Are you passing on your disordered eating to your kids?

On episode 129 of The Diet Diaries I’m talking about one of the most commonly asked questions/topics from clients, friends and even strangers.How do I not pass along my issues with food to my kids? I LOVED recording this episode and will likely do another one in the future because there’s a lot to unpack here. I share some really simple skills you can introduce to even the youngest of kids (ages 2-3) that can establish a healthy, easeful relationship with food. The truth is that every mom is doing their best with the experience and resources they have—our intention is always to help and support our kids. And alongside that, the reality is that we all have an opportunity to become more aware of how we’re talking about and interacting with food both on our own and with our kids. Very often we don’t know what we don’t know. This point of this episode is to change that—because when we know better, we can do better. Here’s what I’m talking about today:Why eating healthy food isn’t actually the goalHow to incorporate sweets and dessertsWhy scarcity around certain foods is making things harder for youHow to educate your kids around nutrition without assigning moral value to foodNoticing how you talk about bodies—your own and other people’sClick here to sign up for Nourishing Notes: Summer Edition.Watch The Diet Diaries on YouTubeWatch Dr. Becky's food battles workshopConnect with JordanaFind me on InstagramSign up for my weekly letter with personal stories and nutrition, body image and mindset tipsSchedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together Listen to more episodes of The Diet Diaries
