Robin Van Creveld is the founder of Community Chef, a social enterprise passionate about making good food accessible for all.
We recorded this conversation about a year ago, however Robin’s message is increasingly relevant. He believes in the power of food as a tool to engage hard to reach communities. He has taught thousands of people including vulnerable individuals often excluded from such opportunities. His students have seen benefits to their physical health, mental health and built long lasting social connections enabling them to feel part of the community.
Times have been tough, but Robin continues with his mission. He tells us how it all started and what keeps him going.
We hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

S2 Ep28: The big C, fertility and Hope
THIS IS A SPECIAL CONVERSATION
Emily is one of life’s unsung heroes. She is a coach (and quite frankly, one of the best out there!), a mum, a wife, an entrepreneur and an author.
On the surface, it all seems perfect. What many people don’t know is that shortly after getting married, she found out she had bowel cancer. Following that, she went on a difficult and traumatic fertility rollercoaster. She talks to Zarrin about her journey. It’s moving, devastating, inspiring and hopeful. I guarantee you that if you stay to the end, you will be equally moved.
Here is something Emily wrote in 2018:
“Life is just one big way of learning isn’t it. It’s managing in the big and small moments. It’s finding peace even where it shouldn’t be. It’s being as truthful to ourselves and others as we can be. It’s finding strength when we crumble. It’s gaining a voice when we’re muted. It’s directing things so we feel a sense of control. It’s failing and succeeding in the least obvious ways.” Emily Hodge September 2018
