191. Dinnertime Sanity Saving Secrets with Linda Lederman

How many times have you scrambled to make dinner after a stressful workday followed by chauffeuring kids around to miscellaneous afterschool activities? You go to the trouble because sitting down for a family meal, even just once a week, is important to you. But instead of feeling appreaciated and being rewarded with a pleasant time at the table, everyone sits around in silence, shooting down your attempts at conversation with 1 word answers. If this sounds at all familiar, today's guest, Linda Lederman is here to help us  --- Linda’s cooking skills were so bad, her own family banned her from cooking when she was a teen. Happily, her skills have dramatically improved. She’s a lawyer who reinvented herself as a kitchen confidence coach.She has over 1000 cookbooks, is a graduate of Rouxbe Cooking School and the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and has countless cooking courses from the International Culinary Center and Natural Gourmet Institute under her belt. As owner of Balaboosta’s Secret she helps busy women with meal planning, prep and cooking lessons as well as coaches them on how to serve dinner with side dishes of clever conversations with their family.  Whether you’re a beginner cook or a well-seasoned pro, Linda’s got your back.  Check Linda out on:Website: https://balaboostassecret.com/ FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/easyweeknightdinnerforbusymoms FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/BalaboostasSecret LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/linda-lederman-1411b27/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/balaboostas.secret/ Freebie: https://balaboostassecret.com/easy-one-dish-dinners/.How to Cook Everything Cookbook: https://a.co/d/3UHctb0 Hedbandz game: https://a.co/d/3UHctb0  Subscribe, rate, and review this podcast and get a copy of our Weekend Survival Guide as a thank you!
