If I Had to Start Over with my Picky Eater


Listen Later

If you could go back and start over with your picky eater, what would you do differently?

In this episode, I’m sharing the 5 things I wish I’d known from the beginning—whether your kid just started getting picky, you’re in the trenches right now, or you’re trying to prevent it with a baby who’s eating everything.

The best part? You can start doing ALL of these things today. No time machine required

In this episode:

  • Why embracing the MESS is the #1 most powerful thing you can do (touch before taste!)
  • The hunger window mistake I made that created meltdowns at the table
  • How my anxiety was secretly fueling my son’s picky eating
  • Why doing too much FOR your kid actually tells them you don’t trust them
  • The risky play your kid needs to build confidence with new foods
  • This isn’t just about what I did wrong—it’s about understanding the ROOT CAUSE of picky eating. Because sometimes it’s not a strategy issue… it’s a nervous system safety issue
