ROOTED IN THE KITCHEN™ — NEW ORLEANS EXPERIENCE
A private, leadership-centered cooking experience for those who carry more than they show
When leaders slow their hands, clarity returns.
Rooted in the Kitchen™️ is an intimate, in-person experience designed for leaders navigating complexity, responsibility, and constant decision-making, often without the space to reset.
This is not a traditional cooking class.
It’s a grounded leadership environment where nourishment, conversation, and clarity meet.
You will leave with:
A tangible sense of calm and mental clarity
Perspective on one leadership challenge you’ve been carrying
A felt reset that supports how you lead, decide, and show up

What This Experience Is
This experience is:
A curated, small-group leadership space
A shared cooking and dining experience designed to lower barriers
A place where leaders speak honestly, without performance
This experience is not:
A demonstration or lecture
A networking event
A surface-level reset
Rooted in the Kitchen™ exists because many leaders don’t need more information; they need the right environment to access what they already know.
Why The Kitchen Matters
The kitchen has always been a place of truth.
Long before boardrooms and strategy decks, decisions were shaped around shared tables.
When leaders step into the kitchen:
Guarded conversations soften
Thinking becomes embodied, not abstract
Insight arrives without force
This experience intentionally uses cooking and shared nourishment as a leadership advantage because clarity doesn’t come from urgency; it comes from grounding.
Who is This For
Rooted in the Kitchen™ is designed for:
Executives, founders, and senior leaders
Professionals navigating high responsibility and internal pressure
Individuals who value depth, discretion, and meaningful dialogue
If you are seeking a loud room, this is not it.
If you are seeking a meaningful one, you’re likely in the right place.
What To Expect
A guided, shared cooking experience
A thoughtfully prepared meal we enjoy together
Facilitated conversation centered on leadership, capacity, and clarity
A calm, grounded environment, free from urgency or performance
You don’t need to prepare anything in advance.
You only need to arrive as you are.

A Message From
Toye Penny
Founder, Love You More International™
Leaders hold so much.
Often quietly.
Often alone.
Rooted in the Kitchen™ was created to give leaders a space to reconnect with themselves — not through performance, but through nourishment, truth, and compassionate reflection.
I look forward to welcoming you, breaking bread with you, and supporting you as you restore your capacity from within.
