Two episodes in one week! Look at meeeee! This is my way of apologizing for the long break between episodes. So all is forgiven now, yeah? 

In this episode, I talk about how what started as a way to center myself (and, let’s be honest, keep me off the streets and out of the wine bars) turned into something way bigger. I didn’t realize it at the time, but every solo dinner I made was laying the foundation for the life I have now.

Cooking for myself became more than just something to do to pass the time. It was how I learned to listen to what I truly needed, how I built self-trust, and how I started making decisions that aligned with the life I wanted, even when I didn’t fully know what that life looked like yet.

To my surprise, asking “what do I want for dinner?” was really me asking “what do I want for myself? For this life?” And that’s when everything started to shift and evolve in ways I still kinda can’t believe it has.
