Raising Intuitive Eaters With Karleigh Jurek, RD

Listen Later

In this episode, I had a fantastic conversation with registered dietitian and child-feeding expert, Karleigh Jurek. Karleigh shares some excellent insight into helping our kids strengthen and develop their intuitive eating instincts.

  • Avoiding guilt and shame around food
  • A simple model that lays out the role of the parent and the role of the child in the feeding relationship
  • Desserts and other sweets
  • When should we be concerned about our child's weight when taking a weight-neutral approach?
  • Introducing new and unfamiliar foods
  • The connection between issues feeding our children and our own relationship with food
  • The importance of men also being involved in the feeding of kids

    • I can't emphasize enough that the job of feeding children of any age is just as much for men as it is for women! Yes, I’m talking to you, dads. We have a powerful role to play and our involvement can have a profound impact on the kind of relationship with food that our kids ultimately develop.
