    What I wish my parents knew: This teen's unique perspective on food allergies

    Send us a text Meet Hemali, a junior in high school who turned a curious question about her food allergy journey into a helpful tool that helps parents of newly diagnosed kids navigate their journey more smoothly than her own initial journey. Reflecting back on her own experiences, she asked herself, "What do I wish my parents had known when I was diagnosed with food allergies?" Taking this question many steps further, Hemali built an online place for new food allergy parents to learn from experienced parents about all sorts of diagnosis and lifestyle topics, while collecting the best resources available online to help support their education. Her website can be found at k12allergies.com or you can follow her on Instagram (@K12Allergies). Hemali is very passionate about increasing food allergy awareness in her hometown of Northwest Arkansas as food allergies are on the rise, and there is still a lot of negativity associated with them in schools (hence her emphasis on K12). After many years into the journey, Hemali now sees her food allergies as a key part of shaping her life for the better.  She wishes that others might also start thinking about the condition as an opportunity to grow and learn rather than just a hurtful disease that completely hinders lives.

    Think like a restaurant: This foodie teaches us to eat out safely with food allergies

    Send us a text Do you wish you could skip the awkwardness of going out to eat and talking about your food allergies but still have the confidence to eat safely? Kayla King is a certified nutrition coach and past restaurant manager who gives us the right language to understand how the kitchen works…the difference between the line, flattop grill, front of house, back of house and even some nuanced words where restaurants hear something differently than what we mean to say.  Kayla was diagnosed with celiac disease at 9 years old and always struggled with disordered eating and food anxiety growing up. She loves traveling and eating out and overtime started to challenge these beliefs by learning how to eat out safely. She now uses that knowledge to empower others to eat out through her app MyMeal. MyMeal helps people with food allergies find safe restaurants and menu items to eat. Her vision is transparent eating for all and she loves to educate others on how to use knowledge as power. Listen to the role plays, how to finesse the awkward conversations, avoid the common mistakes and order like a pro - speaking the language of the kitchen and removing any confusion along the way between the customer and the restaurant staff. This is an episode you’ll walk away and say, Wow I learned a lot of hacks and will be changing my approach from here on out. Enjoy.
