Episode 39 — Beyond Wellness: What Actually Builds Body Trust in Our Kids (Part 2)

Episode 39 — Beyond Wellness: What Actually Builds Body Trust in Our Kids (Part 2) Hosts: Chanel Kenner, RD & Christine Heller 🎧 Season 2, Episode 3 In Part 2 of our deep dive into body trust, we unpack the modern "wellness" culture our kids are growing up in—because it's no longer just about what's said at the dinner table. From "clean eating" to weight-loss injectables to viral "SkinnyTok" trends, today's kids are swimming in messages that make it harder to trust their bodies. We explore: 🔹 The rebranding of diet culture as wellness 🔹 The cultural messaging behind GLP-1 meds like Ozempic and Wegovy 🔹 How social media algorithms are shaping body image in younger and younger kids 🔹 How to raise media-literate kids with "critical curiosity" 🔹 What actually builds body trust (spoiler: it starts with us) Whether you're a parent trying to model body respect while navigating your own journey, or you're just trying to make sense of it all—this episode is for you. Let's talk about raising kids who trust their hunger, respect their bodies, and can question a culture that tells them to shrink. 🧠 Real talk. No shame. Just tools for building trust—in their bodies, and yours. ✨ Connect with us: 📱 Instagram: @plateful.parenting.podcast 📬 Questions or episode ideas?
