Megan Porta shares her journey from a “soul-sucking” corporate job to becoming the founder of Eat Blog Talk, a thriving podcast and community for food bloggers. Plus, how one emotional moment after maternity leave led to a decade of entrepreneurship, family adventure, and freedom.
Check Out These Highlights:
When Megan Porta returned to work after maternity leave, she knew something had to change. What started as a tearful conversation with a friend—and the offhand comment, “Why don’t you just do it?”—became the spark that launched a food blog, a thriving business, and a life built around what matters most: freedom and family.
In this conversation, Megan shares how getting fired became the best thing that ever happened to her, how she built Eat Blog Talk into a top-rated podcast and community, and why following intuition (even without a plan) can lead to something extraordinary. We also talk about what a decade of RV travel has taught her about courage, creativity, and taking one small step at a time toward the life you want.
