    Episode 79:  My wishes for 2026

    In today's episode, I'm doing things a bit differently. Rather than diving into a specific nutrition topic, I'm getting personal and sharing my five wishes for 2026—not all food-related, but all close to my heart as a parent and paediatric dietitian. I'm talking about the things that I'd love to see improve/change with our world. It's not all heavy, just honest and real, and hopefully makes you feel less alone in the chaos of feeding kids and managing life. Thank you for being part of this community. Whether you're dealing with a picky eater, trying to navigate nutritious foods for your fussy eater, or just doing your best with quick easy food whilst working full-time, I see you. Here's to a healthier, kinder 2026 for all of us. Episode Highlights Factory Farming & Better Meat Choices Why I'm passionate about reducing factory-farmed meat consumption and practical ways to swap meat for legumes as protein sources for children. The Ultra-Processed Food Problem My son's school holiday eating confession and why Australia's food standards are failing our kids compared to countries like Japan that prioritise childrens nutrition. Ditching Comparison Culture Why parents—especially mothers—need to stop beating themselves up and comparing themselves to others when they're already doing a brilliant job. Creating Less Noise Practical thoughts on reducing the overwhelming daily noise from social media, emails, and constant decision-making that leaves us all scrambled. Being Present with Family My plan to be more intentional with family time, compartmentalise work better, and stop trying to juggle everything at once in 2026.

    Episode 78: An Interview with Amy Whiteford from Healthy Little Foodies

    In today's episode, I'm joined by Amy from Healthy Little Foodies—a recipe creator, food scientist and mum whose practical, flavour-packed ideas have helped millions of families feed their kids with more confidence. I first discovered Amy years ago and was instantly struck by how doable, nutritious and genuinely child-friendly her recipes were. So I wanted to sit her down, pick her brains, and uncover the thinking behind her incredible approach to children's nutrition. We talk about how her global upbringing shaped her love of food, why feeding children feels harder than ever, and the simple routines that keep meals calm, predictable and enjoyable—even with a picky eater or a fussy eater in the mix. Amy also shares why patience in the kitchen matters more than any technique, what she wishes every parent understood about feeding, and the story behind her most unexpectedly successful recipe of all time. If you're looking for grounded, real-world guidance from someone who understands nutritious foods, quick easy food, and the realities of children's nutrition, this conversation will absolutely support you. Episode Highlights The early influences How travel, family and exposure to diverse cuisines shaped Amy's approach to food. Why feeding kids feels harder today The impact of social media, advertising and overwhelm on parents' confidence. The power of routine for fussy eaters Why predictable mealtimes matter for appetite, calm and better eating. Patience in the kitchen How involving kids—even when messy—builds skills, confidence and long-term acceptance of nutritious foods. The recipe that surprised everyone The savoury muffin that became her most-visited recipe worldwide.
