About this episode

This week, JVN and Antoni Porowski serve up a delicious conversation on the intersections of food, identity, and personal growth. From Antoni’s culinary journey to the ways food connects us to our past, present, and future, they explore how what we eat can reflect who we are. Antoni opens up about the role of food in self-care, how cooking can be a mindful practice, and the lessons he’s learned from years of sharing meals with friends, family, and the Fab Five.


Antoni Porowski is a New York Times Bestselling author, host and executive producer of No Taste Like Home from Studio Ramsay Global for National Geographic, and Emmy-winning producer and star of Netflix’s hit series Queer Eye.
