Deets: Model and viral cooking phenom Nara Smith stops by for a conversation about her debut cookbook, Homemade — and the inspiration behind her fresh, soothing, comfort-focused approach to food and wellness.

Long before her videos made her a star, Smith learned to cook alongside her father and grandmother in Germany, where homemade bread, simple ingredients, and cooking from scratch were part of everyday life. Years later, after being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and eczema, she returned to those early lessons, embracing whole foods and home cooking as a way to support her health and her growing family.

Now, millions of followers later, Nara has made home cooking look incredibly chic while preparing delicious and thoughtful meals her family loves — and what began as a personal practice has evolved into a global community inspired by her calm, creative approach to life in the kitchen. Filled with recipes ranging from fresh breads and handmade pasta to family dinners, pantry staples, and favorite treats, Homemade makes cooking from scratch feel not just approachable, but one of the best gifts you can give those you love — and yourself.

Hear Smith share the stories behind the recipes — and find out why slowing down, even for a home-cooked meal, can bring more joy, connection, and creativity to everyday living.

All in-person tickets include a copy of the book.
