{13.3} How My Fussy Eater Started Eating Broccoli Again (No bribing, pleading or threats involved)

Raising Healthy Mothers

If you’ve got a fussy eater in your family, you know the struggle: endless refusals, creative sneaking tactics and a constant feeling of guilt that it's somehow your fault. In this episode, I share how my son went from a firm “no” to broccoli for four years to finally enjoying it again –without a battle.

The story isn’t just about broccoli, though. It’s about the ripple effect that happens when we, as mums, prioritise ourselves. I’ll talk about the surprising moment that sparked his curiosity and why putting my own needs first in the kitchen made all the difference.

You’ll walk away with:

• A new perspective on fussy eating that feels less stressful.
• Encouragement to focus on your own food joy and energy.
• The realisation that parenting wins can sometimes come from the most unexpected places.

Plus, I’ll share how my January Reset can help you feel more energised, in control, and ready to tackle mealtime challenges with a fresh mindset. This is your last chance to join, so don’t miss out!

Join the January Reset here by 16 January, or join the waitlist for the next one.
