Description

Tried sticker charts, bite counts, hiding veggies, even therapy — and still stuck?
You’re not doing it wrong. You’re just working with the wrong approach.


In this episode, I’ll break down the 4 biggest reasons most feeding strategies fall short (even the ones recommended by professionals) — and what to do instead if you want lasting change.


Here’s what we unpack:
🚫 Why focusing only on behavior backfires
🚫 How ignoring sensory + oral motor skills keeps your child stuck
🚫 Why food refusal is usually a symptom, not the root issue
✅ And the holistic approach that actually meets your child where they are


If your gut has ever said, “This can’t be all there is,” — this episode will show you what’s really missing… and how to start making progress.
