Method


1. STEP ONE

I’ve found myself around beautiful women who were skilled professionals, leaders and academics, but feeling like it was wrong for them to be both smart and beautiful. And of course, if you weren’t beautiful, then you made yourself attractive (and worthwhile) with a sharp, clever mind or as a hard worker, a great cook or by being wealthy. It felt threatening to find beauty and brains in the one being.

Ultimately though, as the story the world sells goes, it is the beautiful woman who lives happily every after with their handsome prince (or without if they choose), wanting for nothing, with the world at their feet.

And voila! a hearty soup to nourish and support every little bit of you.
