I joke in this episode that my guest is like the next Donna Hay, albeit the New Zealand version. And I really do believe that to be true. Jokes aside, it is an absolute privilege to have Vanya Insull join me in conversion for the Podcast today as we chat about food, midlife, entrepreneurship and more. Vanya is a Kiwi food blogger and content creator at VJ cooks where she shares her delicious recipes. She has a bestselling cookbook called Everyday Favourites and a membership called Cooking with VJ where she creates monthly recipe ebooks to give her members inspiration and confidence in the kitchen. Her inspiration and humble nature shines through in this conversation as we chat about:
Catching the entrepreneur bug after working for food magazines and how moving to a small town encouraged a hobby to grow into a business one upload at a time.
When you are in a hurry to get your identity back after children as how that shifts and changes as you travel through your years.
Prioritising movement and incorporating that into a busy routine.
Creating a successful digital business before 40 and what starting on the midlife journey looks like and what that means for her.
Vanya is an inspiration to hundreds of kitchens, while also being one of the hardest working and most driven women I’ve ever met. Her website is filled with delicious recipes for all sorts of occasions. I encourage you to take a look at www.vjcooks.com and follow Vanya on Instagram and Facebook.
