Picky eating usually starts as a food problem.

They won’t eat the chicken. 🍗
They refuse anything green. 🥗
They want the same three foods, every single day. 🥣

But somewhere along the way, it starts affecting so much more than what’s on their plate.

Your other kids. Your energy. Your relationship. Your family meals. Going to restaurants and visiting family.

That’s when a list of kid-friendly recipes just doesn’t cut it anymore.

➡️ Swipe through to see the 5 areas picky eating tends to ripple into + one small shift you can make in each.

This week I was invited to the International Toronto French School to present to parents and school staff.

The topic: When Kids Don’t Eat Well (and what to do about it)

This might sound odd, but I started my presentation warning parents that I speak fast💨 - not just because I had too many mealtime strategies to cover in a short time.

But I also talk fast when I’m passionate about something.

The health and nutrition of our next generation is something I worry about.

Especially after released a study in JAMA flagging that 50% of a Canadian child’s diet consists of ultra-processed foods.

The cereals, flavoured yogurts, processed snacks and drinks make up HALF of their caloric intake.😬

🤔 WHY IS THAT A PROBLEM?

When kids eat refined sugars and ultra-processed foods, it causes energy spikes and crashes. And that shapes how they show up at school.

How they focus.
How they communicate.
How they handle conflict.
How they come home (cue cranky kids)

This isn’t just a learning issue. It’s a health issue. A behaviour issue. A development issue.

So when .ca invited me to show parents and staff at how to help kids eat better, it was a whole-hearted “yes.”

💚 Do parents, staff, or students in your child’s school want effective strategies to improve how kids eat? Or how to support selective eaters so they can thrive through the school day? 👉 ask about my Nutrition & Mealtime talks for schools.

Last week something happened at my 6th retreat. ✨

These women came as strangers. Some were business owners. Team leaders. Managers. Women in between jobs figuring out what’s next.

Seventeen women…all different stories wanting to relax.

Three days later, they left as something else entirely.

Calm. Inspired. Confident. Recharged. Motivated. Aligned. Like a new person.

Swipe to see what they said. ➡️

The Vibrant Retreat is more than just a “break”. It shifts how you return home - to your work, your family, your life.

✨ if you’re ready to be taken care of and treat yourself to this beautiful experience, there are 2 more retreats this year — your body and mind deserve it too.

“I am not exaggerating when I say the experience has been life changing.”

That’s what a woman told me after my last retreat. And she almost didn’t come because she was too busy.

I get it.

I recently talked myself into a facial after 7 years of putting it off. The peace I felt in that hour was real — but it was gone the moment I walked back through my front door.

An hour isn’t enough for the kind of reset our bodies and brains are actually craving.

That’s what 3 days does at my .

An hour of self-care is lovely. But it’s not enough to shift something on a deeper level.

This only happens TWICE a year — and the next one is this Wednesday April 1st (at 1pm or 8pm EST). 🚨

If your child is still refusing foods, and mealtimes feel like a daily battle you’re losing …

How many more weeks are you going to sit through that?

This free training is for you if:

→ Your child refuses most new foods you offer
→ You’re scared about their relationship with food
→ You’ve given up and just make what’s easy (no judgement)

Every week you wait is another week of mealtime stress.

It doesn’t have to be that way. ❤️

I’ve helped 1000+ families around the world break this cycle in the past decade and on Wednesday I’m going to show you exactly how.

📲 Link in profile to register. It’s free but it won’t happen again until the fall.

Can’t make it live? Register and I’ll send you the 48 hour replay.

Exactly 2 years ago to the day, I was in a very different place.

Rushing from my grandmother’s funeral to ER to hear every parent’s nightmare.

My eldest daughter’s pacemaker pocket was the size of a golf ball. And that’s when we knew it wasn’t just a cold.

Our 10-year-old had a staph infection that had ripped through her body. She was septic.

The emotional weight and medical journey that followed were unimaginable. It destroyed my nervous system and I didn’t know how we would ever heal from it.

Her emergency surgery fell on my birthday, so the date I can’t forget.

Flash forward to today and life looks completely different - in a way I never imagined.

My daughter (12 now) and I were back at the hospital this week. Not for surgeries, pacemaker checks, or bloodwork. But to participate in a brand new initiative for the SickKids Foundation.

She was selected as one of 10 patients to be part of something really special. (Details to come - I’m leaving that to the team!)

In two years, here’s what has unfolded:

- Sienna has healed completely
- She is a patient ambassador for SickKids
- I joined Patient & Family Experience Advisory Board at the hospital
- I’ve collaborated with SickKids’ feeding team, bringing my work on into the hospital
- We started the (our fundraiser that has raised $47,000 in two years)
- We’ve shared our story on and
- We’ve presented to the Board of Directors
- And now this new initiative (TBA)

Mentally, we are all doing really well. I think it’s because we found meaning in it. We became part of something beautiful and bigger than us.

My daughter said to me recently:

“Mom, how can something so terrible turn out to be something so great?”

I didn’t have an answer in that moment. But now I can see it clearly — she was learning resilience.

You are not failing. And your child is not stuck like this forever.

I’ve seen kids go from 3 foods to 30.
I’ve seen kids who refused fruit start eating mango, oranges, and berries.
I’ve seen kids with ADHD, ARFID, and sensory challenges make real progress.

I’ve lived this personally too.

My own daughter was underweight, and we were facing the possibility of a feeding tube. Today, she eats over 100 foods and is thriving.

So no, your child is not too far gone.
No, it is not too late.
And no, this does not have to be your forever.

With the right support and the right strategies, change IS possible for your child too.

If you need help knowing where to start, comment ✨ POSSIBLE ✨ and I’ll send it to you.

Hosting or heading to a holiday party? 🥂 Try this 👇

The festive drinks.
The potlucks.
The celebrations.

I genuinely love this time of year (it brings people together).

But because I work in wellbeing, I also know what usually happens…

📌 Research shows adults tend to gain 1–3 lbs over the holidays — and most of that weight isn’t lost afterward.

Not because of one meal…

But because of many micro decisions from late November to NYE.

Here are a few simple shifts:

1️⃣ Grab a small, nutrient-dense bite before the party

It stabilizes your blood sugar.
You won’t walk in starving.
You’ll make better choices.

2️⃣ 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲.

Match each alcoholic drink with water.
Top cocktails with sparkling water.
Opt for low-sugar wine (e.g. “dry” wine).
Or better yet, have a non-alcholic night.

Why? Alcohol + sugar interrupt restorative sleep

3️⃣ 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

Begin the next day with water (and lemon).
Start with fibre + protein instead of pastries.
Most importantly...return to your normal routine.
No guilt or self-sabotage.

Holiday celebrations should energize us — not leave us depleted.
