Actor Taylor Lautner and his wife Tay Lautner have both gone through a significant journey of mental health wellness through very different circumstances. Taylor grew up in the spotlight, and had to learn to reckon with debilitating fame at a young age, while Tay had to learn to prioritize her own wellbeing during her time as a Covid nurse. Their stories are different, but the triumphs and commitment they hold to having vulnerable conversations as a result, are the same. Today we discuss how advocating for your own mental health can be an incredibly difficult thing to do, how there’s freedom in being open, and the mission of Lautners’ foundation called The Lemons Foundation.

Chili Recipe 

1. Heat some olive oil in a big soup pot and add some chopped onion once that’s hot
2. Saute your onion for about 5 minutes then add some ground beef 
3. Break up your beef in the pot and cook for 6-7 minutes, or until it’s cooked fully through 
4. Add some spices and stir until combined, I like chili powder, cumin, a bit of sugar, tomato paste, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and some cayenne  
5. Then you can add some diced tomatoes, kidney beans, beef broth, and tomato sauce and stir it up 
6. Let that simmer for at least 20-25 minutes but the longer you let it sit, the better it’s gonna be.

Penne a la Vodka Recipe

1. Add some oil into a hot pan with some finely diced onion. 
2. Once the onion cooks down a bit and becomes translucent, add some garlic and chili flakes and let that cook for a couple minutes - we don’t want the garlic to burn so keep an eye on it. 
3. Add some tomato paste and stir that in. Let it cook down for a couple more minutes so we get that nice earthy flavor. 
4. In the meantime, boil some water with a lot of salt and cook your penne - when that’s done be sure to save some of your pasta water. 
5. Once everything in the pan is nice and combined, we’re gonna add some vodka. 
6. Let that vodka cook down, we want to cook out all the alcohol so it doesn’t taste like a cocktail! 
7. Then, stir in some heavy cream, add your pasta, pasta water, and a whole bunch of parmesan cheese and you’re ready to eat!
