Melanie Underwood, founder of Nourish and Gather and author of Making Artisan Cheesecake, was a guest on the Below the Surface at The NoW podcast discussing mindfulness, presence, and how those principles show up in her cooking and teaching.


Melanie's approach to life is refreshing and an important reminder for us all.  As a culinary educator for the past 26 years, Melanie brings a mindfulness to all she does in life, including cooking. It was her mother that taught Melanie at an early age the important lesson of approaching life from a positive perspective -- yes, this may suck, but now what. What is the next step to move you through this situation. Melanie works daily to ground herself and stay connected.  Through her company, Gather Culinary, she hosts culinary classes, retreats and camps where she passes along that same message in addition to her culinary expertise. Let's dive deep and learn more about Melanie and the important work she does.
