FROM THE COMMUNITY
Words from women who've done the work
"Sophie is a guiding light in the maternal paradigm. As a postpartum doula, I have renewed my commitment to servicing families during the fourth trimester, while bringing medicinal food to the forefront."
REBECCA, POSTPARTUM DOULA
"This class was so much more than a class on amazing food. It was about the deep importance of mothering the mother — nourishing women from the inside out so they can be empowered while they raise this planet's future."
KRISTA, APPRENTICE
"It was not what I expected — so much more colourful and full of ancient wisdom. Sophie weaves old traditions with modern needs. At the end you feel how your cup has been filled as much as your recipe repertoire."
ASTRID, APPRENTICE
MEET SOPHIE
Sophie Ward Koren is a mother, author, creative mentor, former private chef and entrepreneur whose work explores the relationship between a woman’s physical wellbeing and her fullest creative expression.
She believes that creativity begins in a place deeper than we think — in our nervous systems, our rhythms, and in the foundational ways we care for our bodies. Before a woman can fully make, lead, build or bring her ideas to the table, there is something more fundamental that needs to come to her plate first.
Through her writing, weekly newsletter, 1:1 mentoring and group journeys, Sophie supports women to become the fullest expression of themselves, resourced, vibrant, and creating from a place that feels deeply their own.
Sophie’s writing has been published in Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and The Sunday Times. She lives in Ojai, CA with her partner Isaac Koren and their two children.
