In this episode, I dive into the silent yet profound impact of emotional neglect on children and how it shapes their adulthood. Contrary to overt abuse or neglect, emotional neglect often flies under the radar, leaving lasting scars that aren't immediately visible.
I explore the intricate dynamics of parenting and the unintentional ways in which we may be failing to meet our children's emotional needs and uncover 6 significant consequences that emerge when signs of emotional neglect are ignored, painting a vivid picture of the long-term repercussions.
Join me as we navigate the complexities of parenthood, shedding light on the critical importance of recognizing and addressing emotional neglect for the well-being of future generations.

From deadly food allergies, intolerances, dietary restrictions related to health issues, faith, or lifestyle choices, food inclusivity is still not taken seriously. When we could be responsible for taking someone's life, we would think that the food industry would be held more accountable for doing their part in taking people's health seriously.
Heather Landex speaks on a professional level with her experience as a food inspector, and personally with her experiences with having to make sure she can eat when she steps out of her home. This is a conversation we all must be having now! People are not being fussy when their lives are at risk.
You can find many useful resources on Heather's website: www.heatherlandex.com
