Hey friends,
If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying the weight of your child’s health on your shoulders—running from doctor to doctor, searching for answers, trying everything under the sun just hoping something will work—you are not alone. And today, I have someone who gets it in the deepest way.
I’m talking with the incredible Sarah Michelle Boes—nurse practitioner, entrepreneur, and heart warrior mama to her daughter, Meadow, who was born with severe heart defects. She knows what it’s like to live in hospital rooms, to fight for the right care, to feel like no one has the answers… and she also knows what it’s like to come out on the other side. We talk about navigating medical challenges, the unexpected eczema struggles that came with it, and the power of trusting your intuition as a mom.
This episode is full of so much hope and wisdom, and I can’t wait for you to hear it!
And if you’re looking for real, tangible guidance to help your child heal, I want to invite you to a LIVE Q&A session on March 6th at 10 AM MST (9 AM Pacific, 12 PM Eastern). This is your chance to bring your biggest questions and get the answers you’ve been searching for. Go to eczemakids.com/join to grab your spot. You don’t have to do this alone—we’re in this together.

Hi Friends,
In the wake of the red dye ban, it’s more important than ever to take a closer look at the food chemicals hiding in your family’s diet. Red dye and other artificial additives have long been linked to inflammation, behavioral issues, and chronic health problems, especially in kids with sensitivities like eczema.

In this episode of the Eczema Kids Podcast, I’ll share 4 actionable tips to help you avoid these sneaky additives and make choices that support your child’s healing from the inside out.
From decoding tricky labels and avoiding misleading terms like “natural flavors” to making simple, kid-friendly swaps, I’ll show you how to keep harmful chemicals off your plate without sacrificing convenience or taste. Whether you’re prepping meals at home, packing school lunches, or tackling grocery store aisles, these practical tips will empower you to take control of your family’s health. Together, let’s move toward a cleaner, more nourishing way of eating that gives our kids the best chance to heal and thrive.

If you’re ready to take the first step toward lasting healing, this episode is for you. Let’s work together to transform your child’s health.
