Mealtimes can feel like a daily battle—especially when your child has very limited food preferences. But what if picky eating isn’t about defiance… and there’s a better way to approach it?
In this episode of All Abilities, No Filter, we sit down with registered dietitian Jessica Setnick, who specializes in eating disorders and highly selective eating. Together, we break down what’s really going on beneath the surface when children—especially those with autism and other disabilities—struggle with food.

- The connection between autism, sensory needs, and food preferences

- Practical strategies to gently introduce new foods
- How to encourage healthier eating without creating power struggles
Whether your child eats only a handful of foods or mealtime has become overwhelming, this episode will give you real, actionable strategies you can start using immediately.
