Gratitude, But We Digress

Tune in to a very chatty episode on food, nourishment, and magic realism! Juana selected ‘Like Water for Chocolate (Como agua para chocolate)' a novel by Laura Esquivel where food plays an important role in unraveling many of the character's truths. The book is structured with recipes at the start of every chapter, setting the scene for food symbolism in all aspects of life-giving nourishment. Juana and Zi unpack the themes present in this book and share their stories of nostalgic meals and how food represents love, as an important ingredient in ultimate nourishment.

Nourishment can take on a vast number of meanings, from the food we eat to the thoughts we think. This month we sit down with Tatjana Pismanovska, a consultant for the holistic skin, body & mind brand Arbonne*, as she shares her passion for food, health, wellness, living life to the fullest, and serving.
