Is the morning school routine triggering a meltdown—for your child and you? If you are dealing with a crying child before the bus comes, I want you to know two things: You are doing a great job, and anxiety is a wave that we can learn to surf.

Today, I’m talking to you like a friend on the couch. We are going to explore how integrative wellness can change the chemistry of your morning. It’s not about "fixing" your child; it’s about giving them the tools to overcome those big feelings.

What we cover:

• Co-Regulation: How to be the anchor so your child can "borrow" your calm.
• Nature’s Medicine: Using morning sunlight to boost serotonin naturally.
• Breathwork for Kids: Fun, easy ways to breathe through the scary moments.

This is a season, not a life sentence. Tune in for the encouragement and strategies you need to face tomorrow morning with confidence.

Keep'em Healthy is specializing now on Kid/Teen Health! Come listen to the new episodes every MONDAY! 

You know that feeling when you’re sitting in the doctor’s office, looking at your child who you know is struggling, and the "experts" just shrug their shoulders? 

I lived in that "I don't know" space for way too long. I was frustrated, I was uncomfortable, and honestly, I was heartbroken watching my child miss out on just being a kid. I knew their potential was so much bigger than the symptoms they were stuck with. 

But then I remembered: No one knows my child better than I do. I decided to stop waiting for permission and started digging. I pulled from my background in science and education and went back to the basics—using food as medicine and making simple lifestyle shifts that actually made sense. 

The result? My child went from "constantly sick" to "thriving." ✨ 

I started Keep’em Healthy because you shouldn’t have to feel like you’re hitting a brick wall every time you ask for help. If you’re feeling that pull in your gut that your child needs more than what you’re being told, you’re in the right place. Let’s take the guesswork out of it and start making changes together. 

You’ve got the intuition, I’ve got the resources. Let’s get them healthy. 🌿🧡

In this episode, I welcome Sam Citro Alexander to the show. Sam is all about how to make small, smarter swaps in the grocery aisle that genuinely improve health—without spending more money or cooking differently. People don’t need another diet trend, they need clarity. The FoodHealth Score lets you compare two nearly identical products—two yogurts, two cereals, two pastas—and instantly see which one supports better long-term health. It’s about tiny, doable changes that fit real life: a lunchbox swap, a better granola, a soda alternative. When you start improving the health score of your cart in small steps, you change outcomes in a big way.

Sam Citro Alexander is the co-founder and CEO of FoodHealth, the company behind the FoodHealth Score—a data tool that rates every product in the grocery store based on ingredient quality and nutrient density. She built the platform after her own experience with severe food intolerances, and now works with retailers and CPG brands to help families make healthier choices with simple, smart swaps.

FoodHealth Co. is rolling out a free new tool that lets online shoppers see the FoodHealth Score for each item—and find healthy swaps—at major retailers in the U.S. Join the waitlist here: https://www.foodhealth.co/fhai
