SAVOURED
A monthly membership
A SANCTUARY WHERE WRITER’S CAN nurture THEIR CRAFT
for
food & LIFE writers
creatives & dreamers
My membership community THAT CREATES CONSISTENCY FOR DEVELOPING YOUR CRAFT OF FOOD & LIFE WRITING.
Savoured is a membership for writers who want to nurture and commit to their writing practice and craft.
Through a holistic blend of nourishing:
your body through seasonal recipes and rituals,
your mind through mindset support; and
your craft through writing prompts and exercises.
WHY SAVOURED?
From my years of being a food writer I know that as writers we need to be nourished in different ways so that we can really tap into our creative soul to produce good work. There is such a difference between wanting to write and being a writer. Sometimes we just need a community of like-minded people, a structured space that offers inspiration and ignites our creativity.
A writer’s retreat has always offered me such restorative energy, but writing retreats come to an end. I wanted to create an everlasting writing retreat - and that is what Savoured is.
A writers retreat - nurtured with great food, inspired by writing prompts, and encouraged by a creative community.
You’ll discover how my heritage has influenced my life in the UK, how I’ve adapted and infused my home spices into my new life on Scottish soil and how our stories shape who we are and lie at the centre of my cuisine – seasonal recipes for reset, rejuvenation and recovery.
Savoured shows you how to trust your intuition alongside ways to infuse spices into your food, featuring secrets that I have never shared before, ancestral recipes, techniques and tips, from my home to yours. So much more than cuisine, Savoured is about what’s on the table but also what lies within, with wellbeing at the heart of the community and the topics that we cover. Savoured enhances creativity and encourages lifestyle changes while sharing stories and weaving a thread of heritage throughout our virtual kitchen.
With a holistic lifestyle approach, Savoured offers a mindful way of living, following unique techniques for self-care, with wellbeing at the heart of what you’ll find inside.

Connection and intuitive cooking with wellbeing and creative writing folded into the mix.
In a world that is always switched on, this is about stepping back, taking it slow and savouring every second.
I would love to welcome you.
