Cake Therapy with Dr. Altreisha Foster: What I'm Baking Through
Manage episode 424696592 series 3580975
As we stand at the threshold of another year, I, Dr. Altreisha Foster, invite you into my sanctuary of flour and feelings on the Cake Therapy podcast. Let's embrace the solace found in the ritual of baking, discovering how it intertwines with the threads of grief and healing. This episode carries you through the tender echoes of my holiday season, one where my mother's struggle with Parkinson's disease colored our family traditions. You'll witness the delicate balance between the sugar-dusted memories of my aunt Nellie's fruitcake recipe and the sobering realities of life's fragility. Together, we'll reflect on past conversations with inspiring bakers like Ron Ben-Israel and Rae Anderson, while teasing the tastes of future dialogues with the artisans like Lima Cakes.
Transitioning into the heart of our discussions, we wade into the deep waters of letting go, of making those decisions that weigh heavily on our hearts and go against the grain of cultural expectations. The story I share is not just mine but is echoed in homes across the world—the transition of a loved one into nursing care. Here, you'll find a space to navigate the guilt and grief that accompany such choices, and understand why sometimes, entrusting professional hands with the care of those we cherish most can be the most profound act of love. As we knead through personal trauma and its impact on family dynamics, you're invited to find comfort in the knowledge that even the most hidden stories have the power to knit us closer, affirming that healing is possible, one recipe at a time. Join us for an episode that is as much a balm for the soul as it is nourishment for the heart.
