Feeding Picky Eaters Is Hard with Shira Gluck
April 12, 2018
This episode, I’m welcoming Shira Gluck; a registered dietitian and a mom to help me launch a new segment on the show called Let’s Get Real! I’m showcasing the challenges and successes of real parents regarding nutrition. Hopefully, you will see that you can overcome the difficulties we all face when feeding our children. Shira is here today to specifically talk about feeding picky eaters.
As a full-time mom of three selective boys, she used her training as a dietitian and managed to make food into a more positive experience for her sons and herself! She still finds time to see clients on a case-by-case basis and is passionate about helping people achieve their full wellness potential in wholesome and sustainable ways.
