In this episode, I talked with Jill Castle, MS, RDN who is a childhood nutrition expert, author and mother of four. We talk about the different feeding styles parents can have and discuss why parents approach feeding their kids the way they do. We also outline how to navigate difficult conversations with your kids about weight and food when those topics come up in your home.   Every parent wants the best for their child. Every parent wants to provide the tools and education for their children to grow healthfully and happily. But, sometimes even well-intentioned parents approach the feeding relationship in ways that perpetuate or even create issues around food, eating and body image. Jill and I talk about how to avoid the common pitfalls of the feeding relationship and how to feed your children fearlessly.   Jill is a registered dietitian nutritionist, a sought-after speaker the author of several books, a podcast host and a blogger.   Links mentioned: Jill's website: https://jillcastle.com/ Jill's books The Nourished Child Podcast hosted by Jill Castle, MS, RDN
