Episode 9 - Picky, Picky (Eater): An Interview with Pediatric Dietitian Rachel Rothman

Episode notes:

Lee Ann falsely stated that Portland Public Schools is doing Limited In-Person Direct Instruction (LIDI) when is is actually called Limited In-Person Instruction (LIPI). Apologies.

Katie’s fesses up to wanting to talk to a pediatric eating expert for her own reasons.

We all acknowledge that you can’t force your children to eat or sleep, both of which are necessary to survival and overall happiness. Dang.

Rachel shares with us some of the ways to bring joy back in to eating when trying to get kids to try out new foods.

We learn why parents and families might work with a pediatric dietitian - when to reach out and what the experience might look like.

Lee Ann celebrates getting a functioning oven, sometime in the (hopefully) not-so-distant future.
