228 | Hospitality, Cancer, Bodies, the Restaurant Industry, & Healing with Laura Wagstaff
I was unsure what to expect when I met Laura, I was connected to her by pervious podcast guest Camilla Ruth Marcus. I knew she was lovely via email, Camilla spoke highly of her, and that she had a thriving career in the NYC hospitality industry but that was about it. Days before our interview she sent me a keynote she'd given a few months prior. I read the 12 pages on a long train train and found myself fully weeping by the time I arrived at my stop. When I spoke to her in her cozy West Village apartment a few days later it was clear immediately she'd worked in hospitality her entire career. She is a host through and through, I felt so cozy in her space chatting with her about our fascinating story for hours. I loved learning about the hospitality industry, how she navigated a having rare cancer in the prime of her career, her experience with the medical industry, and how she used her cancer as a learning opportunity to discovering food as medicine, shifting her perspective on death, intuition, and listening to her body. We cover tips for those dealing with a cancer diagnosis, in the hospitality industry or wanting to be as well as for being a patron, networking, and seeing things from a new lens.

227 | Dr. Frank Lipman on information overload, technology addiction, the importance of meaning for health, and more
I've been following Dr. Lipman for years--I've listened to countless interviews with him and read most articles he's written. In the days where I was overly addicted to wellness I'd scour the internet for the latests health information for hours falling down wormholes on what foods to avoid and super-foods to splurge on. Ironically, when I met Dr. Lipman in his office for this interview we didn't focus our time talking about what foods to avoid but rather we talked about how the healthiest thing we can do for ourselves doesn't have to do with food at all. With over 30 years experience as a medical doctor, he's discovered that when people have meaning in their lives they're often healthier. In this conversation, we talked about his fascinating life of moving from South Africa to the Bronx in the 80s to becoming a a prolific celebrity doctor and author. We also talked about how wellness movement impacts different generations differently and where he sees the future of wellness.

226 | my Favorites *Gratitudes + Big Changes Coming. ft. HAIR, movies, tv, music, natural beauty +
It's been a very long while (8 months) since I've caught up with you solo on the podcast. I thought this week I'd fill you in on some updates like how the podcast will be on a 3 week break, what you can expect next season and beyond from me, and what I've been loving lately. In this episode I not only share what I've been listening to, reading, watching, eating, and products I've been using--but I also got to reflect on what has been working in my life (long road-trips with my boyfriend) and what really has not been (making decisions). It was nice recording this because it gave me the opportunity to thinking through to what I've been loving and grateful for this season, hopefully you also enjoy listening to it and it inspires you in some way. All the links to everything I spoke about are below.

223 | Dana Cowin on Ugly Food, Evolution of Food Culture, Career Transitions, Power of Story, Female Friendships, and more!
There are few people I love following on social media as much today's guest. Dana Cowin's enthusiasm for food, career, and life as a whole are a delight. As editor in chief of Food & Wine Magazine for 21 years, a judge on Top Chef, a cookbook author, the host of the podcast Speaking Broadly, a chief creative officer at Dig Inn, just to name a few--on paper she's clearly extremely accomplished. In person however, she far exceeded her impressive resume she was present, welcoming, inspirational, wise, and warm when I visited her Manhattan apartment to record. Dana made us tea, gushed about her best friend Cheryl, and made sure I had a cozy pillow to sit on before diving into the interview. She was not only easy to talk to but allowed the conversation to organically meander wherever I led us. We chatted about female friendship, the evolution of food culture and her role in that, food culture and trends now, what a day in the life of a editor in chief is actually like, career transitions (Dana was EIC for 21 years before leaving in 2017), the power of story and her new love of podcasting, food as pleasure and connection, her advice to mentors and mentees, and so much more. I loved everything about Dana and it was a delight to have her on the podcast.

222 | Trevor Hall on Saturn Returns, Relationships as Mirrors, Surrender, Music + more!
I started listening to Trevor Hall back in 2009 when my yoga studio played him in a heavy rotation. His music soon made its way onto my own playlists when I started teaching yoga myself. After speaking with him this week on the podcast I learned that his career in the music industry had a tumultuous start which including getting dropped from his label, living in a monastery, and eventually making a hit album. Beyond his music he's one of the most wise, peaceful, and dynamic people I've met. We talked about music as a tool, meditation, surrender, learning vs. applying practices, saturn returns, using astrology for self-awareness, traveling, staying grounded, relationships as mirrors, culture, connection, indecisiveness, and more. I loved meeting Trevor as much as I loved listening to Lime Tree in yoga class in 2009 (which was a lot).

220 | Camilla Ruth Marcus founder of Westbourne on Food as an Experience, Community, Angel Investing, Love Languages and more
I discovered Camilla soon after moving to NYC and her instagram quickly became my most screen-shotted account. She inspires me in so many ways from her aesthetic and taste to her philosophy of entrepreneurship and community to investing, and of course in food. We talk about her robust and meandering education and career path, food as an experience, modern philanthropy models, how the restaurant industry can open doors for anyone, accidentally plant based food, opening a restaurant, work/life balance, angel investing, intuition, relationships and love languages, mentorship, women in business , and way more. I loved having this cozy, long conversation with her in beautiful cozy apartment surrounded by her family, friends, and snuggly dogs and hope it's the first of many.
“There are no mistakes, because there is always another choice.”“If you are too focused on a plan sometimes you can miss the other opportunities that are out there.”“Philanthropy is more about aligning with brands, wearing brands, purchasing things and voting with your dollar everyday… not about the massive donations.”“Learning and curiosity is innate to all of us and it’s important to foster that.”“Every time you make a choice, you have a choice to make an impact.”
