In this episode of The Untethered Podcast, Hallie Bulkin sits down with Kelly Wenger to explore the evolution of a pediatric feeding clinician. Kelly shares her raw and relatable journey—from the initial overwhelm of entering private practice as a new mother to finding her voice as a confident feeding specialist.

The conversation dives deep into the "confidence gap" many clinicians face when dealing with complex feeding cases. Kelly discusses how shifting to an integrative approach and moving therapy into the home environment has not only improved patient outcomes but has also allowed for a more profound connection with parents. Whether you are a clinician looking to level up your skills or a business owner wanting to build a stronger referral network, this episode offers a roadmap for professional and personal growth.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN:

✔️ The Confidence Catalyst: How specialized training like Feed the Peds transforms clinical uncertainty into expert action.

✔️ The In-Home Advantage: Why the home environment is the "secret sauce" for the generalization of feeding skills.

✔️ Integrative Thinking: How to look at a child holistically to address multiple developmental needs simultaneously.

✔️ Building Your Network: Strategies for creating a robust referral circle that supports your practice growth.

✔️ Empowering Parents: Navigating the shift in parental awareness and how to effectively educate caregivers on their child’s needs.

✔️ The Ripple Effect: Understanding how one clinician’s education creates a wave of positive impact across an entire community.
