Eating & Food with Kids

Returning guest, Tressa Beaulieu (RD), chatted with me about Food, Feeding, and Eating with Kids.

We covered:

How do I teach my child healthy eating habits?

My child is a picky eater. How do I get them to try new foods/eat more fruits and veggies?

How do I teach my child healthy eating habits if I struggle with eating and weight?

My child wants to eat the same foods everyday. Is this okay?

& more!

Tressa chats a lot about exposure and exploration with children! Teaching children to eat with their 5 senses. She refers to Ellen Satters and her practice's, which you can read more on here:

As an FYI: Neither Tressa nor I have children, but we both feel strongly about being mindful with children when teaching them life style practices that they will use their whole life! Tressa has a great deal of experience in this topic, I found this super interesting!
