Are you in a cooking rut?
Do you have cooking questions, and you just can't find reliable answers...when you need them? 

"This is my invariable advice to people: Learn how to cook - try new recipes, learn from your mistakes, be fearless, and above all have fun." ~ Julia Child

Whether you've been cooking for 6 months or 60 years, there is always something to learn.  

The problem can be staying inspired, finding reliable information (I've read loads of recipes with missing ingredients), and having a community of people to tap into for their expertise.

Well, come in from the cold, grab something to sip on, and get to know others in the same situation.  Imagine gathering around a country kitchen for a cup of tea and a chat.  That pretty much describes The Appetite for Life Cooking Club.

What is The Appetite for Life Cooking Club?

It is the membership site for Appetite for Life...but more.  It is a place to make friends, gather, share successes, and seek solutions when things don't go to plan.  It is a place that is safe and warm.  It is a place to laugh and have fun, all while cooking. 🍳

What Makes The Appetite for Life Cooking Club Different?

For many membership sites, you never really get to meet the owner.  Here, Jen is there every day, ready to answer your questions, join the discussion, and share her 40 years of cooking experience. 👋

At The Appetite for Life Cooking Club, You'll Find...

  1. A community of like-minded people.

  2. A private space free of commercials, ads, and a social media platform that has access to your stuff, meaning what you share stays here and will not trigger ads elsewhere, pop-ups, or suggestions.

  3. Resources, cookbooks, tested recipes, menus, and online courses specific to the question you have (or perhaps didn't even realize you had.)

  4. Something new...Cooking Coaching.  In the club, you have access to unlimited coaching to help answer your questions, problem-solve, brainstorm, or do whatever you need to gain more confidence in your cooking.

  5. Lots of fun and lots of inspiration!

  6. First preference, and discounts for special events and private Cooking Coaching.

Got Questions - Here's some we frequently hear.

How do I interact and engage on the site?

That is primarily up to you.  You can join in on the main Discussions page, asking and answering questions, sharing insights, etc.

There are also Topics that help you find conversations you are interested in easily and connect with people with common interests.

Lastly, you can use Member Chat to speak directly to members, groups of members, or just Jen.

How is the site monitored?

Great question.  In the age of flashy websites that gather your information so they can spam you with marketing and social media groups where you have to worry about scammers, this membership is a private group that is actively monitored daily by Jen.

You may have been in other memberships or social media groups where people get nasty or try to sell you stuff.  That behavior will not be tolerated in the Appetite for Life Cooking Club, and we work to create the opposite experience.  It is a place where you can come that is safe, supportive, and a true community of people.  Remember that country kitchen I mentioned above?  Well, that's what we're creating together.  

The other component is that the membership to the club is deliberately kept small and grown slowly so everyone can get to know one another. We attract kind and generous members.  I will not tolerate members only focused on self-promotion.  I want you to feel like you can come here to rest, relax, learn, and inspire others.  If that sounds like a place you want to be, consider joining us.

What Does the Appetite for Life Cooking Club Cost?

The cost of the Appetite for Life Cooking Club is not as expensive as you think.

Most membership sites cost $20 or more per month to join or over $200 per year.  I wanted to provide a safe, nurturing space that helps everyone build their cooking confidence.  Plus on many of those sites, the owner rarely shows up, has someone else monitoring it, or it is full of AI generated posts.  Not here.

This is a group of real people, with a real, and present owner, full of real-lived experiences.  It may feel as though there is a catch, but I can guarantee it isn't.  If you are interested in talking to an existing member, let me know and I'll set something up.

I'm always adding new items and recipes, so if you want to ask me about anything new, feel free to reach out.

I Give You Time To Get Comfortable​

What's also unique is that I add members gradually to the site, so the time to join isn't always open.  This allows me time to get to know you better and for you to feel comfortable in the group.

 

If you are interested and membership isn't available right now, join the waiting list.
