The Insurance Secret Most Parents Never Hear About
<p>If you've been told feeding therapy isn't covered because the provider is out of network, don't give up just yet. There's a little-known option called a Single Case Agreement (SCA) that, in some situations, allows your insurance company to cover services with an out-of-network provider when appropriate care isn't otherwise available. In this short episode, I'll explain: What a Single Case Agreement is (in plain English) Who may qualify Why so few parents ever hear about this option How to start the conversation with your insurance company The biggest mistakes families make when requesting one While Single Case Agreements aren't guaranteed, they can be a powerful option that helps some families access the specialized feeding therapy their child needs without paying entirely out of pocket. If insurance has been one of the biggest barriers to getting help, this is an episode you won't want to miss.</p>

The Biggest Lie We Accidentally Teach Kids About Food
<h1>The Biggest Lie We Accidentally Teach Kids About Food</h1> <p>What if one of the most common questions parents ask at the dinner table is actually making picky eating harder?</p> <p>The moment a child takes a bite, we often ask:</p> <p><strong>"Do you like it?"</strong></p> <p>But what if that's the wrong goal altogether?</p> <p>In this episode, I explain why your child <strong>doesn't have to love a food to learn to eat it</strong> and how expecting them to immediately enjoy every new food can create unnecessary pressure. Instead, I'll show you how to model flexibility, encourage curiosity, and help your child develop a healthier relationship with food.</p> <p>Whether your child is a typical picky eater or struggles with trying any new foods, this simple mindset shift could completely change the way you approach mealtimes.</p> <h2>In this episode, you'll learn:</h2> <ul> <li> <p>Why children don't need to love every food they eat</p> </li> <li> <p>The hidden problem with asking, <strong>"Do you like it?"</strong></p> </li> <li> <p>Simple scripts to replace pressure with curiosity</p> </li> <li> <p>How to model flexible eating behaviors for your child</p> </li> <li> <p>Why "good enough" is often a better goal than "I love it"</p> </li> <li> <p>What it may mean if your child won't even taste a new food</p> </li> </ul> <h2>Remember:</h2> <p><strong>The goal isn't to raise a child who loves broccoli.</strong></p> <p><strong>The goal is to raise a child who can say, "It's not my favorite, but I can still eat it."</strong></p> <h2>Ready to take the next step?</h2> <p>If your child eats fewer than 20 foods, refuses entire food groups, or won't even taste something new, generic advice may not be enough. The first step is understanding <strong>why</strong> they're stuck.</p> <p>👉 Take my quiz to identify your child's feeding profile and discover the best next steps for helping them become a more confident and flexible eater. <a href="http://www.thepickyeaterstest.com">www.thepickyeaterstest.com</a> </p> <p>If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another parent who could use a little encouragement at the dinner table.</p>

What If Your Child Ate 20 New Foods This Summer?
<p>School is over. Summer is here. And if you're like most parents of a picky eater, you're hoping this will finally be the season things get better.</p> <p>But here's what I see every year: parents tell themselves they'll focus on feeding once the school-year chaos ends… then summer gets busy, vacations happen, life gets in the way, and suddenly another year has passed with little progress.</p> <p>In this episode, I'm sharing why waiting rarely makes feeding challenges easier and the biggest mindset shift that changed how I approach helping families. You'll learn why feeding therapy isn't about outsourcing the problem to a professional, why meals often become a stressful "test" for both parents and children, and how real progress starts long before a child takes a bite.</p> <p>We'll also talk about:</p> <ul> <li>Why summer is the perfect time to rebuild your child's relationship with food</li> <li>The hidden parent-child-food dynamic keeping many families stuck</li> <li>How curiosity and connection create more progress than pressure and rewards</li> <li>What feeding success actually looks like</li> <li>Simple ways to create positive food experiences this summer</li> </ul> <p>Plus, I'm introducing the <strong>FREE Summer of Good Food Challenge</strong>—a simple, fun way to help your child build confidence around food while creating positive family memories along the way.</p> <p><strong>Download the FREE Summer of Good Food Challenge here:</strong><br><span class=""><a href="https://foodologyfeeding.mykajabi.com/offers/2BF4ZLzX/checkout">https://foodologyfeeding.mykajabi.com/offers/2BF4ZLzX/checkout</a> </span></p> <p>If you're tired of dreading mealtimes and ready to stop waiting for the "perfect time" to work on feeding, this episode is for you. Because progress doesn't start when your child eats broccoli—it starts when you begin rebuilding their relationship with food.</p>
