In this episode Anna Lutz and Elizabeth Davenport sit down with Chef Dani Black, the owner of Bigger Tables, a consulting group that supports chef entrepreneurs.

We discuss:
- The equalizing power of food and how it can bring people together.
- Therapeutic culinary groups in eating disorders treatment and how they help heal people from eating disorders.
- The fact that we all have different experiences, relationships, and approaches to food, but share the basic need for it.
- The commonalities of working with people and food in different settings.
