Learn how to spot the signs early before harmful patterns take hold.
The conversations we have today can shape a child’s self-worth for life.
When certain conversations feel too big (for us big people), Beyond Body Talk gives you the skills and language to start them with confidence.
Whether they’re just starting kindergarten or preparing for graduation, we all want the children in our care to feel safe speaking their own truth about their feelings and their struggles.
Yet when conversations about food, body image, and self-worth get complicated by pressures from the larger community, as parents or guardians it’s far too convenient to fall back on quick reassurances. We often change the subject. We think small.
💟 Children are forming beliefs about their bodies, and their sense of self-worth, from a very young age. Those beliefs solidify long before we realize it.
💬 They’re absorbing subtle messages everywhere from the playground to the cafeteria, from close relatives to social media. Mixed messages cause confusion. Some are more vulnerable to suggestion than others.
🧠 Beyond Body Talk is designed to help parents and guardians shape confidence, go beyond confusion, and foster open, judgement-free dialogue so no one needs to struggle in silence about their brain pain.
Everyday tools to shape confidence around food, feelings and noisy ‘Body Talk’.

What People Are Saying
“In collaboration with our PAC, and with a clear intention to support meaningful parent education, we invited Penny Greening from Reframe Voices to begin an important conversation about how disordered eating is framed in today’s context.
From the outset, Penny’s passion was evident. Through storytelling and thoughtful reflection, she invited us to consider how our own journeys and experiences shape our children’s futures in a variety of ways, including their relationship with food.
At the heart of her deeply personal presentation was a powerful reminder of the importance of stepping into our children’s lives, opening dialogue, being present, and truly connecting.”

“My childrens’ elementary school PAC asked Penny to come present to a group of parents about eating and body image. The presentation was engaging, full of quality information, and provoked thoughtful conversation and self-reflection.
I would recommend Penny to any parent group or school community if they’re proactively seeking to understand more about eating disorders.”
