The Unexpected Power of Pie, Memory, and Human Connection with Beth Howard

The Unexpected Power of Pie, Memory, and Human Connection with Beth Howard

What if the smallest, simplest things...are the ones that carry us through the hardest moments?


In this episode of Roar, Danielle sits down with writer and pie baker Beth Howard for a conversation that starts with something light, and becomes something much deeper.


Because at first glance, pie doesn't feel like a serious topic. But in Beth's world, it means more than one thing.


What began as baking became something else entirely, including a way to process loss, connect with others, and move through moments that don't always have easy answers.


Danielle and Beth explore what it looks like to turn something simple into something meaningful, and how everyday acts can become a form of care, connection, and healing.


Together, they talk about:

  • How something as simple as baking can take on deeper meaning
  • The connection between creativity and grief
  • Why working with your hands can help process emotions
  • The role of ritual in a technological world
  • Letting go of perfection and focusing on presence
  • How sharing something small can create connection
  • The accessibility of simple acts, no expertise required
  • What it means to do something when there are no words

Beth's perspective reminds us that we don't always need big solutions. Sometimes we just need something to do with our hands, our attention, and our care.


Key Takeaways:

  • Simple acts can carry deep meaning
  • Creativity can be a tool for processing grief.
  • You don't need expertise to create something meaningful.
  • Ritual can provide grounding during difficult times.
  • Connection often comes through sharing small things.
