Why Kids Should Be Barefoot More (and What to Know About Barefoot Shoes) with Andy Bryant | Ep. 140
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
DIVING DEEP into something most parents never think twice about… but definitely should: The shoes you put on your kid's feet are affecting their brain development, posture, and even how they move for the rest of their life. 👀
In this episode, I’m joined by Andy Bryant to break down why being barefoot matters, what’s actually happening in your child’s feet when they walk, and how the wrong shoes can quietly work against their development.
If you’ve ever grabbed a cute pair of toddler shoes without thinking twice… this might completely change how you shop moving forward.
In this episode, we cover:
- What “natural foot function” actually means
- Why the early walking stage (12–24 months) is so critical for foot development
- How nerve endings in the feet connect to brain development and sensory input
- Why being barefoot supports balance, coordination, and overall development
- The potential long-term effects of overly supportive or restrictive shoes
- How footwear can impact posture, hips, and alignment
- What to look for in a healthy shoe (and why toe space matters)
- The truth about barefoot shoes and minimalist footwear
- Should kids wear socks? What about snow boots?
- Is toe walking normal (and when should you pay attention)?
