Clip of my Baby’s First Solid Foods talk today for

Of course, babies need ENOUGH calories that mainly come from mother or formula milk.
Here’s my take on the question ‘Do we need to push solids?’ 🧡

If you face food refusals of any kind, please reach out or join my free master class tomorrow.

The more I focused on the ‘bad’, the narrower my vision became, and the harder it was to nourish balance. That’s when mealtimes became a battleground, filled with
tension, negotiations, and endless discussions. It was a constant push and pull between good and bad foods, losing balance in every way. I felt like a defeated wellness warrior - frustrated, angry, and everything in between.

Conversations with my almost 6 years old about chocolate and health. We were on our way to football when he said ‘Mom, yesterday my team mates all said that chocolate is bad for our health.’ It was invitation to dive deeper, to question, to listen, and to tune in with what matters most 🧡 In my opinion - him not feeling bad about chocolate. Him not thinking that something bad will happen when we eat chocolate. Him thinking that our health is somehow something we can control.

How would you talk about all this? Let me and others know, these conversations are so hard, so real, and so life changing 💜

🧡 Speaking up for those who cannot speak. Because they are too young. Because the are silenced. Because they are not always as loud as other signals.

Paradoxically, those sho speak up are listening more than those who are just loud.

I too was once silenced. I still carry those loud
voices in me. These voices can still make me feel small, but I get better and better differentiating my old noise from my own voice. And it’s from that understanding of how that feels, combined with privilege and power, that I am speaking up. More and more. For those who are still silent or silenced, probably a combination of both.

Please don’t feel bad for your silence. You too will stand up one they and say ‘I will be heard. I need to be heard. I want to be heard’. And this is where that magical, soft revolution from within begins. A revolution against oppression. Oppression in the name of health. Oppression against the most healthy thing we can do - speak up for ourselves, and by doing so, for those who cannot speak yet.

I did not need to replace the caffeine.
I needed to replace that vibe that my cup of coffee gives me. That energy. That experience. That feeling of focus. That feeling of warmth, that everything will be fine. That sound the espresso machine makes. That ritual. That predictability. I needed to replace all that 🧡 That’s how I’m flowing more and more from 4 to 2 espresso’s. Not with drinking it less, only wanting it more, feeling naked without my experience. I do it by tuning into that experience that my cup of coffee gives me, and take action from there.

⚽️ May the best team win! But also, let’s not make food a competition, where macro nutrients and food groups are ranked from ‘good’ to ‘bad’ 💜 Why? We need them all! Foods don’t compete with each other, they complete each other. And of course we can FEEL from within how we balance things out. But finding balance is not about cutting out whole food groups. That would be un-balance.

🧡 I wonder, what’s your take on this?

My feed recently showed a ‘What my toddler eats in a day’ video, promoting a high-protein, low-carb, and moderately fruits and veggies diet for young kids. Think of it as a
mini version of the caveman diet, thriving on controversy, pseudoscience, and food privilege.

While I could debunk many nutritional arguments, I won’t do that here and now. What struck me most was how naturally my old Instagram account - with the likes and
loves from my past self - guided me to this content, normalizing what I now categorize as disordered eating.

Small question. If you found out that the food you hate most was hidden in a cake you just love, served by the people you trust the most?

🧡How would you feel?
🧡What would you think?
🧡What would you do next time?

Diet culture makes us do things we wouldn’t do. But we do it anyway, because we hope it will take us to good places. But is that so?

Here’s part 2 of my take on this question - ‘Sofie, I’m still insecure about our boy and him eating too much. He can really eat big portions, more than us even. What should I do?’

Diet culture makes us believe that something bad will happen when our kids (don’t) eat that. That’s why we often push, and pull, or lie. Not because it feels right, but
because it feels less ‘wrong’ than not eating broccoli.

💜What if we can make free choices again? How would that feel? Many parents tell me that this feels liberating. It IS LIBERATING. But it’s also very hard. Especially when a free choice is a choice that feels morally wrong. But if our free choices feel wrong, how free are we really? Our free choice should never be wrong (or right). It should just be.

What do you think? Speak up, please, and help other parents. 🧡
