CANCELED | Heirloom Meals Recipe Project | Preserving Family Stories through Food with Carole Murko

August 13 @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm

Due to unforeseen circumstances, this workshop has been canceled. Please join the mailing list to stay updated on future programming for writers!

Food connects us deeply to who we are and where we come from. In this heartfelt, interactive workshop, participants will explore and celebrate their family histories, immigrant roots, and cherished memories through the powerful lens of food and recipes. Guided by Carol Murko, founder of Heirloom Meals, the session offers a warm space to reflect on the traditions and stories that shape us, and to preserve these treasured recipes and memories for future generations.

Carole Murko is the master of change. She has analyzed municipal bonds, run the global fixed income marketing at State Street Global Advisors, and created/hosted an NPR radio show and two nationally televised PBS specials focused on storytelling around our connection to our ancestral foods and family recipes. Carole surrendered all that when diagnosed with an extremely rare and theoretically incurable eye disease, which thrust her into a healing odyssey–meditation, plants, food, and consciousness became her medicine, and Carole’s diagnosis became her greatest teacher. Today, Carole is a NeuroChangeSolutions consultant, teaching Dr. Joe Dispenza’s neuroscience-based Change Your Mind…Create New Results program to corporate leaders—or anyone looking to make conscious, sustainable change. She is also a certified health coach, cannabis coach, Dragon’s Way qigong instructor, avid gardener, gourmet cook, culinary instructor, writer, and herbalist.
