Episode 76: Breaking Generational Chains of Diet Culture with Amy Connell

Season #6

In this episode of the Joyful Health Show Kasey Shuler talks with Amy Connell about breaking the generational chains of diet culture with our children. Amy is a weight-neutral personal trainer and nutrition coach. She is the author of two books and the podcast host of Graced Health for women over 40 and Lessons to My Teenage Self for young women. Amy is also a mom to 3. In this episode she shares from her personal experience as a mom and from her professional experience working with countless women to heal from diet culture.

In this episode we discuss:

  1. The biggest challenge Christian moms face when it comes to raising the next generation to be free from diet culture
  2. The 4 stages of parenting and how we can support our children in each stage
  3. How to repair damage caused by words and attitudes we now regret

We pray this episode blesses you no matter what season of parenthood you’re in. Whether you’re a yet-to-be parent, a new parent, a teen parent or a grandparent, it’s never too late in Christ to break generational chains of diet culture.

As Exodus 20:6 promises, we know that God will show his steadfast love to thousands of generations of those who love Him and keep His commandments.
