This is a conversation I know you're going to love. It's one of my favorite conversations that I have here on the podcast because it's deep and raw and honest. And I love getting to see that side of people. And I just know that you're going to love it too. I'm chatting with Kristen Cook. And if you're on TikTok, you've probably seen one of her videos.

But don't worry, she's on Instagram, too, if you're not on TikTok.

Kristen describes herself as a plus-size mom creator, speaking facts about the hectic,

lovable chaos of raising kids, dealing with body issues and anxiety, and just overall big sister vibes for all the ladies

trying to make sense of having our S-H-I-T together.

This is the Mama Nose Nutrition Podcast.

I'm Casey Barnes, mom of two registered dietitian in Dallas, Texas, and this podcast is a safe space for chatting mom life and struggles feeding your kids.

Today's episode is in that mom life category.

This is so exciting. For those of you who are listening, I know you can't see either of us, but I also can't see Kristen. So we have a little bit of a blind first podcast date today.

Kristen, so if people are on TikTok and they are parents, I feel like they probably have seen some of your videos, but can you just tell

people like who you are and what you do? Absolutely. My name's Kristen Cook. So I'm on primarily

TikTok and I'm starting to dabble over to Instagram a little bit. But yeah, I just, I have a lot of

stuff in my head when it comes to parenting and the funny stuff, the bad stuff, the good stuff.

And I love sharing it with people because you feel very alone and isolated.

I feel like as a parent.

So, and woman stuff.

Just anything uncomfortable, I feel like needs to be let out there.
