The Intentional Table

The One Thing That Undermines Everything Else You're Doing


Listen Later

If you're listening to this podcast, you're investing time and energy into changing how you feed your kids. And of course... you want to see it work.

That's exactly what we need to talk about today, because this approach will change how your child eats, and you have to stop caring whether it does.

In this episode, we're diving into one of the hardest parts of this work: detachment. Detaching from the outcome of what and how your child actually eats. Because when we focus too much on whether they're eating "right" or whether the approach is "working," it backfires.

In this episode, I'm breaking down:

  • Why watching too closely for results undermines the approach (and how kids pick up on our energy even when we think we're hiding it)
  • What detachment actually looks like in practice - and what it doesn't mean
  • Why your child is on their own timeline and we have to trust the process
  • How this work is layered in its impact and it's not just about what your child is eating
  • The bigger picture and it's effects on your child's physical, mental, and emotional health

When we can detach from the outcome, it's not only helpful for our kids and their behaviors with food, but it's also freeing.
