The Alarming Truth About Our Health: Why Moms and Kids Deserve Better (and What I'm Doing About It) | Episode 18
We’re in the middle of a health crisis—and it’s hitting our kids and moms the hardest. In this episode, I’m sharing some truly alarming statistics about the state of our physical and mental health, from skyrocketing rates of anxiety and burnout in moms to the overwhelming impact of poor nutrition and overstimulation in kids.
But this isn’t just a wake-up call—it’s also a turning point.
I’m thrilled to share a BIG announcement about the future of this podcast and how I’m combining Little Bites for Healthy Lives with my work supporting moms so we can approach health holistically—together. Because the truth is, we can’t raise thriving kids if we’re constantly running on empty ourselves.
If you’ve been craving real, doable solutions that support both you and your little ones, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
