What happens when we face the hard reality of childhood obesity with solutions-focused honesty, grace, and hope? In this episode, Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast host, Jamie Belz, jumps into the passenger seat and releases the reins as a guest on The Liberty Wellness Podcast, hosted by Rebecca Stewart.
Rebecca is a National Board-Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP), a homeschool mama of two, and the founder of Liberty Wellness & Co.—a virtual practice supporting clients through complex chronic illnesses like Lyme disease, Hashimoto's, and autoimmune conditions. She's also the creator of the Liberty Wellness Homeschool High School Health Curriculum, giving families a solid foundation for health education at home. Her heart for parents, children, and future generations shines through every word.
After listening to Episode 35 of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Rebecca invited Jamie to be a guest on her platform for a real conversation to help parents and kids understand:
The biology behind childhood obesity - why it's not just "baby fat" and how early patterns set lifelong health trajectories.
Parental guilt, shame, and fear—how to forgive ourselves and look forward with positivity as we help heal our families.
The impact of sugar, dopamine hits, screen time, and nutrient-deficient foods on kids' developing bodies.
Why bio-individuality matters: every child is unique, and healing isn't one-size-fits-all.
Generational cycles of health decline, including the eye-opening research of Dr. Francis Pottenger and the warnings of Dr. Weston A. Price nearly a century ago.
How simple, doable changes—nutrient-dense meals, family modeling, stress reduction, and connection—can rewrite the story for our kids and grandkids.
The powerful reminder that it's never too late to shift course, heal, and create meaningful change, redemption, and hope for healthier generations.
