Growing Up with Dr. SarahAuthor: Dr Sarah Adams
Looking for a place to educate you and your family to live your best lives? Welcome to Growing Up with Dr. Sarah, where we take on - and tackle - general health and wellness, parental issues, family matters, and real life challenges that affect every single one of us. Being a pediatrician, while having a mother's perspective, has given me unique insight and experience on what we all need to do better to live healthier, happier, and stronger as individuals...and as families. The success of the family starts from the top, and by helping parents by addressing tough questions and everyday concerns we can all benefit - parents, grandparents, kids, or anyone who cares for another. So join me and some of my special guests - physicians, nutritionists, fitness experts, community members, coaches, teachers, even kids and parents; and lets all make a commitment to Growing Up...together Language: en Genres: Health & Fitness, Kids & Family, Parenting Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

Let’s Talk About Weight... Or Should We? How Conversations About Weight Impact Your Kids
Monday, 28 September, 2026
Now that kids are back to school, families are getting back into routines. We're thinking about school lunches, afterschool snacks, sports, activity, sleep, and we're hearing a lot about protein, fiber, ultra-processed foods, childhood obesity, and healthy eating. At the same time, our kids are surrounded by messages about body size and appearance, and sometimes even well-intentional comments about weight, food, or someone's changing body can have consequences we never intended.On this week’s episode, we have pediatrician Dr. Chris Bolling on the podcast, one of our all-time favorite guests. We discuss food trends, dieting, body image, how to talk about weight within your own family, and so much more.
