Drawing on her experience across media, brand work and writing, Liz shares how the way we talk about food influences daily choices, what it takes to build trust with a skeptical audience, and how to navigate the rapid spread of misinformation online. We also explore how cultural context shapes food systems, communication and the way we think about health.
