Second Life

Caroline Chambers is an author, recipe developer, and the creator of the popular Substack and cookbook What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking. Caroline began her career in advertising in New York City, and to make ends meet, she also started a floral design business, delivering flowers across the city by cab. After a few years, she felt like the city—and the advertising industry—wasn’t for her. When her boyfriend (and eventual husband)  relocated to San Diego for work, she took the opportunity to join him and resolved that, when she did, she’d also pivot to an industry she was truly passionate about: food. Over the next few years, she worked in catering, restaurants, test kitchens, and more, before finding her niche as a freelance recipe developer. She then began to grow an audience on social media, which culminated in the launch of her Substack What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking in 2020. Readers loved her quick, delicious, unfussy recipes, and her community grew quickly. Today, she has over 409,000 subscribers and is the #1 Food & Drink Substack. Last year, she expanded her culinary universe even further by publishing the What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking cookbook.
