Description

Let’s be real—most of us are exhausted, hungry, and one bad “what’s for dinner?” away from losing it.

In this episode of Lead Like a Girl, we’re talking food, travel, and the life-changing magic of meal prep. We swap hilarious travel stories (including the meals that didn’t quite land), dig into why comfort foods hit us so hard, and share how family recipes connect us across generations. Then we get practical: simple meal prep strategies that actually save time, cut stress, and keep your week running smoother. This isn’t about being perfect—it’s about making food work for your real life, with more laughter and less overwhelm.
