Episode notes
In this episode of The Art of Connection, Yana sits down with Mikka Richter, founder of The Hearth Café & Providore in Mudgeeraba, QLD. What began as a dream and an online offering has become a soulful bricks-and-mortar space where food, family, and community weave together. Mikka shares how her maternal line of women shaped her love of cooking, why food is more than fuel, and what it takes to follow a dream that carries both risk and profound reward. Together, they explore nourishment as an art form, the courage required to create something bigger than yourself, and the magic of spaces that feel like a warm hug; places where connection, care, and creativity come alive.
