We often think of eating as a simple matter of willpower, but Cammy explains the fascinating (and sometimes scary) science of how highly processed foods hijack a developing brain’s dopamine system. More importantly, we discuss how our own ”parenting patterns”—like the ”clean your plate” rule or using treats as rewards—can accidentally set the stage for emotional eating later in life. In this episode, you’ll discover: The ”Why” Behind the Hunger: How to tell the difference between a growth spurt and emotional soothing. [01:42] The Boredom Trap: Why today’s digital world makes it harder than ever for kids to sit with discomfort. [05:47] The Power Struggle: Why ”policing” the kitchen usually backfires and leads to secretive eating. [22:08] Actionable Strategies: Small, ”baby step” shifts you can make in your home environment today to help your child rewire their relationship with food. [30:43] The Secretive Eater: How to bring up the topic of hidden wrappers without causing shame or guilt. [25:38] Cammy’s biggest takeaway might surprise you: the first conversation you need to have isn’t with your child—it’s with yourself. [35:28] If you’re tired of the kitchen being a battleground and want to help your child develop a healthy, lifelong relationship with food, this episode is for you.
