.

In today’s episode, we’ll look at the neuroscience of fear and safety and how something really good can make things really difficult - especially when it comes to getting children to eat their blue vegetables (see what I did there?).

I hope you are served by this episode. If so, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend.
