How do we raise independent kids and feel less overwhelmed as moms?

In this soulful episode of the Soul Care Mom Podcast, I sit down with the brilliant Katie Kimball—TEDx speaker, mom of four, and founder of Kids Cook Real Food—to explore the powerful connection between life skills, picky eating, and confidence for both kids and moms.

We chat about:

💛 The real reasons behind picky eating (it’s not just the food!)

💛 How teaching life skills builds confidence + reduces anxiety in children

💛 Practical, doable ways to bring your kids into the kitchen (without chaos)

💛 Why giving your child a knife might be the best thing you do this week

💛 What Katie would tell her younger self about fear, freedom, and family teamwork

This conversation is filled with love, laughter, and lightbulb moments that will leave you feeling empowered to do motherhood a little differently.
