Who I Work With & How We Will Sizzle
I’m here for the women who are "doing it all" but want to do it with a little more joy and a lot less stress. Whether you’re an association looking to empower your members, a corporate team needing a fresh perspective on leadership, or a community group ready to find the "spark" in the everyday, I speak directly to the heart of the modern woman’s experience. I bridge the gap between the chaos of the kitchen and the clarity of the boardroom, proving that with the right preparation, anything is possible.
Let’s talk about:
The Mise en Place Mindset: How "everything in its place" isn’t just a kitchen rule, it’s the secret to reclaiming your time and your sanity.
From Simmer to Sizzle: Igniting personal and professional growth through the lens of culinary creativity.
The Art of the Pivot: Lessons from a professional chef on how to handle "burned" plans and kitchen nightmares with grace and humour.
Feeding the Soul: Why gathering at the table (and in the workplace) is the ultimate foundation for strong culture and connection.

Merging 10 years of Toronto marketing project management with 15 years of live radio and a MasterChef pedigree, I deliver keynotes that are as strategic as they are soulful. I share the 'Ingredients of the Pivot,' teaching audiences how to navigate high-pressure transitions and build resilience from the ground up. Whether I’m drawing on my Second City improv training or my journey building a global culinary brand, my talks provide a 'Mise en Place' for success, giving your team the confidence to lead, adapt, and thrive when the heat is on.

Drawing on my Second City improv training, 15 years of live radio, plus a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, I lead high-energy sessions that focus on 'Yes, And' thinking to foster collaboration and creative problem-solving.
Whether we’re in the kitchen or the boardroom, I use my live TV grit and stand-up comedy background to get your team out of their shells and into a state of flow. These aren't just workshops; they are interactive experiences designed to break down silos, build trust, and prove that the best results happen when we embrace the heat together.

Have a vision that doesn't fit into a standard box? Let’s build something bespoke. Whether you’re looking for a hybrid of emceeing and a breakout workshop, a brand partnership with a live cooking element, or a specialized session for your leadership team, I’m ready to 'Megg It Up' for you.
Drawing on my decade of project management and 20 years of media experience, I can help you design a custom experience that perfectly hits your goals. If you can dream it, we can cook it up, let’s chat and find the perfect recipe for your event.
The Process
The Connection
Book a Chat: Let’s get the coffee (or wine) and talk vision. We’ll outline a path forward that’s realistic, strategic, and perfectly tailored to your event goals. No cookie-cutter packages, just a solid recipe for your success.
Kitchen Collaboration
Make a Plan: Think of me as the "Sous-Chef" in the planning process. We keep communication wide open and decisions shared, no mystery ingredients, and zero surprises. You’re part of the recipe every step of the way to ensure the final result is exactly what you envisioned.
Mise en Place Vibe
Grab the Details: Every event has its own unique flavour, so I don't believe in "one size fits all." If 15 years of live radio taught me anything, it’s that you have to be ready for anything! I keep our plan agile and responsive, ensuring my process integrates seamlessly with yours. Whether your timeline shifts or your goals evolve, I pivot with you to keep the momentum going.
Serve it Up!
It’s Show Time: The "secret sauce" of any great event is how people feel when they leave. I combine my media-trained timing with a true understanding of audience connection to create a moment that sticks. We deliver an experience that resonates long after the mic is turned off and the kitchen is clean.

"Meg (Cook with Meg) has been a tremendous partner for Egg Farmers of Alberta for many years. While being a great chef and an engaging spokesperson has been vital to her success, what I appreciate most is her passion for our organization and the farmers/food she represents, and the creativity she brings to the table. Whether she’s developing recipes, hosting virtual cooking classes, doing a media appearance, entertaining a room full of foodies, or sharing fun and delicious new ways to enjoy eggs, Meg has constantly delivered excellent results for EFA. Here enthusiasm is infectious and the way she’s able to naturally connect with any audience, real or virtual is unparalleled!"New List Item

Meg was an absolute dream to work with. She was consistently reliable, responsive, and extremely professional, meeting every task and timeline with enthusiasm and care. Her communication was clear, thoughtful, and collaborative, and she was always open to feedback, changes, and pivots as the project evolved. Meg brought not only her culinary expertise, but also her own warmth, personality, and genuine care into the work. Her excitement was evident in every meeting and interaction, and she went above and beyond to ensure the finished product reflected both curriculum goals and the needs of students and educators. Her expertise, creativity, and passion made this collaboration seamless and deeply rewarding.
