Creating Mealtime Peace with Little Picky Eaters

As busy moms of young children, feelings of frustration, guilt, pressure or overwhelm can frequently be found as unwelcome guests at our kitchen and dining room tables. Today, I am joined by Registered Dietitian Ahuva Magder Hershkop, and she is teaching us about intentionally creating an environment in our homes that inspires intuitive eating within our kids, and melts mealtime stress. Ahuva shares simple strategies and insights about our roles and goals when it comes to feeding our children. So, ready to kiss those aforementioned, unwelcome dinner guests goodbye? Come on, mama, it's time to go from mealtime stress to success!

In today's episode, we discuss:

  • Shifting our expectations and re-calibrating our mindset around mealtime as parents
  • Raising healthy, intuitive eaters by introducing the 'division of responsibility' framework into your household
  • Relieving the pressure to persuade your kids to eat, and how to create an environment that honors hunger cues
  • Healthy mealtime conversation: what it is, and what it isn't
  • Strategies for helping and encouraging your little picky eater
  • When it comes to feeding our children, why bigger is not better
  • Ahuva's parting words of wisdom
