Listen Later

You're tired, starving, and the last thing you want to do after your shift is spend three hours cooking. Been there, done that. In this quick, no-BS episode of Shift Happens, I'm walking you through my exact step-by-step process to get a full week of meals prepped in under an hour — without living out of soggy Tupperware or eating dry chicken and plain rice.

We'll talk about:

  • How to plan your week's meals in 10 minutes or less

  • My go-to "one cooks, one bakes, one chills" method to multitask without chaos

  • The meal prep mindset shift that actually saves your sanity

  • Why it's not about eating perfectly — it's about staying prepared when life (or your shift) hits the fan

If you're sick of overcomplicating meal prep and want to stop relying on vending-machine dinners, this one's for you.
