Hello and Welcome to the Redwood Wellbeing Podcast, where each week I am dedicated to supporting parents on the journey of nurturing their child's healthy relationship with food and their body image.

Through practical, everyday strategies and tips, I help you to become empowered to make a lasting difference in your child's wellbeing journey.

In this episode I'm joined by my old friend Hannah, who has been on a journey of healing her poor body image since childhood. She shares with us;

• Her insight into how we can make supportive choices as parents so that our children hopefully don't go down that same path of body dissatisfaction.
• How she felt like she had to hide her struggle from her friends and family and portray confidence instead.
• How throughout her childhood there were constant messages about bodies that made her feel unworthy in hers.
• How she began to rebel with food.
• How her insecurity impacted her relationships
• The mental and emotional work she has done to begin healing, and the inner dialogue shifts she is still working on.
• Her hopes for the future as she continues to heal.
