  • MOMENT | How to reduce the stress of mealtimes, with Rhiannon Lambert

    MOMENT | How to reduce the stress of mealtimes, with Rhiannon Lambert
    Oct 6 2025
    Motherkind Moment is your place for calm, connection, and a shift in perspective before the week ahead. This week’s Moment is with Rhiannon Lambert, one of the UK’s leading nutritionists and the bestselling author of The Science of Nutrition. Rhiannon shares such a refreshing message about food and children: we need to stop stressing. She explains how our little ones pick up on the pressure we put around food – and how that can actually push them further away from eating the things we want them to. Instead, Rhiannon shares practical, kind advice to help us take the pressure off and support a positive relationship with food. I loved Rhiannon’s honesty about her own experience – including the nights her little boy refuses dinner completely and the small, realistic swaps she makes to keep things simple. This is such a reassuring, non-judgemental conversation. A reminder that no child is a perfect eater, and that taking the stress out of mealtimes can transform not just what our children eat – but how we all feel around food.

  • MOMENT | Do you have a dysfunctional family? with Julia Samuel MBE

    MOMENT | Do you have a dysfunctional family? with Julia Samuel MBE
    Sep 29 2025
    Motherkind Moment is your place for calm and connection and a shift in perspective before the week ahead. This week’s Moment is with Julia Samuel. In this conversation, we discuss a subject that’s often difficult to talk about: what happens when our family is dysfunctional. We cover how to recognise if we’re operating in that environment. And how do we know when it’s time to set boundaries, or even take the painful step of cutting contact altogether? Julia shares her perspective on what truly defines a dysfunctional family, the emotional toll it can take, and the complexity of navigating those relationships. She reminds us that there’s no simple formula, every situation is unique, but that protecting our emotional and mental well-being sometimes means making tough, heartbreaking choices.
