Moving Every Three Years and Creating Community: Bri McKoy
Manage episode 386031272 series 2951280
Episode #79: Bri McKoy is a cookbook author and military wife who has moved seven times in 12 years. She went from burning everything in the kitchen to learning to cook as a way to create community. Have you ever wondered how to make good friends in a new city? Bri has repeatedly accomplished this task with some towns proving harder than others.
Bri's husband, Jeremy, has been deployed four times since they were married. Cooking helped Bri make friends while he was gone. She is now the author of a beautiful and helpful cookbook, The Cook's Book, Recipes for Keeps and Essential Techniques to Master Everyday Cooking. I am so inspired by Bri's story. I think you will be too!
We covered:
- the importance of creating a sense of community, even when you know you're moving again
- which cities were harder to make friends than others
- combating loneliness and building relationships
- actionable advice on reaching out to others
- not waiting for invitations
- learning patience in the kitchen and letting go of perfection as a host
