In this episode, we interviewed the hilarious & beautiful Kaitlyn Sapp to merge two of our favorite topics: respectful parenting + nourishment. These topics are so important to join together, because they have everything to do with each other! Nourishing our children isn't just about cooking "healthy foods" - it's about modeling what we want to see in our children, listening to & validating their communication, honoring their autonomy, & letting go of the desire to obsessively control their behavior + actions. Respecting our children as whole beings from birth is the foundation we need to lay to be able to simplify their nutrition with ease, nourish their minds + bodies, & cultivate peaceful mealtimes.
