#207 - 3 Things I Teach My 6yr Old About Food (that most adults never were)

Why does food feel so charged — even when you “know better”?In this episode, I share three things I consciously teach my six-year-old about food — not as parenting advice, but as a way of understanding why so many adults still struggle in silence.Because after years of working with women and food, one thing is clear:the way we learn about food early on becomes the voice we hear later — especially when we’re tired, stressed, or overwhelmed.We talk about:why labelling food as “good” or “bad” creates shame, not balancehow learning to ignore hunger and fullness disconnects us from ourselvesand why using food as reward or punishment still shows up in adulthoodThis isn’t about blaming parents.And it’s not about fixing yourself.It’s about recognising the scripts you inherited — and gently questioning whether they’re still serving you.If you’ve ever felt embarrassed by how emotional food can feel…this episode will likely explain a lot.
