The Truth About Picky Eaters (And What Parents Get Wrong)
In this episode, we sit down with Megan, registered dietitian and co-founder of Feeding Littles, to discuss what parents need to know about childhood nutrition, picky eating, and building a healthy relationship with food.
We explore why picky eating is often less about food and more about autonomy, the common mistakes that can unintentionally reinforce these behaviors, and what the latest research says about introducing allergenic foods early in life.
Join us in a conversation that goes beyond nutrition, covering body image, social media’s influence on children, and how parents can help raise confident kids who trust their hunger cues, enjoy food without fear, and develop healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Whether you're a parent, coach, healthcare professional, or simply interested in evidence-based health, this episode is packed with practical takeaways you can apply immediately.
