    Today’s guest is Ashley Graham, the model, entrepreneur, advocate, and co-founder of Lucci, a Lambrusco brand inspired by her love of food, wine, and Italy. A trailblazer in fashion and a champion of body confidence and inclusion, Ashley is now bringing that same energy to the wine world. Ashley and host Kerry Diamond discuss the origin story of Lucci, from a dinner in Los Angeles to a DM to an Italian winemaker in Emilia-Romagna.

Culinary Adventures from New York to Italy and Back Again” is out tomorrow and showcases everything Hillary loves to make, from Roman pastas to Mexican food to Jewish classics with a twist. And the title? Ammazza is Italian for “you killed it,” “you slayed,” or good old “wow!” Hillary joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about the long road to “AMMAZZA!” and what the cookbook process taught her about herself and her cooking. She shares stories from her New York restaurant career, from working for Bobby Flay at Mesa Grill to cooking with Missy Robbins at A Voce, and opens up about the painful zero-star review she received at The Beatrice Inn, and how it ultimately helped her find her footing.

A celebrated food stylist and author of the new book “Revel: A Maximalist Guide to Having People Over,” Mariana is known for her lush, layered aesthetic and her belief that food is meant to be experienced as a full table, not just individual dishes. She joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about the inspiration behind “Revel,” from her approach to menus and entertaining to the creative process of bringing her book to life with celebrated photographers Gentl & Hyers. They also discuss how she became one of the industry’s most sought-after food stylists, the realities of cooking and hosting in a small New York City kitchen, and the deeply personal story behind the book. When Mariana’s marriage ended, she had to rewrite “Revel” days before the deadline, and she went on to learn about resilience, reinvention, and the power of gathering with intention.
