In this episode of EpiPod, we’re diving into the ever-evolving journey of raising kids with food allergies—from toddlers to teens. How do we empower allergy kiddos with the right knowledge at the right time, without overwhelming them with fear? It’s all about striking the balance between education and anxiety.
Sarah walks us through how to introduce allergy concepts to little ones—building awareness, routines, and confidence from the earliest stages. Then Danielle shares her lived experience navigating middle and high school with allergies, offering insights on peer interactions, independence, and the emotional side of allergy management in adolescence.
Whether you're a parent, caregiver, educator, or someone growing up with allergies yourself, this episode offers real talk, practical tips, and a whole lot of empathy for every age and stage.
