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 52: Cooking as Self-Care: Routines, Trends & Seasonal Tips
In this second part of my conversation with Kari from Food Friends, we dive deeper into seasonal cooking and everyday meal rhythms. We talk about easy summer hosting ideas, smart farmers market shopping tips, freezer-friendly staples, and what it means to create a “food flow” that fits real life—whether you’re single, partnered, or cooking for a family. We also share thoughts on food trends like glow soup and small luxuries, and how intentional cooking can be an act of self-care and connection.
