What is my wife doing differently in her Zoom meeting setup causing her meeting ID and passcode numbers to change for every session?

Thanks,

That sounds like the difference between a series of meetings set up as
  1. a recurring meeting, so a single invite which has a single passcode etc. for all the occurrences. This is the better way to work, if you can have the meeting on the same day at the same time. You can usually change the odd meeting after you've sent out the recurring invite without changing the passcode etc.
  2. a set of invites, each for a single meeting, each, therefore, with its own passcode etc.
