Welcome to Active Ingredient - a podcast and platform for those of us who are in the process of co-creating lives and businesses that feel rooted, expansive, resonant and true to us. I'm your host, Sophie Weill, and I'm a deeply curious human who is also on my own journey of co-creating a life and businesses that are true to me. I'm the founder of Nude Nation, a creative brand building agency as well as the co-founder of Piano Piano, a tableware brand rooted in slowing down and coming alive.
I've spent my entire career building and amplifying brands and the humans behind them and what I have come to understand is that the inner work precedes the outer growth and that everything in life is a mirror of our internal state which is precisely what we're here to connect on.
Welcome to Active Ingredient - I am so glad you're here.

Today we have the incredible Danielle Mainas, who is an artist, a very intuitive soul, a mother, a tarot card reader and one of the co-founders of Cacio e Pepe tarot - a tarot card brand rooted in connection, food, artistry, joy, presence and spirituality. We don't get into what tarot is until later on in the conversation so for those of you who don't know high level tarot is a tool for self discovery and introspection - it originated in Milan in the 1400s as a game and then evolved into a tool for self exploration. The way that Cacio e Pepe presents the 78 cards is in the form of a unique food, dish, or culinary concept that represents the card. For example, the pancakes card is their take on the 6 of cups and moules frites is their take on the queen of wands. It is truly one of the most beautiful tools that you can just feel was created with so much love - I have mine on my coffee table and it just makes me so happy to look at every day.
In this conversation we dive deep the entire time and are talking about spirituality, self exploration, deconditioning religious programming, accessing higher levels of our brains, quieting enough to listen to our True voice and ultimately gently getting to a place where we are putting the power back in our own selves vs. outsourcing it to external structures.
