How to Get Dinner on the Table When You Don't Feel Like Cooking | Caroline Chambers (Bonus Episode)

If the question, "What's for dinner?" feels like the most exhausting part of your day, this episode is for you. In this conversation, Diane sits down with cookbook author and recipe developer Caroline Chambers to discuss how we can dramatically reduce the mental load of feeding our families - without sacrificing delicious meals. Rather than chasing elaborate recipes or constantly searching for new dinner ideas, Caroline introduces the concept of recipe minimalism: simplifying your approach to meal planning so dinner becomes one less decision you have to make. From creating a repeatable meal rotation and maintaining a master grocery list to stocking a pantry that works for you, Caroline shares practical systems that make cooking feel easier - even on your busiest days. She also offers refreshing permission to embrace shortcuts, feed picky eaters without making multiple dinners, and let "good enough" be exactly that.

Connect with Caroline: Website Instagram Book: What to Cook When You Don't Feel Like Cooking: Make It Fast About Caroline |Caroline Chambers grew up in the kitchen on her mom’s hip, learning how to cook in their Winston-Salem, North Carolina, home. Her professional food career began in her early twenties when she worked as a chef and caterer. After a stint in a professional test kitchen, Caro struck out on her own as a freelancer, developing recipes for a host of publications as well as brands such as Boursin Cheese and Kim Crawford Wine, and in 2018, she published her first cookbook, Just Married. In 2020 - at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic - Caro began sharing her recipes and connecting with home cooks on Instagram, and launched her newsletter, What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking, which flew to the top of the Substack charts; her podcast, So Into That, followed in 2023. Caro's latest cookbook, What To Cook When You Don't Feel Like Cooking, was released in August 2024.

Whose Definition of Success Are You Living? | Justin-Jones Fosu (EP560)

What if the life you're chasing isn't actually the one you want? In this episode, Diane sits down with speaker and author Justin Jones-Fosu to explore the subtle difference between chasing success and creating a life of meaning. Inspired by the timeless fable of the tortoise and the hare, Justin's newest book, Stop Chasing, Start Creating, challenges the cultural narrative that fulfillment comes from achievement, recognition, or constantly proving ourselves. Together, they unpack why so many of us spend our lives pursuing someone else's definition of success - and how that pursuit often leaves us exhausted, disconnected, and wondering why "more" never feels like enough. Justin shares practical ways to move from external validation to internal alignment, embrace purposeful work, and intentionally create a life rooted in contribution rather than comparison.

The Hidden Ways Shame Shapes Your Life | Jeff Golden (Bonus Episode)

For those that are new around here, I release bonus episodes that serve a niche part of my audience, so if this content is something that doesn’t fit what you’re looking for, check out the other episodes that dropped this week or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation that you don’t want to miss! ------------------------------------------- Shame has a way of convincing us that we're too much, not enough, or somehow fundamentally flawed. Often, it operates quietly beneath the surface, shaping the way we think, relate to others, and move through the world without us even realizing it. Joining the show for the second time is author and teacher, Jeff Golden to explore the hidden ways shame influences our lives and how we can begin to loosen its grip. Drawing from his book, Reclaiming the Sacred, Jeff explains why love, wonder, and presence aren't qualities we have to earn - they're already within us. The real work, he suggests, is identifying the barriers that keep us from experiencing them. Together, they discuss how shame often takes root in childhood, the messages reinforced by culture and social media, and the behaviors that can signal shame is at work beneath the surface.

[REPLAY] Being Present IS Winning | Sarah Bragg (EP187)

In this day and age, it can be difficult to truly feel present in motherhood. We have so many roles we’re juggling, schedules to manage, self-care to maintain (not to mention remembering little details - such as what to add to the grocery store list or that school pickup is early on Friday.) The question is: how do we manage presence when it feels like we’re pulled in various ways? Joining me today to talk through this topic is author, Sarah Bragg. Sarah wrote about this topic (and more) in her recent book, A Mother’s Guide to Raising Herself. Today we’ll be discussing how to cultivate presence: how can we challenge ourselves to be more present in the moment without needing to document everything on Instagram/social media? How we can be more present as mothers, wives and friends? And how we can teach our children to cultivate presence in their own lives? About Sarah |Sarah Bragg is a popular podcast host, communicator, and author. You can find her on iTunes hosting the podcast Surviving Sarah. She is also the author of A Mother’s Guide to Raising Herself: What Parenting Taught Me About Life, Faith and Myself. She is also a wife, mother of girls, and a creative entrepreneur. Sarah is a master at brewing coffee and helping others survive well right where they are. Sarah and her family reside in Tennessee.

The Conversations Christians Avoid (But Need Most) | Mike Novonty (Bonus Episode)

For those who are new here, I occasionally release bonus episodes designed for a specific part of my audience. I have listeners from all kinds of faith backgrounds, and this episode is shared from a Christian perspective. If that’s not quite what you’re looking for today, feel free to explore the other episodes released this week - or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation you won’t want to miss! ------------------Some of the topics that most deeply impact our lives are often the ones we're least willing to talk about. Shame, addiction, anxiety, politics, and confession can feel too uncomfortable - or too risky - to bring into the light. But what if healing begins with simply being honest? In this episode, Diane sits down with pastor and author Mike Novotny to discuss his book, Taboo: Topics Christians Should Be Talking About But Don't. Drawing from his own story of childhood pornography addiction and recovery, Mike shares why secrecy keeps us stuck while confession creates space for freedom, healing, and authentic community.

Raising Globally Minded Kids: What Every Family Can Learn About Simplicity, Generosity, & Compassion | Petra Kooman

It's easy to become consumed by the rhythms of our own homes, schools, and schedules - but what happens when we intentionally widen our perspective? In this episode, Diane sits down with Petra Kooman, Public Relations Principal at Compassion International, to discuss how raising globally minded children can transform not only the way our kids see the world, but also the way we think about enough, generosity, and intentional living. Drawing from more than a decade of work raising awareness around global poverty and human trafficking, Petra shares how proximity to stories of hardship has reshaped her own approach to leadership, motherhood, and simplicity. Together, they explore practical ways families can cultivate empathy without creating fear, expose children to global issues in age-appropriate ways, and discover that minimalism isn't just about owning less - it's about making more room for compassion and generosity.
