Description

Today, Katherine and Shelley dive deep into a topic so many parents are curious (and often overwhelmed) about: how food can influence your child’s behaviour and ADHD tendencies.Shelley opens up about her personal journey with her eldest son—navigating low iron, gut issues, constant fatigue, and behavioural challenges—and how nutrition played a pivotal role in supporting his health and wellbeing. And Katherine shares her experience with Sunny’s big emotions and the rollercoaster of toilet training, giving another real-life glimpse into how food and nourishment can influence little ones in unexpected ways.With a blend of lived experience as mums and clinical expertise as nutritionists, we unpack the powerful connection between what goes on the plate and how it can show up in mood, focus, energy, and behaviour. From hidden food triggers to nourishing nutrients that support calmer, more balanced little bodies, this is a conversation every parent will want to hear.If you’ve ever wondered “Could what my child is eating be impacting their behaviour?”—this episode is for you.✨ This week’s sponsors ✨A big thank you to our sponsors who help keep these conversations flowing:🌿 Chief Nutrition – Wholefood snacks made from real ingredients, perfect for busy mums and families on the go.
