E + E Podcast Episode 96: Raising Body Confident Kids with Author and Pediatrician Dr. Whitney Casares

Listen to Episode 96

 

ABOUT THE EPISODE

Our conversation today is with Dr. Whitney Casares, board-certified pediatrician, CEO and founder of Modern Mommy Doc, and author of the new book for children My One-of-a-Kind Body. Her book is a wonderful tool to encourage body confidence in kids and can be a valuable resource for parents! 

As new moms, we are shifting the narrative away from the diet culture from the past and learning to love our bodies. We want our kids to feel the same and to view all bodies as special. Dr. Casares will walk us through how to share that ideology with our children by identifying ways we can lead by example - through our actions and self-talk. 

If you’re feeling overwhelmed with your own body-confidence journey while navigating motherhood, Dr. Casares offers encouraging and practical tips. We close today’s episode by touching on body confidence in pop culture and highlighting tools you can add to your parenting toolbox and body-confidence journey.

If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @modernmommydoc, @raising.body.confident.kids, and @expectingandempowered. As we like to say, knowledge is power, and we just really want to give more people the information that they may need on their parenting journey!
