Is mealtime a battle in your house? Are you second-guessing your nutrition while breastfeeding or wondering if your picky toddler is actually getting enough? This episode is going to be your new best friend.

Sports dietitian and postpartum wellness expert Val Warner sits down with Dr. Liz Daniels — a board-certified pediatrician AND registered dietitian — for a judgment-free, practical conversation about feeding babies, toddlers, and whole families without the stress.

Dr. Liz brings a rare dual perspective that makes this episode unlike anything else in the mom wellness space — part medical, part nutrition science, entirely real-life applicable.
