Trauma & Food: Your Child’s Relationship with Food | James Trail Podcast with guest Madison Tyler

In this episode, host Meredith Shuman is joined by pediatric dietitian and foster/adoptive mother Madison Tyler. Together, they explore the intersection of nutrition, childhood trauma, and family dynamics. Madison explains the vital difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist and shares her journey into trauma-informed feeding practices. They discuss how stress and past adverse experiences (ACEs) directly impact a child's relationship with food. Learn why kids might use food as a tool for control and how parents can shift their language to create a shame-free environment around the dinner table.HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT:🔔 LIKE this video and SUBSCRIBE to this channel for more faith-based, trauma-informed mental health content!💵 DONATE: We appreciate your donations and partnership.
