What Your Cooking Style Says About Your Self-Worth

The Way You Cook When No One Is Watching –
A Gentle Lesson in Self-Awareness

We talk so much about healing, growth, and self-love — but what if it all begins in the kitchen? Not in the fancy meals or Instagram-perfect plating… …but in the small, everyday ways we treat ourselves when no one else is around.


Today’s episode of Let’s Enlighten is not a cooking lesson — it is a mirror. A mirror that quietly asks:

  • Do you cook with presence or pressure?
  • Do you serve everyone but forget your own plate?
  • Is your kitchen full of stress — or softness?

Because the way we cook often reflects the way we love. Hurried. Exhausted. Self-forgetting. Or — Slow. Kind. Aware.

In this episode, I share what changed for me the day I cooked only for myself. How I found my own salt level. How I stopped cleaning before I tasted. How I stopped rushing, and started receiving.

“Maybe love is not candlelight dinners. Maybe it is boiling water patiently.”

If this episode made you pause… even for a moment — I invite you to join our quiet space where we explore healing without fixing, and awareness without pressure.
