In this episode we talk about food, nourishment, rituals, ancestral healing and so much more. Grief and food are some of my favorite topics. It was a lightulb moment when Roshni helped me think differently about emotional eating while grieving and how we can give ourselves grace.
Roshni Kavate is an Artist, Healer, and Activist. Roshni Kavate is the Co- Founder and Creative Director of Marigolde, a grief wellness platform dedicated to reclaiming nourishing practices rooted in ancestral wisdom for collective liberation. She believes grief is a portal to wholeness. Through rituals and storytelling, we can reconnect to our origins and be our wild selves. She sees the path to being whole as a radical art and political practice. The question that guides her is What is our grief craving? and how can we nourish and feed it?

Roshni is also the co-founder of Marigolde, a revolutionary postpartum and pregnancy loss platform rooted in radical empathy, empowered education and ancestral rituals.
