I just jumped off a 1:1 call with @Steven Bornstein, and he's great! He's one of us, someone who just want's to give value and figure out the rest later. Steven is a dad who knows exactly what it feels like to hit 5pm on a weeknight with no plan, hungry kids, and the sinking feeling that you're about to cave and order something you'll feel guilty about tomorrow. He's been there. He figured it out. And now he's built a whole community to help other dads do the same. It's called Cooking Comfort Zone 🍳 And it's for any parent, but especially dads who want to stop surviving the 5pm scramble and actually start putting real meals on the table without losing their mind in the process. In his own words... 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗺𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁. 𝗪𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝘅 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁. Inside, Steven teaches his Speed-Batch cooking system... a practical, no-faff approach to meal planning that puts your kitchen on autopilot and cuts your evening stress in half. In just 14 days. No chef skills required. No hours in the kitchen. Just a simple system that means you stop dreading dinner and start actually enjoying those evening moments with your kids. And our favourite bit? 👇 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲. 🎉 Steven has set up the most brilliant little party! Great food, great vibes, great content, but he's the first to admit he's not the best at sending out the invites. He'd love to welcome 30 new members in the next 30 days. That's literally just one a day. One person, every day, who needs what he's built.

You might just save their Tuesday night. 😄

Sooo, I am going to REWARD the person who is 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟳 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱 ON FRIDAY at 16:00 GMT who is a non resident (because they have access to me anyway) with a 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝟯𝟬 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝟭:𝟭 session, where you can ask me anything at all. ...But only if you want to of course! If the winner does not wish to have this, it will be offered to the next highest on the board... The current potentials in the running are: @Cristal Vancarson @Aimee Jardon @Laura Williams, MBA, Ed.S @Lee-Ann Oelofse @Riley Saint @Mary Newton @Magalie Delisle @Suzie Kemper 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲..! Let's see how competitive you all are and how much you really want this! Good luck! I'm looking forward to getting to know you better and helping you in person soon. 😁

Wow, What a group of social butterflies we’ve got in here! 🦋 97% engagement is brilliant. Out of nearly 400 of us, only 12 people are keeping quiet. That is what community is all about. I’m absolutely buzzing! ☺️🌈🌞😁 Thank you all for being so active and bringing the energy in here. You are all amazing and I feel so grateful for the support you all show up and give each other. 🥰

I finally got my headshots done with Cristal Vancarson today and, she is magic! On her Skool community @Karin Crawford said, “Great photography. 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 @𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗺 𝗠𝗰𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴!! Genius!” and that pretty much sums it up! To put this in context, in the 52 years I have been on this earth, there has not ever been one photo of me that I am happy to post online. That's why up until now my current social profile image is an AI avatar of me. I thought I would pose a challenge with my dodgy squinty eye which seems to know exactly when a camera is pointed at at, and my elusive smile that normally looks like I'm constipated but she knows all the tricks in the book, and you just can’t NOT smile when in the presence of @Cristal Vancarson . So here is real, human me! I'm so pleased with my photos and she turned an event I was dreading doing and kept putting off into the highlight of my day. 🥰 Thank you so much for making it sooo fun, AND I even got a bonus portrait of me with my daughter that’s definitely going on the wall. When I said that to Cristal she said, “There is NO greater HONOR than for me to have a picture on the WALL in my client’s home.” You can tell she genuinely cares about the people she photographs. What I loved most is that this whole thing was done remotely from home, between my other calls, and was all wrapped up in around 40 minutes. No awkward standing around wondering what to do with your hands. Just a proper live session with someone who knows exactly how to bring the best out of people. She was also brilliant with my daughter. They say never work with kids or animals but Cristal orchestrated then both effortlessly! That is what Cristal does so well. She does not just take a photo. She catches a moment. She makes you relax. She makes it fun. And somehow she makes the whole thing feel easy, even when you thought you were going to hate every second of it.

No agenda, just a quick impulsive casual chat for anyone that wants to pop in and say hi or have any questions for me.
