Most moms are asked this dreaded question at least once a day - what’s for dinner? This can be a serious cause of stress, especially when you don’t have an answer. The whole thing can be quite overwhelming.

Whitney’s guest this week is Nakita Attard Vassallo, a mealtime strategist who helps busy working moms go from stressed and scrambling to wing dinner daily –- to being well-prepared and organized while feeding their family good food and saving time and money.

She opens up about her early struggles with daily meal decisions and shares the turning point in her life when she decided to focus on meal planning and batch cooking.
