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.
