Hosting sounds fun… until you’re knee-deep in oven timers, missing ice, and guests are already at your door. In part two of my How-To series, I’m breaking down what it really takes to host a party that feels effortless—and why the best ones are never about perfection.

My best friend Gladys (a.k.a. the hostess with the mostest) joins me to talk guest lists, menus, prep chaos, and the secret art of the Ghost Host. Whether you’re planning a dinner party or just trying to keep your plants alive before company arrives, this episode is your permission to do it your way.
