How Food Connects Us to Each Other and The Planet - Evan Rilling

There is so much more to food than just for gastronomic pleasure or physical sustenance. Evan Rilling, once a personal chef to Will Smith and a now master of healthy farm-to-table cousins, passionately shares the true potential of food in connecting us with our roots, community, and mother nature. Having cooked for multiple retreat centers and built a local food forest in Bali, Evan has witnessed how involving people in the process of growing food can not only be healing but can also be the key for people to truly care about the planet. 

In this intimate episode, we dive into Evan’s personal journey of overcoming a personal crisis and how it led him to evolve his role beyond just a chef but the builder and healer of connections through food. We discuss how food can be the access point to one’s spiritual journey, the disconnection in the modern industrialized world, and remembering the part of us that used to live, hunt, and cook as a tribe.
