Thanks for this blast from the past--I subscribed after this (or otherwise missed it?) so I appreciate it! I don't have kids but am just starting to look at my disordered eating and how I've internalized diet culture, and the way you'd talk to kids is how I want to talk to myself. Like, what am I hungry for? And how much? And I can just have rice for dinner if I want! I know it's not exactly the same because I'm 38 😂 but this stuff is still really helpful, so thank you <3
Thank you for this! I think I can mostly tell from my tone (in listening) that I was still feeling cautious about saying some of these things, and that I'd say them less... softly now? It's funny, nothing is jumping out at me as "oh I wouldn't say that now!" but there's still a sort of subtle evolution. It may only be in my head!

Yes it absolutely applies to how we feed ourselves!
