In this episode of Don’t Feed the Fear, host Dr. Whitehouse sits down with Lisa Rutter, the founder of NNMG Food Allergic Families (originally No Nuts Moms Group), one of the largest online support communities for food-allergic families.
Together, they explore the power of connection in navigating the challenges of food allergy parenting. Lisa shares the inspiration behind creating the group, the emotional and practical struggles families face, and how peer support can reduce isolation, anxiety, and trauma responses. They discuss the role of online communities in advocating for safer schools, inclusive social experiences, and emotional resilience for both parents and children.
