    What's For Dessert? with Cat Corchado

    When I think of the military, it's Forrest Gump type meals with big long tables, cocoa powder meals and carbohydrate heavy density. Cat Corchado proves me wrong. Cat Corchado shares the advantages and disadvantages of being a military kid and then joining the military herself. Tune in as Linda and Cat talk about:
    Military food and the misconceptions people might haveGoing overseas and experiencing many different foods, people and environmentsFrequently moving and carrying that open mindedness with her through adulthoodHer fondest memories around the world
    While moving around might not be everyone’s idea of a great childhood, it can provide wonderful experiences and adventures. Being in the military forever marks your identity and Cat has embraced all the opportunities it provides.
    This episode has now been transformed into a chapter of its very own inside the book series Stories with a Sunday Roast. It weaves together the memories that were shared during the podcast conversations with my personal experiences.

Heartwarming

This podcast is absolutely heartwarming. Linda has a way of steering a conversation that brings out the best in people. Memories come to the forefront and sharing them seems so effortless with her.
The conversations in this podcast will warm your soul making you think, “just one more episode and I’ll stop,” but you don’t. I can’t wait for future episodes in this series.

Beautiful, Meaningful Conversations

Linda is a natural interviewer and conversationalist. She gets to the “meat” of the topic (pun intended) and focuses on the heart of every story. I am also impressed by her research of each guest and guest selection. A definite must-listen!
