Jessica Secrest is a mom, content creator, and now cookbook author who’s built a deeply loyal following by doing one thing: showing up as herself. We sat down for a live conversation at Everybody’s Coffee/The Book Cellar in Chicago to talk about her new book, Of Course It’s Good!, and the unexpected journey that led her from packing lunches for her son to becoming a viral force across TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and beyond. She shares the moment she realized she was “onto something,” how a taco potato tot casserole changed her life, and why she’s never missed a day of posting in over two years. We also dig into food memories, family, and why she still does all her filming and editing solo. Enjoy this LIVE episode as we go Beyond the Plate… with Jessica Secrest of @applesauceandadhd.
