Today,  the Lazy Genius is moving us into the kitchen. Yep, you heard that right, friends! The Lazy Genius (and self-proclaimed professional permission giver) Kendra Adachi joins me on the show today to share how when she couldn’t find a book like The Lazy Genius Kitchen for herself over the years, she decided to write it! 

Listen in as Kendra tells us how she wants this book to help the cookbooks you already have, the items in your kitchen, your rhythms, basically all the kitchen-related things in your life, ALL OF IT, to work better for you.

Kendra’s book is described not as a cookbook but as a lifeline. Trust me when I say you absolutely don’t want to miss out on this one! 

Kendra Adachi went to college to become a high school English teacher but instead became the Lazy Genius, passionately and candidly sharing how to stop doing it all for the sake of doing what matters. 

Listen in to learn more about:

• The 7 things Kendra does every Sunday to prep for her week + the noise of extra in our kitchens (well, our lives, actually).
• How to tell if a recipe is any good. Fun side note here: it has to do with salt, heat, and fat… you’re welcome for that info!
• Asking the magic question… What can I do now to make something easier later? 

Favorite quotes:

1. It doesn't have to be all or nothing.

2. Take away the things that are in the way of what matters to you. It is a great thing when we remove the noise and focus of what does matter

3. You have permission to love something even if you think other people will think it’s silly.

4. Ask yourself the magic question: What can I do now to make my life easier later?

5. We all have different priorities and we need to not apologize for them. When we learn to accept that, we’ll all be a lot happier.

In this episode I answered this question:

1. I am a new entrepreneur and need a mentor. How do I find one? (58:26)
