The Intentional Table
Feeding kids isn’t just about what’s on the plate - it’s about raising them to feel confident, capable, and at peace with food and their bodies.
The Intentional Table Podcast is here to help you break the cycles of guilt, shame, and mealtime stress so you can raise kids who eat well and feel good about it.
Hosted by Nicole Cruz, a registered dietitian and mom of three who has coached thousands of parents, this podcast gives you the tools, structure, and mindset shifts to create a positive, empowered eating environment at home.
With guidance, compassion, and strategies that really work, you’ll feel more confident and less stressed while supporting your kids through 'picky' eating, 'overeating', struggles with sweets, and everything in between.

7 Lessons I've Learned About Feeding Kids This Year
As the year comes to a close, many parents naturally start reflecting... what felt good, what felt heavy, and what do they want to change moving into the new year - new systems and routines, projects to work on, changes with the kids...
In this episode, I'm breaking down seven lessons or themes that stood out most from recent conversations with parents. We're talking about what actually made the biggest changes with food and how one parent said "Our whole life has changed."
You’ll hear why big change rarely comes from one “right” decision, why the overall feel of food in your home matters more than any single moment, and why support, reflection, and community play such a big role in helping families move forward.
And spoiler alert: Your child doesn't need to be fixed!
As you head into the new year, it’s an invitation to pause and ask:
How does food feel right now and how do I want it to feel moving forward?
