Ep 8 - Finding Fulfilment in Life: Sean Brock - Eating in Isolation

In the season finale of Eating in Isolation, Sara and Sue talk to James Beard Award winning chef and cookbook author Sean Brock. In 2017, Sean was in rehab for an alcohol addiction, and discovered his passion and near obsession for psychology, learning all he could from teachers and leaders in the field. He has incorporated these learnings not only into his life, but into his restaurants. In this episode, Sean discusses his experience with neurofeedback therapy, learning and teaching about trauma and the cause of triggers, understanding his own self-worth, and the work that goes into creating a healthy and robust community both within his kitchen and beyond.

Welcome To Eating In Isolation

In this inaugural episode, co-hosts Sue S. Chan and Sara Solomon discuss the circumstances and experiences that inspired this show. They open up about their own struggles with mental health, how they got to where they are today, and discuss subjects like anxiety, codependency, shame and trauma. They begin unpacking unconscious drives, tackling questions like: Does the chaos of running a restaurant attract individuals already predisposed to mental illness? What is the true meaning of ego and how is that at play in the kitchen and beyond? Is shame a greater motivator than self-worth? With vulnerability and candor, Sara and Sue touch on several topics to be covered throughout this series, and begin to introduce helpful tools and frameworks, reminding us that we are not alone.
