Happy 2025!

Today we welcome beloved friend, chef and flower goddess Loria Stern for a delicious conversation on all the ways food, love, plants, business and creativity intertwine.

She’s launched successful collaborations with brands from Whole Foods to Prada, Bloomingdales to Adidas.

Life as a NYC pastry chef, cake designer and fish mongress
The story behind Loria’s famous pressed flower shortbread cookies
Navigating the dark night of the soul moments that come with growth
Cancel culture and social media
Homes over the years in Santa Barbara and Los Angeles and what’s growing in Loria’s garden right now
The process of writing and selling a cookbook
Loria’s dream dinner guests and desert island culinary tools

We Love You Loria! Your grounded, earthy, meticulous yet wildly creative energy is everything we want to call into this new year.
