Does meal planning ever feel like more work than it’s worth? Between endless recipes, complicated grocery lists, and trying to keep everyone happy, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed before the week even begins. But what if one small shift could take away that pressure and make meal planning easier?
In this episode, I’m unpacking the “variety myth” — the belief that you need completely new meals each day to be healthy. The truth is, you don’t. Variety matters, but not in the way most of us think. And when you change your definition of variety, you can simplify your meals, save time in the kitchen, and still eat healthy in a way that actually works in real life.
You'll learn:
🔸 Why daily variety isn’t necessary to maintain a healthy, balanced diet
🔸 The real benefits of variety in your meals and how to achieve it without overwhelm
🔸 Simple meal planning strategies to make your week less stressful
🔸 How reducing decision fatigue makes healthy eating feel more sustainable
🔸 Practical ways to rotate meals so you keep things fresh without spending hours cooking
If you’ve ever felt weighed down by meal planning or guilty for not making enough different meals, this episode will take the pressure off. You’ll walk away with a simpler way to meal plan, more confidence in your food choices, and more time for the things that matter most.
