Honestly — "good cook" is not the right question. Good ingredients make good food. Give yourself some grace. Even if your first attempt at roasting parsnips doesn't taste as good as mine, it is still real food and it can absolutely be consumed. We are using quality ingredients, which means things taste good even when you are learning. And you will taste your cooking getting better across all three sessions. That is the whole point.

Each thing we cook will have a natural adjustment built in. If I use butter, you use ghee. If I use potatoes, you use sweet potatoes. My sauce might be thicker because I used dairy. Yours might be thinner with a note of coconut because you used coconut milk. They are both sauces. They will both be delicious. We are not going for perfection here — we are going for real food in your fridge that you actually want to eat.

We will be cooking with healthy animal products — organic, pasture raised, local where possible. You are absolutely welcome to join for the container, the community, and the skills. Just know that meat and animal products will be featured in each experience.

Each session we cook two proteins, one sauce, and two vegetable dishes — in quantities you can mix and match. If you are cooking for one, expect real food options for three to four days. If you are cooking for a family of four, we scale up so you eat well that day and still have extras. This part of the experience invites your own curiosity and creativity — you get to decide how you use what you make. And yes, you can absolutely freeze extras at the end if your fridge is looking a little overwhelmed.

There is grace built into every moment of this experience. Maybe during the dance break you are still cutting your carrots — and honestly, your fingers can dance with the knife at the same time. Maybe while I am reading a poem you are sliding your braise into the oven. Some things we make will not be fully done by the end of two hours — a braise takes time, a slow roast takes time. You can finish it later that night, pop it in an Instapot, or use a slow cooker. And if you miss a section entirely, the replay arrives within 24 hours so you can hop back in and cook through what you missed. This is priced at $67 because I want you to feel relaxed and chill about all of it — not stressed that you missed one dish. I also stay on at the end of each session to guide anyone who needs a little extra time.

Yes. And you can always reach out to me by email to share what is not working and I will make adjustments to support you.

On YouTube you still have to decide what to cook, find the recipe, follow it step by step, and spend the entire time annoyingly drying your hands on a towel every thirty seconds to press pause. And that person is almost certainly not offering spirited nourishment alongside their cooking instructions. Here we are together in a real container, cooking multiple things at once that become multiple food options by the end. You do not need to find recipes. You do not need to plan a single thing. You just show up with the groceries and after an uplifting two hours you have real food cooked. And I know from experience — when you do something once with your hands, you feel wildly more inspired to do it again on your own. Which means you could do the exact same thing we did together on Saturday morning on Wednesday night and have another few days of real food in your fridge. Just like that.

Yes! Just enter your person's name and email address at checkout instead of your own and the confirmation email and shopping list will go straight to them. Caring is sharing. Thanks for looking out for your girlfriends. And honestly — wouldn't it be so fun to do this alongside a friend? Like a book club, but instead of reading the same book you are cooking the same things for three weeks and then getting to talk about it. Someone make this happen please.

Yes. This will continue to be offered in three week sprints. You will have the opportunity to purchase the next round before this one ends. And I read every single email — if you have feedback or ideas about how to make this experience work better for you, write to me.

Also — if you want to go deeper beyond the Cook Along, I am building a higher level program for women who want to radically shift their bodies through tracking real health data and overhauling their kitchens entirely. Reach out to get on the waitlist!
