Valentine Warner: Cooking Through Divorce and Starting Again
-

This week on The Big D, Ateh Jewel and Buzzy are joined by chef, forager, and philosopher of food Valentine Warner for a deeply honest, unexpectedly funny conversation about divorce, identity, and starting again.
Known for his rustic, no-fuss approach to cooking and his belief that food can quite literally heal the soul, Valentine opens up about navigating the chaos of separation, from “cooking feverishly” through heartbreak to rebuilding a life (and appetite) in a tiny studio flat. Together, they explore the emotional parallels between the kitchen and relationships: what we keep, what we discard, and how we learn to nourish ourselves again.
From the high-adrenaline world of professional kitchens to the quiet loneliness of cooking for one, this episode dives into the realities of post-divorce life, while also offering hope, humour, and a reminder that even the simplest meal can be an act of self-worth.
Expect candid stories, sharp insights, and a fresh perspective on healing….served with a side of anchovies, nature, and a little bit of magic.
