In this episode, I'm sharing my conversation with Katherine Kehrli, founder of Community Loaves, former Associate Dean of the Seattle Culinary Academy, and 425 Magazine's 2026 Citizen of the Year.

In this episode, Becky is joined by Christina Conrad, creator of Foodie With a Life and her newest program, Supper Club. Christina shares how a simple dinner can become an easy rhythm for connection, without the pressure of perfect food, a perfect home, or doing it all yourself. From sharing the work to starting small, this conversation is a reminder that gathering can be simple, meaningful, and worth making room for.
