Teya Kepila Of The Turmeric Times Is Wise Beyond Her Years

Today’s guest is Teya Kepila, the storyteller behind The Turmeric Times and founder of The Ceramics Ceremony. Her approach to ceramics is deeply sensory—rooted in breath, ritual, nourishment, and a desire to make objects that support daily care. Whether she’s creating a vessel, crafting a plant-based recipe, or writing about intimacy and intuition, Teya brings an intentionality that radiates through everything she creates. Teya joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about how ceramics first found her as a teenager, her commitment to plant-based eating, how Ayurveda influences her cooking, her connection to movement and meditation, and her gratitude-driven approach to the new year. We also get into creativity, community, slowing down, and what it means to build a life that honors your energy rather than drains it. Thank you to JW Marriott for supporting our show.
