Our Latest Podcasts
Cake Therapy is a heartwarming and uplifting podcast that celebrates the transformative power of baking therapy. Hosted by Dr. Altreisha Foster, the passionate baker, entrepreneur and advocate behind Cake Therapy, this podcast is a delightful blend of inspiring stories, expert insights and practical baking tips. Each episode takes listeners on a journey of self-discovery, emotional healing and connection through the therapeutic art of baking.
The warmth of a freshly baked cake often carries more than just the promise of a sweet treat; it's a gateway to myriad stories and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Ayo, the heart behind Tabi Cakes and Tabi Luxe, joins us to weave a narrative that's as delightful and complex as her confections. Her journey – an intertwining of life as a diplomat's child in Austria, her vibrant Nigerian heritage, and her current chapter in the UK – unfolds to reveal insights into the delicate balance of her roles as a mother, wife, and entrepreneur, all while maintaining a zest for life and a penchant for laughter.
Running a cake business is no cakewalk, especially in the throes of a global pandemic. This episode slices into the sweet and the bitter of entrepreneurship as Ayo shares her evolution from a necessity-baker for her kids to becoming a social media sensation, thanks to a serendipitous color challenge and a push from a friend. Her tales of cake aesthetics, drawn from the world of fashion, and the critical choices that have defined her brand are not just icing on the proverbial cake. They are heartfelt lessons in thriving amidst adversity and finding balance between success and well-being.
And while the kitchen might be the heart of the home, friendships are the soul of business. Ayo and I reminisce on the power of having a supportive tribe, discussing how these relationships can be as essential as the most well-crafted recipe. We share candid experiences of resilience through friendship, akin to tales from my book. Our chat concludes on the sweet promise of the Cake Therapy Foundation – an endeavor to sprinkle hope and entrepreneurial skills among girls, using the therapeutic craft of baking as a vessel for empowerment and change. Join us for an episode that's rich with the flavors of life, love, and the pursuit of happiness, oven-fresh for your heart and ears.
