Welcome to Living Well (or Trying To), I’m your host Janet—wellness enthusiast, yoga pose outfit-checker, and someone who’s maybe 73% thriving at any given moment. On this show, we talk real-life wellness: the messy, the mindful, and everything in between.
This is a place where we love our veggies and meditation, but we also love a good night out dancing, pizza and ramen, and the occasional tequila shot…or 3. And we know that 5am mornings and 20-step routines are for some people, but not I - because I’m a night owl, but I can be healthy too. ‘Living well’ means different things to different people - what does a life well lived mean to you? Let’s dig in together.

Episode 51: Easy Summer Cooking and Hosting Advice with Chef Kari
I sit down with chef, writer, and podcaster Kari from Food Friends to talk about the art of seasonal home cooking and hosting with ease. Kari shares how she went from cooking Midwest basics to becoming a personal chef in LA for families, producers, and even Barbara Streisand. We get into favorite summer recipes, simple farmer’s market ideas, tips for planning stress-free dinner parties, and building lasting client connections through food. Whether you cook by feel or need a recipe in hand, there’s something here for everyone looking to bring more intention—and flavor—into their home kitchen.
In this episode: Food Friends: Home Cooking Made Easy / @foodfriendspod
