Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken, in an honest and open conversation about learning how to build a passion into a business and create more confidence in the kitchen with Laney Schwartz. Laney Schwartz is the founder, creator and recipe developer behind the food blog Life is but a Dish. She creates everyday meals for everyday people and is on a mission to help busy home cooks gain confidence in the kitchen, create simple and delicious meals and cook without being tied to a recipe. Laney lives in Los Angeles, California with her two daughters and husband and loves a kitchen dance party! Laney is giving us motivation, advice and steps we need to get started and pursue our passions in the second half of life & some cooking advice.

 

We are going to dig deep into the details of Laney’s journey into her second half of life, she discusses going from being an athlete, to discovering a love for teaching kids, to eventually creating a food blog and giant social media platform and sharing her recipes and tips for being more confident in the kitchen with the world.
