Leading by Example: Navigating Nutrition with Kids

Megan Laudick Episode 21

In today’s episode, we’re diving into one of the most heartfelt and foundational topics for parents—how we model healthy habits and talk to our kids about food and nutrition. Whether you're raising daughters, sons, or both, you’ve probably already seen how different those experiences can be—and how early the seeds of body image and food beliefs start to form.

I share the exact language I use with my own kids when it comes to exercise, food choices, and even weighing and measuring my meals. You'll hear how I shift the focus toward strength, energy, and feeling good, rather than guilt or restriction—and how powerful it can be to invite your kids into the process in small, age-appropriate ways.

This isn’t about doing it perfectly—it’s about being intentional, and knowing your influence at home matters more than anything.
