154 - Turning Meals Into Healing Rituals with Susan Ottaviano
About this episode
Susan Ottaviano discusses her artistic approach to wellness and her new book on plant-based healing.
Join us for a unique look at the intersection of art and healthy living with Susan Ottaviano. Before she was a sought-after New York–based food stylist and artist, Susan was the lead singer of Book of Love, opening for Depeche Mode and helping shape the 80s synth-pop scene. With a BFA in Painting and culinary training from both the CIA and ICE, she brings a signature "painterly" and artistic approach to the world of wellness. She joins us to discuss her new book, Plants That Heal: Plant-Based Wisdom for Body, Mind, and Soul and how we can transition from simply eating to practicing "culinary ritual." We dive into the eight core areas of life—including sleep, skin, and home—to discover how simple, vegan-friendly tonics, elixirs, and garden-inspired entertaining can help us reconnect with nature. Whether you're looking for a seasonal recipe or a natural home remedy, Susan's "lived-in" wisdom offers a beautiful, practical roadmap for mind-body balance.
