Beata and Bita are back together to catch up on their summer food adventures, projects, and kitchen experiments. They chat about some of Beata's recent recipe testing, what she's been working on with BeatsEats cooking classes, and her growing YouTube channel.
Then the conversation turns to breakfast and how creating a few practical systems can make mornings easier, more organized, and more enjoyable. Rather than reinventing breakfast every day, they explore simple ways to build routines around flavorful, nourishing foods.
The big news of the episode is Bita's new functional cookbook, Power & Glow: Vibrant Persian Breakfasts to Prep & Go—inspired by bringing heritage flavors into breakfast recipes with plenty of nutritional value alongside each recipe. Beata interviews Bita about what sparked the idea for a breakfast cookbook, how her Persian heritage influenced the recipes, and why breakfast felt like the perfect place to explore these flavors as a health and wellness coach.
Bita also shares what the self-publishing process has really been like, including what she's learned along the way and what she's looking forward to as she continues her cookbook journey.
