Our MOM CHAT episodes are special! What if moms recorded their conversations when they got together? There’s something wonderful about having casual conversations on a specific topic when out to dinner, having coffee, drinking wine or on a walk with other moms. We wanted to capture these conversations and share them with you. We brought together two of our cherished HER Circle members Maggie and Erica to have a casual chat on an important topic.

In this episode, we discuss the topic of Diet Culture. Erica and Maggie discuss their journeys in dismantling diet culture and its impact on their lives and parenting. Both friends stress the importance of modeling healthy behaviors, addressing neurodiversity sensitively, and using teachable moments to instill body positivity in children.
