## Resource

Elizabeth welcomes Jake Cohen, New York Times bestselling cookbook author, recipe developer, and one of the most joyful voices in food today. Jake’s culinary journey began with a love of hospitality that led him from the Culinary Institute of America to restaurant kitchens, food media, and eventually to his bestselling cookbooks Jew-ish, I Could Nosh, and his new book, Dinner Party Animal. In this conversation, Jake and Elizabeth talk about his favorite New York food spots, the lessons he learned working in professional kitchens, and the career pivots that helped him move from restaurants to food media to becoming a celebrated cookbook author. Jake shares how he thinks about ambition, creativity, manifestation, and taking time to recharge after three major book projects. He also opens up about his approach to hosting, why dinner parties do not need to feel stressful, and how food can become the conduit for connection, presence, and joy.
