In this heartfelt and energizing episode, Jeremy sits down with Erica Tuggle, founder and CEO of Livin, a platform that connects personal chefs with busy families and professionals. From the boardrooms of American Express, General Mills, and Coca-Cola to the kitchens of everyday families, Erica's journey is one of bold vision, thoughtful pivots, and deeply rooted values.

Erica opens up about:

• Her transition from a decorated corporate marketing career to starting her first company

• Why she became her own platform's first cook and what that taught her

• Building a tech-enabled marketplace using no-code tools

• How she bootstrapped early operations and prioritized low-cost, high-impact strategies

• Why Livin is about more than food...it's about wellness, time, and access

• The strategic (and emotional) reasons behind rebranding from Cook Connect to Livin

• Wearing all the hats, and how her corporate experience shaped her approach to branding and leadership

• How she's learning to balance motherhood, entrepreneurship, and her own wellness

This episode is a masterclass in identifying a real-world problem and creating an accessible, values-driven solution while also highlighting the grit and grace it takes to build something from scratch.

Whether you're a busy parent, aspiring founder, or someone seeking to align purpose with business, Erica's story will leave you inspired to start Livin on your own terms.
