16. Back-to-School Fuel: Feeding Kids for Focus, Energy, and Health

October 01, 2025

In this back-to-school inspired episode of Let’s Talk Sht*, host Lisa Garrett gets real about the food our kids eat, at home, at school, and everywhere in between. From allergy testing fears to sugar-loaded cereals and sad school lunches, Lisa shares how small shifts in breakfast, lunch, and snacks can completely change a child’s energy, mood, and ability to thrive.

Through personal stories, like handing out water bottles on Halloween or recreating Egg McMuffins in her kitchen, Lisa makes a clear case: what (and how) kids eat shapes not only their health, but their focus, friendships, and future.

Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or someone who just cares about kids in your life, you’ll leave with practical, doable ways to make food your family’s best medicine.
