Real talk: school breaks are hard on parents. If you can relate, we see you. It doesn't matter whether you work, stay home with your kids, or some combination of both...
It doesn't matter how much you love your kids and want to spend every fleeting moment with them...
School breaks shift our routines, put our flexibility to the test, and often involve outside-the-norm activities that can quickly zap our energy.
When we're put under this kind of constant, low-level stress (or high-level, since we're being real here), it's easy for our food and self-nourishment to be pushed to the wayside.
As dietitians who are also parents, we get it. Really. It's hard for us, too. (Turns out having a ton of nutrition knowledge doesn't suddenly make you a super human who has extra hands, time, and patience in a day.)
That's why a HUGE part of nutrition therapy is finding solutions that fit into your real life - your chaotic schedule, you last-minute change of plans, your days that feel impossible to coordinate.
Because we want you to live that full, messy, wild, wonderful life. And flexibility with food makes flexibility in life possible.
