        • Paediatric Dietician: What in Karina Savage's Lunchboxes + How to Empower Yourself in the Supermarket!

          Every time I post about kids’ nutrition, the internet seems to lose its mind.


          I’m accused of fear mongering, not having adequate qualifications (I do btw), and just general keyboard warrior nonsense.


          So I thought – what better than to bring on a Paediatric Dietician?


          Today I’m sitting down with Karina Savage, who has over 23 years clinical experience (and 10 years in a children’s hospital) to chat about exactly that.


          We’re covering:

          • The biggest marketing tricks brands are using on parents + what you need to know to empower yourself in the supermarket
          • Why what your kid is eating might be causing their moods and tantrums (it might not be ADHD!)
          • Tricks for picky eaters + easy changes you can make today that won’t cause your kid to throw a tantrum
          • What’s in the lunchboxes Karina’s making for her own kids

            • … and SO much more


            Do you want to work with Karina? Check out her website www.nourishwithkarina.com or over on IG @nourishwithkarina

          • There’s a new trend … and it has the potential to cause long term damage to your body and mind

            There are a lot of coaches at the moment telling you that you can eat ANYTHING you like - as long as you’re in a calorie deficit or the macros stack up. 


            And the next time you see one of these … mentally, tell them to f**k off. 


            Because although calories are important they are NOT the only thing you should be focusing on..


            Today I’m telling you: 

            • How calories work especially if you want to lose weight 
            • Why some “healthy foods” will actually make you gain weight 
            • How you can still eat the foods you love BUT get the results you want and not be starving 
            • The trend that is causing poor mental health, brain fog, bloating, tiredness, bad skin and long term effects like type 2 diabetes AND chronic disease

              Today’s questions are:

              • My partner never initiates sex… how do I bring the spark back? (HA just wait till you hear this one)
              • My friend won’t stop whining about her weight but won’t do anything about it – can I call her out? (Short answer yes. Long answer: here’s how we’d do it)
              • One of my kids is just harder to love. Help. (We REALLY hope ____ doesn’t listen to this one)
              • How do I get my kid off video games and into sports? (This one sparked a fight)


                • Plus the conversation spirals into man flu, surgery, selling dirty gym socks online, and whether we should start an OnlyFans but you’ll have to listen to find out what for.
