Guest Bio If we’re not careful, or unaware, the meals we create and meet around each day can start to feel like a chore instead of pleasure. And while I can certainly attest to sometimes feeling the drudgery of preparing a dinner each night, my guest today will tell you that dinnertime is not really about the food at all; it’s about the connection.   Description Brianne DeRosa is the co-author of the new book Eat, Laugh, Talk: The Family Dinner Playbook, and she’s is the Content Manager for The Family Dinner Project, a nonprofit initiative that started in 2010 to champion family dinner as an opportunity for family members to connect with each other through food, fun and conversation about things that matter.    Mentioned in this Episode https://thefamilydinnerproject.org   Eat, Laugh, Talk: The Family Dinner Playbook https://www.amazon.com/Eat-Laugh-Talk-Family-Playbook/dp/1641701641     Connect with the 60 Mindful Minutes podcast   Web: https://kristenmanieri.com  Email: Kristen@kristenmanieri.com    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/60MindfulMinutes Instagram: @kristenmanieri_
