What does this have to do with nutrition, Sofie? Let me get straight to the point. I think many of us have done real, meaningful work around food and bodies. At least on the outside, as we still might feel uncomfortable about our bodies on the inside. Many parents can now spot harmful comments about bodies - and not just notice and question them, but also stop them from infiltrating our kids by speaking up and setting boundaries around how we talk about bodies. This is hard work - and I encourage everyone to do it.
