Now What?
Most moms make nearly 35,000 choices per day. It’s no wonder 75% of women claim rising stress levels and 25% of us are on the path to burnout. This ticking time bomb approach to living is going to be the death of us. Something has to change, there’s gotta be something more.

Beyond the Plate: Parenting, Food Culture, and Healthy Habits with Jill Castle, MS RDN
Feeling overwhelmed by today’s food environment as a parent? You’re not alone. In this episode, I sit down with Jill Castle, a registered dietitian and pediatric nutrition specialist, to dive into the challenges and opportunities of raising healthy eaters in a world filled with mixed messages. Jill shares how her personal experience as a mother reshaped her professional views, and why a child’s eating habits involve so much more than just "what" they eat. We explore the importance of feeding styles, the hidden influence of food marketing, and why nourishing kids is as much about emotional and environmental health as it is about nutrition itself.
In this episode, we explore:
- Why how we feed our children matters as much as what we feed them
- The challenges of today’s kid-focused food marketing and environment
- How parents’ own childhood experiences with food impact their feeding style
- The importance of building intuitive eating habits early without fear or pressure
- Why healthy lifestyle habits—not rigid diets—lay the foundation for lifelong wellness
