The intersections of nutrition, health, and social justice in pediatrics with Dietitian Leah Hackney
47m · PublishedIn episode six of the Food Confidence Podcast we talk to Leah Hackney, a Registered Dietitian and Certified Specialist in Pediatric Nutrition. Leah shares how she came to be an Intuitive Eating and HAES (Health At Every Size) -informed practitioner, and how she applied these philosophies when working in an in-patient setting at a Children’s hospital. She talks about how she has seen weight-stigma show up in the clinical setting, and how parents and caregivers can advocate for the health of family members if and when a weight concern is brought up. We also talk about our own experiences in using positive food and body language as a way to help foster health and wellbeing. Finally, Leah shares some perspectives on the intersections of health and social justice, which we learn is can often be a factor that is overlooked in both individual and public health initiatives.

1h 3m · PublishedIn this episode we talk to Erin of Food Science Babe, a food scientist with over 10 years of experience in both the conventional and organic food sectors. Erin shares myth-busting information on Facebook and Instagram to help her audience learn about food production, marketing, and agriculture. We talk to Food Science Babe about some hot-topic issues: conventional vs organic food, genetic modification, and the misinformation and fear-based marketing around these topics. As a food scientist, Erin is able to speak to the different types of genetic modification, the safety of foods on the market, and some of the environmental concerns that we often hear around farming practices. The objective of this episode is for our listeners gain an understanding of another side of the food conversation that we don’t often hear in mainstream media or marketing.

Raising Sexually Healthy Kids with Jennifer Wiessner, LCSW, CST
47m · PublishedIn this episode, we talk to Jennifer Wiessner, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Sex Therapist who has a practice in Southern Maine. In addition to her practice, Jennifer is a speaker and writer, and hosts workshop for parents and caregivers on raising sexually healthy kids. In the episode, she speaks about the current state of sexual education in the country, why sex education is a human right, and ideally should start at home. From Jennifer's years of work in this area, she realized that the majority of adults did not get comprehensive sexual education from caregivers as children or teens. Despite it being a potentially uncomfortable conversation for both parents and child, Jennifer believes that it is a necessary and navigable topic to discuss with children as they grow. We talk about what and how to use language to convey positive body and sex information, as well as educating kids about consent, and aligning sex education with your family values.

16m · PublishedWelcome to the Food Confidence Podcast! The first episode is an introduction to the show, how the podcast came to be, and the funny story of how the co-hosts became friends and colleagues. Andrea is a Registered & Licensed Dietitian, and Jenn is a Certified Health Coach and Chef. Although they both work in health fields, their educational backgrounds are quite different; Andrea coming from a traditional evidence-focused dietetics education, and Jenn coming from the wholistic health and culinary nutrition world. After meeting under circumstance having nothing to do with food, Jenn and Andrea kept in touch and eventually discovered they were very similar in their philosophies and approaches to health & wellness.
The mission of this podcast is to inform and empower parents and caregivers in raising food and body confident kids. The podcast will serve as a platform to interview experts and discuss the ways in which we can all help the next generation become more resilient, healthy, and happy. Thank you for listening!
