Last week I got the opportunity to do something really fun! I got to spend about an hour and a half with a group of about 6 moms talking with them about nutrition for their young athletes. It was super casual, there was wine, we talked about nutrition, we talked about parenthood in general. It was fun for everyone in attendance. 

This was a chance for me to share some foundational sports nutrition information specifically pertaining to children and adolescent athletes - things that I really wish all parents and their young athletes knew. It was also a chance for these moms to ask me any questions they had, whether they centered around my basic topics or not. We went into chats about everything from sports drinks and electrolytes to protein to meal, snack  & recipe ideas to kids’ attitude and relationship towards food at this young age. These moms had kids in a variety of sports at different ages and it was such a great discussion! 

I’ve had an idea like this in my head for a while now and, by chance, this opportunity presented itself and I finally got to make it happen! It was so fun and I got such positive feedback that I have decided to offer more of these! 

So, if this is something that interests you, here are the details…

Small group chats for parents of young athletes:

• 7 to 10 people per group

• 60 to 90 minute meeting

• Virtual or in-person (depending on location of host)

• $36 per person

• You will receive copies of our NEW Getting Started Guide and our Grocery Guide + additional resources that we think may benefit the group

• Please note: this is not a time to get detailed specialized nutrition recs or meal plans for your kiddos. However, you will leave with a good understanding of the general needs of your athletes, the different nutrition needs of young athletes vs adult athletes, and what products out there are better options for your young growing athletes

If you are interested in doing something like this with other parents, please let me know by completing the form HERE! You can create your own group with parents from a team, or it could be a group of friends who all have young athletes in various sports, or you can ask to be added to a group independently.
