Eat the Damn Bread

View Details

On this episode of Eat the Damn Bread, I’m taking you beyond the City of Light and into the sun-drenched hills of the South of France to one of the most magical places I’ve ever wandered, St. Paul de Vence.

Don’t get me wrong, Paris is, well...Paris, but sometimes the most Parisian thing you can do is skip Paris and choose stillness over spectacle and presence over pressure, which is what the French lifestyle is really all about.

Tune in because I’m sharing:

Why St. Paul de Vence completely stole my heart
How you can get there easily from Nice (on a budget or in style)
What makes this village feel like a living, breathing piece of art
Where to sip rosé, see Picasso’s legacy, and feel James Baldwin’s spirit

This town feels like Provence and the Riviera fell in love and had a very chic baby—and trust me, it’s worth the visit. I’ll also let you in on how we’re incorporating this dreamy spot into my upcoming French Riviera Retreat, including a golden hour dinner that will be very hard to rival and unlikely to forget!

✨ Whether you travel with me or venture out solo, I hope this episode inspires you to slow down, explore with intention, and fall in love with the parts of France that don’t always make the top 10 lists—but leave a lasting mark on your soul.

Visit thecuratedretreat.com to learn more about joining me on retreat, and if you go to St. Paul de Vence on your own… please let me know! I want to hear all about it.

This week, we’re trading the hustle of the Champs-Élysées for the hush of honey-colored stone and sunlit terraces.

In this episode of our “Skip Paris and…” series, I’m taking you to Gordes, a village that whispers luxury, lives slowly, and invites you to savor instead of scroll.

From its rich resistance-era history to a secret underground city and panoramic views that feel like a cinematic dream, Gordes isn’t just a destination...it’s an energy.

We’ll explore the beauty, the elegance, and the deep stillness that makes Gordes a soul-shifting experience.

I’ll also share:

Why Gordes is the ultimate example of quiet luxury
What happened when I took retreat guests to see the sunrise there (goosebumps!)
The 5-star hotel that’s carved into the cliffs—and dripping in elegance
The secret underground world hidden beneath the village that most tourists miss
And why Gordes is less “look at me” and more “come be with me”

If you’ve been craving more elegance, more ease, and more magic in your life this is the episode to light your fire.

Jump into this episode and we will chat about:

Welcome to the inaugural episode of our new monthly series for 2022, Lessons I Learned in France! Tune in every first Tuesday of the month as I (Colet here!) share all that France taught me during my most recent sojourn to the French Riviera!

Constantly inspired by the French art de vivre and chasing my own joie de vivre I find myself fueled by the culture and lessons of the French.

And don’t for one minute think that they are all serious and “soul searching,” because believe me, there are quite a few trivial lessons that had me really pondering cultural differences for a while!

Hope you enjoy!

Let's talk what it takes to really have a luxurious life.

We’ve all been scammed! Duped! Hoodwinked! At some point or another we’ve all been sold this idea that you only get one chance to live full out. You know…the whole, “once in a lifetime” narrative. It’s where you only get one opportunity in your life to do something worthwhile.

Spoiler alert…WRONG! It’s a scam!

Because we have been sold this wolf ticket, many of us have pressed pause or completely turned off our gusto for living. We have resigned ourselves to the “one day” mentality and determined that we will just wait for the “magical” time in our life when we can do what we want, live how we want and truly enjoy life. It’s B.S. And we are changing that, now!

Listen to this week’s episode to discover:

Why the idea of a “once in a lifetime” life event is sucking the joy from you
What Dead Butt Syndrome is and how it’s killing more than your rear end
The #1 lesson that came out of my quarter-life crisis
How your most difficult moment in life could be your only path to living the life you dream of
How to take back control of your dreams and make them happen whenever and as many times as you want.

Topics covered:

Living out your dreams, not just dreaming them
Dead Butt Syndrome
What the phrase, ‘once in a lifetime,’ truly means to our subconscious
Shifting our mindset around what is possible and available to us when it comes to creating happiness in our everyday life

Ever have that feeling like you just can't keep up with life? Like you are tired and can never catch your next wind? Yeah, I hear ya!

That is why we are tackling the topic of living seasonally!

See, eating seasonally will only get you so far, especially if you are not being purposeful about living and embracing not only the seasons of the calendar year, but also the seasons of your life!

Walk away from this episode being abundantly aware of:

The difference between seasonal living and seasonal eating
How making the decision to live seasonally can impact your life’s joy factor
What seasonal living truly looks like and the actions you can take each season to embrace every season as it presents itself

And of course, we will chat about how the French do this just a bit better than we do here in the States!

“Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth.” Henry David Thoreau

True entertaining is slowly becoming a lost art. In episode 50 of the Eat the Damn Bread podcast we explore the origins of the traditional and “proper” dinner party (it starts much earlier than you may believe) and what you can do to not only revive the art but become a premiere entertainer in your own right!

In this episode we chat about:

how the Greeks have influenced American culture more than we know
why Millennials are being blamed for the extinction of the dinner party
how to host an intimate affair with ease
why sending a text message as an invitation is an absolute no go, no matter how large or informal the event maybe
things NOT to do when hosting and entertaining
how to be a gracious guest when invited
The 'hostess gift' faux pas you mustn't make...and much more!

Ah! Croissants without the pants needing to be altered, the endless lunches accompanied by a glass a wine (without the judgmental stares) and strolls in beautiful medieval villages for no particular reason. Doesn’t that sound fabulous?!

