About this episode
Ellen and Betsy discuss the deeper meanings behind cooking and the cookbook ROOT DOWN, RISE UP.
In today’s heartfelt conversation, Ellen sits down with Betsy Tanenbaum, the chef, creative heart, and author behind ROOT DOWN, RISE UP . Together, they share how they met, how Betsy fell in love with cooking, and why this cookbook is about so much more than recipes — it’s about healing, intuition, nourishment, and coming back to yourself. You’ll hear how the book came to life, the stories behind Betsy’s dishes, and the intention behind every ingredient. Episode 90 is for anyone who wants to slow down, savor the process, and reconnect with food in a way that serves both soul and body. 👩🏻🍳📕Use code CONFESSIONS and save $5 https://warriorinstructors.com/p/rootdownriseup Follow Betsy: LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/betsybostwick/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabetsy25/ Thank you so much for listening!
