As I’ve been on my own journey of repairing my relationship with my body and food, I’ve realized that much of the messaging I’ve given my children, especially in their younger years, was given out of love, but not necessarily helpful.


But what happens when we realize the messaging we’ve given our children is something we wish we could change? There’s that saying that when you know better you do better, but what do we do when what we didn’t know was actually harmful?


Registered Dietitian Kristin Williams joins us today to help us navigate this. Kristin works with all types of clients, male and female, young to not-so-young, but also with a lot of young women and their parents. I knew she was just the right person to have this conversation with compassion, grace, and truth. However old your children are, if you’re thinking “oh man have I messed them up?” this is an episode for you.   

We discuss:

- Wishing we could have done things differently
- Reverse course from diet culture and body shaming with our older kids
- Opening the conversation of "I think I messed up"
- How to broach challenging conversations like what our children are wearing
