About the episode:
As we wrap up season one of Feeding Families I want to address the elephants in the room - those feelings of guilt, shame, and not-enoughness that too often slide in alongside when we learn about nourishing our families.

We’ve covered a lot this season to emphasize the powerful force food and nourishment exert on the health of our kids. But if that sense of overwhelm is creeping in, this episode is for you.

I want to close out this year with words of encouragement and empowerment so you can confidently march into the new year with a solid plan for nourishing your family you feel good about.
