Family dinners shouldn't feel like a daily battle between you and your child.
If you have a picky eater, you know how exhausting mealtimes can become. You're worried about whether your child is getting enough nutrients, frustrated that they won't try what you've prepared, and wondering whether you're being too strict or too accommodating.
In this episode, I'm joined by Katie Kimball, founder of Raising Healthy Families, and author of The Picky Eater Playbook.
We're talking about how to make family meals less stressful without becoming a short order cook, pressuring your kids to eat, or creating more conflict between you and your spouse.
In this episode, we discuss:
Why picky eating isn't always about being stubborn or difficult
How sensory sensitivities can influence what children are willing to eat
Why pressuring kids to take another bite can backfire
How to encourage food exploration without forcing children to eat
What to do when your child refuses the dinner you've prepared
How to establish boundaries while respecting your child's autonomy
How to get on the same page with your spouse about picky eating

Simple adjustments that can make family dinners more enjoyable
