About the episode:
When we understand our kids we can help them; when we don’t understand them they drive us bonkers. We all know that force-feeding and bribing picky kids to eat more typically snowballs into anger, frustration, and chaos, so what to do with your picky eater who refuses to nourish their bodies the way we know they need to? This episode gives you some practical ways to cultivate compassion, curiosity, and a positive family culture around food if you are struggling with a picky eater or any type of strange eating behavior.
Some of what we discussed:
Elissa Arnheim is a mother & health coach who helps parents reduce their child's picky eating, belly & behavior issues peacefully.
