The Juicie Bits is a kitchen-table podcast about the kitchens that saved my life.

After the death of my husband, Lee, I took my world down to the studs and looked under every piece of sheetrock to understand who I had been and who I was becoming. What followed was a year of grief, travel, and quiet pilgrimage. I scattered his ashes and gathered pieces of myself from the pyramids of Teotihuacan to ancient Celtic megalithic sites across the Iberian Peninsula.

Along the way, kitchens became my compass. They were places where simple meals brought structure and comfort when life no longer made sense. Travel with me through the kitchen stories that shifted, saved, and reshaped my life.

In each episode, I share honest stories from the road. I did not walk this year alone. I shared the journey with an incredible circle of people: psychologists, dreamers, chefs, artists, cowgirls, and fellow creatives. They join me at the table to share their wisdom, grace, and delicious adventures as we explore how we feed ourselves through life's hardest seasons. Each episode leaves you with one simple dish and one small juicie bit to move through your own journey.

Because the truth is on the table, and the Juicie bits, the good stuff, lives at the bottom of the pan.
