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 32: The need to get it right

Welcome to Family in Focus with Wendy Schofer, MD, Episode #32.

The need to get things right was trained into me. I was rewarded for high scores in school. In medical school, I learned the "right way" to be healthy.

Ha.

All of it.

In today's episode, I discuss how that spilled over to raising my kids, and I share an easy way to practice making it right.

I've opened my doors for 1:1 coaching to help you parent without the food and body drama. Don't miss this opportunity to help yourself and your whole family. It's at www.wendyschofermd.com.
