Welcome to stop three of the Make It Easy Tour - Washington D.C. with Melissa Urban of the Whole30! Melissa and I started publishing books around the same time, and she has always been an incredible source of support and wisdom for me.
When I invited her to D.C. to be my guest and co-host for the evening, guess what I didn’t expect her to do? Manual Labor. In a matter of minutes after arriving, she grabbed a screwdriver, helped to fix my banner, moved dozens of heavy boxes of books and swag bags, and stayed with me until after 10 p.m. because the line was so long. But that’s exactly who Melissa is—she jumped in without hesitation, and truly saved the day. Scroll to the bottom for some behind-the-scenes photos after you watch the video!
I hope you enjoy our conversation, the audience testimonials, and our Q&A session!
