Family in Focus®
Are you feeling stuck around your child’s eating, weight, or health? Are food struggles or mixed messages about “doing it right” creating stress in your home? Family in Focus is a podcast for parents navigating family health, especially when concerns about food, body, and emotional well-being start to strain relationships at home. Hosted by Dr. Wendy Schofer, the pediatrician who helps parents lead meaningful change without harm, this podcast approaches family health in a very different way, by prioritizing connection, trust, and emotional health over control or pressure. Family in Focus centers parent-led shifts that actually last. Conversations explore how change can happen without shame, how emotions shape health behaviors, and why protecting the parent-child relationship is essential to supporting children’s well-being. This is a space for parents who want to support their child’s health without sacrificing connection along the way.

Episode 26: Three Things That We Were Never Taught

Welcome to Family in Focus with Wendy Schofer, MD.

As a physician and parent, I've learned a lot about kids, nutrition, and growth. But these are three things that I wasn't taught in school about weight - and are now oh so important to help now amidst concerns about weight and how to help our kids.

1) Our children's weight is not a fault/blame game,
2) Weight is NOT the problem, and
3) It's possible to be healthy at a wide range of weights.

C'mon over to www.wendyschofermd.com to check out the upcoming group programs, or drop me a line at wendy@wendyschofermd.com to let me know what you are learning about how to support your family - AND how to start with 1:1 coaching support now.
