Ep 24. Cooking Through The Tough Days

Its an emotional one this one…. I recently was thrown a curveball which knocked the wind from my sails. This episode is about cooking through the hard times, the lack of desire for food but still a need to provide a meal for the family and how this podcast community has supported me to take small steps towards better nourishment.
