Intro

Involving your whole family in learning about health, healthy cooking and healthy living is one of our greatest privileges. It’s our opportunity to make sure the next generation knows how to navigate a world with so much going against their health. We have the chance to leave a legacy of health for our kids. Part of that legacy is making sure our teens have an adequate skill set that they can take with them into adulthood. My guest today, Katie Kimball, has been focused on teaching families and kids cooking skills and healthy habits for many years - and I’m excited that she’s now here joining me on the show to share her tips! You’ll gain helpful strategies to get your teens more involved in the kitchen, strategies to deal with picky eaters and strategies to foster health-confidence in your family. Katie is also offering you a generous free gift, which you can find in the show notes after you listen!