What Francophile worth their salt hasn’t dream of a perpetual existence in this glorified version of life in France?!

Seriously though, life in France is by no means as glamorously scripted as a Grace Kelley and Cary Grant film along the coast of the French Riviera. However, you must admit, the French do know a thing or two about how to not only live but thrive…and they do it well..and in style!

This, my friends, is what we are exploring this week in episode 49 of the Eat the Damn Bread podcast!

In this episode I am sharing just 5 of the many actions you can borrow from the French culture and incorporate into your daily life to make your everyday feel more like a Parisian holiday, regardless of your actual location at the time!

Carrie Anne James, French coach extraordinaire, is an American expat who has found her own version of l’art de vivre after 6 years of living in and soaking up all that that the City of Light, Paris, France, has to offer.

Actress turned French teacher, Carrie Anne has merged her wonderings of French philosophy and love of the French language to make not only the acquisition of the French language, but the understandings of the culture, more relevant to her Francophone aspiring students.

The French Is Beautiful creator started the online learning community to inspire people through something she loved, the French language. Her approach to teaching the "Language of Love" is centered upon fluidity of the language and veers away from the perfection and stress producing marker of fluency.

In our conversation, Carrie Anne and I discuss life and the pathway that brought her to Paris, how her passion for French philosophy has kept her curious about the French culture and helps her better connect and understand their approach to l’art de vivre. We also touch on:

French traditions and culture which reflect the values of unity, beauty, respect, and family.
The interrelatedness of culture and language in the way we share human values, realities and behaviours.
Adopting and fully immersing oneself in the French lifestyle.
Learning how to live a joie de vivre lifestyle (translated to the "joy of living").
Carrie Anne's signature approach to the French language as an adult learner and tips on how to keep the passion alive between you and your yearning to acquire a new language.

A truly authentic conversation, sure to entrance you and pique your interest of the complexity and beauty of French culture and language, this episode is a must!

How to listen?

Grab your favorite tea or a glass of rosé on a lazy afternoon and enjoy the conversation as if you were en terrasse at Café de Flore in Paris. Or, multiple the speed of the audio and tune in on your commute! Either way you will not want to miss the enchanting conversation!

Find links to connect with Carrie Anne in the show notes, in addition to her French inspired playlist, favorite French songs of the moment, recommended philosophy books and much more over in the show notes!

There is a lot of pressure to look a particular way, aesthetically. That pressure can come from things we have conjured up in our heads as a result of looking at unrealistic images in popular culture, the media and on our social channels.

That is exactly what we are talking to our guest, Ashley, about this week. In episode 28 we explore the affects that working in the fitness industry can take on your psyche and just how to master that, regardless of where the input is coming from!

We discuss how to bust through the pretentiousness of the wine world and understand how to develop your palate, what to look for when branching out to find new flavor profiles and how a gal from Chicago finds herself as an expat living in Paris going on 6 years!

In this episode of Eat the Damn Bread we talk with self-care expert, Kelly Newsome Georges, of Ritual Care. We also dive into the misconceptions of self care and how true self-care can be ritualistic and be utilized as a tool to support you not just in the moment, but throughout your day.

Kelly also shares her wisdom around why we are in need of understanding the true essence of ritual care and how it can support us during this especially heightened time as we deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Of course, as Kelly currently lives in the South of France, we couldn’t leave without picking her brain about the differences between French and American women and how they approach this topic of self care!

Tune in to hear this wonderful interview and gather all types of gems to support you in not just surviving, but thriving!

Health and nutrition are always top priority in my book, and I many of us are especially considerate of it during the current COVID-19 crisis, as everyone is worried about their immune system.

The great thing is that if you attend to your health and wellness consistently, not just in high need times your body will take care of you. This is why it is so important to identify the specific diet that your body responds to and allows for you to maintain optimal health.

In today's episode I chat with Sophie Van Tiggelen from the blog, A Squirrel in the Kitchen. She is an authority on the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) who has authored several books on the subject and develops recipes specific for the protocol.

She shares with us exactly who can benefit from an AIP diet, why you should consider eating this way, even if you have no know autoimmune issues and gives us a wealth of resources for you to dig into to learn more!

In the states, vacation and holiday time can be limited, and therefore selecting how you spend this time is a high priority, and getting it right is crucial.

Retreats have become a viable option for vacation time over the past few years, but what makes a retreat the "thing-to-do" and why would you select a retreat over a traditional vacation and vice versa?

In this episode we discuss the difference between a retreat and vacation. We also go into detail about what makes a retreat worth the time and money. And of course, we connect it all to your overall well being.

Let me say that this topic is definitely on target and today is all about sharing the wellness practices of the French. A lot of these are going to come from French women, but guys out there, you can definitely utilize these! They are not necessarily gender specific.

It's all about how the French use these practices to live and create a life of elegance in the mundane and the minutia of it all. Now, let's not get it twisted, no matter where you live in the world. And no matter how your wellness practices are, there are still going to be tasks that come up requirements that can't be circumvented. And for me a laundry to fold that will make you feel less than tres chic by any means.

But, what I love most about the French wellness practices, and their approach to life is that it's bundled in this elegant fabric and it just makes it feel like a five star resort versus like an entry level hostel. So today my points of reference for our topic come from two of my favorite books from French authors.

In this episode I chat with a vegan to hear what it is really like to go from carnivore to herbivore, why she felt the need to do so, if it is a difficult lifestyle to maintain and if she has ever "cheated" on her eating habits!
