Aarti Sequeira Opens Up About Mental Health and Her Journey to a Career in Food

Aarti Sequeira, season six winner of Food Network Star, spills the tea on motherhood, mental health and how food brings us all together. This week on Food Network Obsessed, host Jaymee Sire talks with Aarti Sequeira about how the “food memories” of our past actively shape our future. She shares what it was like growing up in Bombay and Dubai, and how the weekly fish market trips with her family sparked her lifelong journey of collecting one-of-a-kind food experiences. Aarti walks us through how she successfully transitioned beyond a career in journalism to follow her real passion: Food. She shares the correlation between food and mental health, and recounts how she overcame her own battle with postpartum depression.
