Hey Food Allergy Mama,

This is not an easy episode. To prepare for these episodes about food allergy myths and mistakes I’ve made, it means I have to to remember some of the worst times we’ve had with food allergies. Knowing that things I did (even though they were accidents) may have caused these situations, makes my heartache. The mom guilt is real. And exposing my incompetence to the world is hard.

Let’s just say I’m SO THANKFUL that all the situations turned out well and we can now just call these situations learning experiences.

Whether your LO has been newly diagnosed, or you’ve been at this a few years, I hope this episode helps you. And please know, I don’t share this to scare you. I'm hoping to show you that nobody's perfect and to help you learn from my mistakes.

I'm cheering for you!

Hey Food Allergy Mama,

You prepped. You planned. You walked into that oral food challenge hopeful—even if a little nervous. And then… it didn’t go the way you wanted. Your child reacted, the test was stopped, and now you’re left feeling defeated, frustrated, and maybe even scared for what this means going forward.

Mama, I see you.

I know how hard this is, and today we’re going to talk about it. In this episode we’ll get into the emotions that come with a failed food challenge, what to do next and how to reframe this so it doesn’t steal your hope. Because this isn’t the end of the story.

I'm cheering for you!

This episode is a little different than usual, but oh so valuable!

Today I’m sharing an interview I did with Heather Schalk Parenting on HER podcast, called The Toddler Toolkit. After the interview, I immediately asked Heather if I could share the audio with you on my podcast because it's PACKED with valuable information that I know you’ll love.

In this eye-opening chat, Heather and I talk about everything from food allergy awareness, navigating the playground, social events, and some surprising tips for school and playdates.

Yes, it’s a little longer than my usual episode, but stick with it until the end for a surprising tip about navigating birthday celebrations at school! Grab your favorite drink and a pen and paper and… let’s get to it!

I'm cheering for you!

Hey Food Allergy Mama,

When it comes to managing food allergies, it sometimes means that you’re doing it all alone. I recently went to the FAACT Food Allergy Influencer’s Conference. There was a session about the value of building a team approach to help make food allergy life safer and easier for families and patients.

I love this because a team approach is helpful and even essential.

So today, we’re breaking down the must-have members of your food allergy care team—some of whom you might not even realize you need!

Whether you’re just starting, or looking to fill in some gaps, this episode is packed with practical information to help you create the right allergy care team without missing essential support.

I'm cheering for you!
