Savory Experiments with Jessica Formicola

What’s for dinner? The question that is asked around the world in every singlefamily!  For me personally, it’s enough to make my head spin.  I know many of my listeners struggle with dinner planning, options and variety.  Thankfully we have people like Jessica Formicola to help us navigate meal decision paralysis! My guest is founder of Savory Experiments, former Psychotherapist, food critic, TVpersonality and mom to two, Jessica Formicola. She is helping us to reframe how we can be in the kitchen and ditch the “I need to make dinner,” to “we are making dinner together” and cook together as a family.  In fact, our kids are more likely to eat what is served if they helped create it! We are talking about using the 4’s in cooking which include, salt, seasonings,sauces/swaps, and the 5 senses and how they enrich your meals and level up thetaste.  What I love about Jessica is that she doesn’t see anything wrong with frozen pizza ormac and cheese in your meal rotation!  She makes them too, does drive thru on busy nights and wants you not to feel bad if you need a quick meal solution!  Hint, for all you busy families, she suggests casseroles to make your life easier!   For Jessica’s free 8 day course on how to be a better home cook, you can find thelink in the Parent Toolbox  www.parent-toolbox.comAbout Jessica Formicola Jessica is a former psychotherapist turned food critic, cookbook author, food judge, TV personality, recipe developer and owner of Savory Experiments.

Parents! We CAN change the world, starting with the way we're parenting our future. Up to this point in history, children have been seen as less than and parented in a way that uses power over a child. Most of us were parented in this way but there is a shift in thinking about the way we raise our kids. Parents don’t feel good about using shame, blame, criticism, punishments, and even rewards, to get their kids to listen. Parents are wanting a different way because they know from their own childhoods this type of parenting hurts and leaves us with scars we take with us through our adulthood. Each one of my episodes is designed to help you navigate the difficult journey of parenting but in a way that is more peaceful and intentional. I’ll show you how to get your kids to listen and cooperate without yelling, punishments and rewards. I’ll show you how to understand your own feelings and those of your kids. My intention is to bring you to a place where you feel connected with your kids and yourself (we often get lost when we become parents!). Tune in weekly for all the inside tips, tools and tricks I teach my private clients to help you build the family you always wanted, and to become the parent you always envisioned you would be. I promise to provide you with fun and entertaining content that will leave you seeing your kids and your reactions in a whole new light! Please make sure to share the episodes that give you goosebumps, and leave you feeling inspired! I am always grateful for every person who subscribes, leaves a review and rates my podcast 5 stars.
