The Family Fitness & Wellness Workshop

What if you could easily get your child to cut down on snacking and move more, without dieting or causing shame?

The Family Fitness & Wellness Workshop is a proven behavior change system for parents where you'll learn how to get your child to eat healthier types and amounts of food, increase their daily physical activity, and become more motivated and confident...all without any shame, embarrassment, or restrictive diets.

This Workshop is For You If You've Ever Felt Any of These:

You are super worried about your child's weight and unsure how to approach the situation without shaming them or causing an eating disorder.
You are frustrated that your child is not very active and find it hard to watch them play video games or scroll through their phones when they should be outside.
You are confused because the pediatrician expressed concerns about your child's weight but did not really explain how to address it.
You feel sad because your child has negative feelings about body and may have been teased by peers at school for being overweight.
You have your own issues with food, diet or exercise and you do not want your child to struggle the same way that you have.

You have no clue what the right amount of food is for a child and you are scared to say "no" if they are still hungry for seconds.
You feel annoyed that you keep buying fruits and vegetables but nobody in the house is eating them.
You feel guilty and responsible for your child's weight gain and are embarrassed to speak about it with a professional.
You are confused because you think your child eats healthy foods but they keep gaining weight (and your doctor has ruled out any medical reasons).
You are angry because you keep finding food wrappers in your child's room (or under the couch cushions) but also nervous about why they are sneaking food.
You have never really struggled with food or weight yourself, so it is hard for you to understand what your child is going through even though you want to.

Yes! One or More of These Sound Like Me

These are all very accessible steps for parents to take with their kids and themselves.

Dr. Fishman's ideas are manageable and easily incorporated, unlike rigid diets or suggestions that can leave parents feeling guilty for not employing them successfully.

Hers is an empowering approach that builds on strengths parents already possess.

As someone who works with parents, I would recommend this to my patients!

Parents - I see you.

I know how hard of a topic this is to tackle. I was an overweight child myself,

who went on to become a child psychologist

treating that very population

Stop searching on Google for the best diets for kids.

Get out of that awful Facebook parenting group telling you to just cut out carbs.

My workshop is based on over a decade of research and clinical work as an attending psychologist in the Optimal Wellness For Life Clinic at

Boston Children's Hospital.

This is not another one of those online coaching programs taught by someone calling themselves a health coach or nutrition expert.

“I loved the fact that this program is private, just for parents, and online. Nothing stings more than having your six-year-old sitting in a doctor's office being told they are morbidly obese and need to just eat more veggies."

Questions Other Parents Asked Before They Joined

Here are a few answers to our most common questions:

Will you provide meal-plans or a specific diet program for my child?

No. Parents often feel they want a specific meal plan to help their child lose weight - but the problem is that most kids will not eat half the things I would put on such a list! Plus, what if it's their birthday? What if they have a party? What if it's Halloween...and on and on. I provide you with behavioral strategies and suggestions about what types of foods will help keep your child full and energized. You will learn why diets are not a good solution and how to help your child have a positive relationship with food instead.

I am very busy and am not sure if I will have time to do this program. What is the time commitment?

This is a six-week program but it is entirely self-paced. Want to binge all the content in 3 days? You can! Want to do just 15 minutes per day? Fine. You can skip a day and dedicate the time when you have it. I will keep you on track with emails and check-ins throughout the six weeks.

You will have access to all of the materials and videos for 3 months after the course opens. You will be able to download all the tools, trackers and tip sheets to keep forever. After 3 months, you will no longer have access to the video lessons. If you need more time to watch the video lessons, you can enroll in the course again.

How do I access the videos? I am not great with technology.

When the course opens, you will receive a username and login by email. Just open the workshop and watch the videos. It is simple and easy. There are clear instructions about how to download your worksheets. I have designed this workshop to be accessible and stress-free.

Should my child take the workshop too? They need to learn these things.

This program is for parents. The reason I do not have a workshop for children is because they all have very different learning styles and abilities to understand information. If you want to share a video with a child, you certainly can, but it is also OK to take this entire course without your child ever knowing.

I am too excited to wait. Can I start now?

The next workshop starts on January 1, 2022. I stay very involved and connected with you throughout the program, which is why this is not an automatic course that anyone can start on any day. The six-week plan is based on small steps at a time and I will guide you the whole way. I limit the amount of participants in each group so that I can stay high touch and provide support for everyone enrolled.

What is the refund policy?

You can try the workship risk-free for 7 days after the course begins. If you decide it is not for you, simply send me an email and I will refund your tuition, no questions asked. Your access to the materials and videos will end at the time of refund.

Is there a Facebook group for participants?

No. Although we have offered Facebook groups in the past, many parents felt they wanted to be more anonymous while taking this course. We do not promote posting children's health issues publicly on the internet. You may have seen other Facebook groups where parents post photos of their children and ask for help. We do not agree with revealing this type of information on Facebook. What you post will be out there forever, and your child does not necessarily need to see that down the road.

What if I have questions while I am going through the program?

I am here for you every step of the way. There are several ways you can ask questions during the workshop.

1. Weekly Q&A sessions. I will send out a survey at the beginning of each week where parents can post questions anonymously. I will then answer everyone's questions in a video session that will be recorded and accessible to everyone by the end of each week.

2. Post comments on the modules. At the end of each learning topic, you will be able to post a comment about the material. Here you can post a question to be answered by myself or other participants in the group.

3. Just send me an email. You will be getting lots of emails from me supporting you throughout the program. These are not bots. It is actually me and I see every response you send. Just reply to any of my emails if you have a question. If it is something I can answer quickly by email, I will. If it requires a longer answer, I will present it in the weekly Q&A video.

If you're thinking "this sounds great, but I'm still not totally sure" keep reading...

Give The Family Fitness & Wellness Workshop a 7-day risk-free shot if any of these outcomes excite you:

You will have a better understanding of WHY your child is so hungry all of the time so you never have to say, "How can you still possibly be hungry?" again.
Your child will be moving more, which will improve their overall mood and even help them sleep better.

You will be able to identify possible underlying causes of weight gain that have nothing to do with what your child is eating.
You will be armed with the right words for talking about body size without shaming your child, so you no longer have to ignore the issue while secretly worrying that you need to do something about it.

Can you really afford to sit back and wait for your child to do this on their own one day?

Even if you made just one small change from this workshop - you will have already improved your child's health far more than doing nothing.
