The Hidden Truth About Picky Eating & Why Bribing With Dessert Isn't Helping (Check Their Iron First!)
đ˝ď¸ What's Inside This Episode
Could your child's picky eating actually be a sign of low iron? Join me and registered dietitian Jennifer House as we uncover the surprising health issues behind feeding strugglesâfrom iron deficiency to breathing problemsâand share the exact framework that eliminates mealtime battles without bribing, begging, or making three different dinners.
đ Why You Need This (You're Not Alone, Mama)
You're exhausted from fighting your kids to "just take three more bites" every single night
You feel like a short-order cook making different meals for each family member
You're worried your child isn't getting enough nutrition, and the guilt is eating you alive
Mealtimes have become the most stressful part of your dayâeveryone's anxious before you even sit down

Jennifer shares her daughter's shocking story and why this simple blood test changed everything.
đŻ The Division of Responsibility Framework: Learn the exact roles YOU control (what, when, where) versus what your CHILD controls (whether, how much)âand how following this eliminates 90% of dinner battles. No more begging them to finish their plate!
đ¨âđŠâđ§âđŚ Family-Style Eating That Actually Works: Get practical strategies for letting kids serve themselves, why a simple footstool can keep toddlers at the table longer, and how to stop being a short-order cook without feeling guilty.
