Coffee Breaks are 30-ish minute chats over Substack LIVE with the paid members of this community. It’s a chance to learn more about them and their work and talk about some of the real challenges and opportunities as a food writer today.
About Mira
Mira Dessy is a writer, lifelong learner, crochet enthusiast, gardener, tea drinker, and someone who believes that nourishment is about far more than what’s on the dinner table.
In this conversation we talked about what holistic nutrition actually means, why Mira started writing on Substack, the challenges and opportunities she’s found here, how she organizes the content that she writes about, the book club she’s been running for almost a decade, and how her substack is a tangible demonstration of how she lives her message every day.
We even talked about the cows that come to visit her Colorado ranch and what happened when she took down the fence that kept them out of her garden. 😂
Mira’s newsletter includes reflections on books she’s reading, walks in the woods, preparedness, simple joys, and the everyday moments that help create a healthier, more meaningful life.
The goal of Mastermind for Food Writers and The Food Writers Business Lab isn’t simply to gather more information. It’s to build a better business alongside people who genuinely want to see each other succeed.
