Chicken Piccata and Letting God Lead
Wednesday, 4 March, 2026
In this episode of The Dish It Girl Podcast, Dina Deleasa Gonsar sits down with her friend Katie Marie Helgerson, hospitality educator and founder of Gather Intentional Living. Together, they explore the heart behind hospitality—how welcoming others to the table can build deeper community, spark meaningful conversations, and create spaces where people feel truly seen. Katie opens up about her unique path into the world of food, design, and connection, including her formative time in Thailand and how it shaped her passion for gathering. She and Dina swap personal stories about family traditions, favorite recipes, and the real-life dance of juggling motherhood while pursuing a calling. As the conversation deepens, Katie shares her wisdom on intentional living and how thoughtful hospitality can transform both personal life and corporate culture. The two friends reflect on faith, entrepreneurship, and the often messy but beautiful work of cultivating our relationship with Lord through it all.
