Summary

Get ready to finally learn how to fold in the cheese, because author Rachel Floyd is joining me this episode to discuss her hilarious new cookbook Tastes Like Schitt: The Unofficial Schitt's Creek Cookbook and share how her ADHD led her to find sustainable success in a field she’s always been passionate about. Rachel and her sister Hannah started the parody cookbook as a fun way to stay connected during Covid, and over time their unique idea snowballed from a self-published online resource to a traditionally-published cookbook lining the shelves of independent bookstores, all because they were brave enough to follow through on their dreams. Much like Moira Rose, Rachel lets her curiosity guide her and isn’t afraid to dream big, and I hope her boldness inspires you to channel your own inner Moira, outrageous wigs and all.
