Welcome to The Motherload—let me help you carry it.
A warm welcome
Hey friend,
Many of you signed up for my free cooking fundamentals course (which I hope you got a lot out of!) and I want to let you know about something new I’m really excited to share: The Motherload.
I see you.
You’re working, raising babies, Googling “easy dinner ideas” at 4:57 PM… again.
You want to feed your family well and feel like yourself at the end of the day — not just the cook, the scheduler, the snack lady, the everything-all-the-time.
That’s why I created The Motherload.
You’re officially part of the crew now (yay!) Here’s what that means:
As a free subscriber, you’ll get:
— The Littles Lunch Plan: every Sunday: toddler lunch ideas that are realistic, allergy-aware, and won’t make you cry into a bag of stale Pirate’s Booty (just me?).
— Ryan’s Midweek Save: A Wednesday pick-me-up with a little pantry rescue (easy ways to use what you’ve got) and some mom-to-mom talk to remind you you’re already doing enough. Midweek is when the wheels come off in my household (at least), and if you’re anything like me, you’ll need a boost.
Want more? Paid subscribers unlock:
— A real-life, Monday–Friday dinner plan with meals your whole crew will eat
— A grocery list that doesn’t require 14 tabs or your last nerve
— A weekly note from me — part pep talk, part permission slip — because you deserve one
— Perks like live Q&As, behind-the-scenes, and kitchen chats
No pressure. No perfection. Just flavorful support from someone who gets it.
If your mental load is maxed out, this is your soft place to land. Let me take care of dinner this week.
👉 Upgrade to paid and breathe a little easier, babe.
With love (and leftovers),
Ryan
