Cristina interviews Diana Rice from @anti.diet.kids on how to troubleshoot kids nutrition in a diet culture obsessed world. We dive into how to navigate your internal healthism voice that influences the way you feed your child, how positive encouragement can accidentally create a food hierarchy, and how having a narrow view of ‘healthy’ for our children can create a lot of internal parental pressure. It’s really easy to get stuck in over complicating meal times, and this can create negative pressure on ourselves and our children. How can we create a ‘healthy’ relationship with food in your home without compromising mental and emotional health?
