Between Farm and Fork: Journey to Find a True Path (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798889264484)

Part memoir, part guidebook, Between Farm and Fork is a inspiring and heartfelt exploration of resilience, identity, and finding your way back to what truly matters.

Dr. Janel Louise Ohletz-scientist, chef, and storyteller-invites readers into an intimate account of a life marked by both challenge and transformation. At the peak of her career as a chef and innkeeper, Janel's world came crashing down. A painful divorce, financial hardship, and a frightening health crisis left her questioning everything she had built. But in the wreckage, she discovered something far more powerful than success: the ability to rebuild from within.

Rooted in her expertise as a PhD in Soil Science and her work in regenerative agriculture, Janel's story draws profound parallels between the health of the land and the healing of the self. Through honest reflections on childhood trauma, personal setbacks, and professional reinvention, she uncovers the "toolbox" we each carry-skills like tenacity, courage, and self-trust-that so often get buried beneath fear and self-doubt.

From her rugged beginnings on a New Hampshire subsistence farm to the intensity of fine dining and entrepreneurial life, her journey reminds us that failure is not the end, but a necessary part of becoming whole. With vivid storytelling, practical wisdom, and even a few comforting recipes, Between Farm and Fork offers a path forward for anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to reconnect with their purpose.

This is a book for those in midlife and beyond who are reevaluating their direction and asking, "What now?" It's for those ready to stop chasing someone else's definition and start uncovering their own true path to success.

If you're seeking clarity, courage, and a deeper connection to your own story-Between Farm and Fork will meet you exactly where you are, and walk with you toward where you want to be.
