Trauma with food does not have to be just from being starved and/or resulting in an eating disorder (although it definitely can). I have been called a "picky/weird eater" by many family members and friends. Maybe you are that person too...

Real-life examples of how food trauma can show up that many of us miss (especially as PARENTS) and how to change unhealthy patterns for you and your kids.

The PROCESS I wish someone would have taught me at my kid's age that I used to help my own inner child stop hating the world...
Someone said something so wildly inappropriate to me at a family party...holyyyy...

We've all been there as parents- your kid is doing something out in public (or with judgmental family) and you want so desperately to make it stop...
