  • You know Bobbi Brown as the makeup artist and entrepreneur behind her namesake brand and Jones Road Beauty. But she’s also a health food nut, a hotelier, and someone who trusts her gut. Bobbi joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her career, her scrappy start, her feelings about failure and ageism, her upcoming memoir, and, of course, food. They also talk about The George, the hotel in Montclair, New Jersey, owned by Bobbi and her husband, and their collab with Williams Sonoma Home.

  • Today’s episode was recorded at this year’s Shine Away conference, hosted by Reese Witherspoon’s media company, Hello Sunshine. Asma Khan, the chef and owner of Darjeeling Express, joins Radio Cherry Bombe host Kerry Diamond on stage to talk about her inspiring life and career. “I am what I am because I was put through fire,” says Asma.

    Asma didn’t set out to be a chef. In fact, she didn’t even know how to cook when she got married. Today, there’s a “Chef’s Table” episode about her on Netflix, she was on this year’s TIME 100 list, and she has a new cookbook, her third, out this March titled "Monsoon: Delicious Indian Recipes for Every Day and Season.” She talks about her unlikely start in the culinary world, her all-female kitchen, how she raised the money to open her business, and her commitment to female empowerment.

    Thank you to AT&T for supporting the Shine Away conference.

  • “I don’t like to accept the status quo,” says today’s guest, activist, chef, and mom of four Camilla Marcus. Camilla joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her debut cookbook, “My Regenerative Kitchen: Plant-Based Recipes And Sustainable Practices To Nourish Ourselves And The Planet,” and the steps folks can take to have a greener kitchen, from reading labels to purchasing regenerative pantry brands.
