Di McHardy (@_mamas_meals) on Resilience, Not Being Type A or B, 2 Under 2, a Postpartum Career Crisis, and the Love of Cooking

And so the tradition of having wonderful conversations with wonderful people continues! Di McHardy (who you probably already follow @_mamas_meals) is just the kindest, coolest, most easy-going lady. I will never get sick of speaking to parents who have seen the need for a new resource and created it themselves. Di has done that this year by self-publishing her cookbook 'Family Cooking'. You can see Di's work at her website, here! Family Cooking would be such a great Christmas present if you're looking for one for someone in your life. I say it in the episode, but I am cooking adverse, and I have loved looking through this book and have done a shop to try out some recipes (watch this space - I'll keep you updated). This episode was actually just lovely to record. I felt like I was talking to someone I have known for years and years! I am so lucky that this is (kind of) my job.
