In this week’s episode of Not Alone, Valeria sits down with lifestyle photographer, cookbook author, and content creator Chloé Crane-Leroux for an inspiring conversation about art, food, and finding balance in a world that never stops moving.Chloé opens up about her early years growing up in Montreal, always driven by a “five-year plan,” and a desire to create beauty. She shares her journey from the highs and challenges of the fashion industry to discovering a more soulful creative outlet in food photography and storytelling. Together, she and Valeria dive into burnout, creative ruts, and the pressures of the internet, while also exploring the rituals and meditations, like cooking, that ground her in joy.Chloé reflects on the vulnerability of sharing her life online, the profound loss that shifted her perspective, and why she no longer clings to rigid plans for the future. At its heart, this episode is a reminder that your life is your art and your canvas, and that creativity thrives not just in output, but in presence, connection, and growth.Follow Chloe on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chloecleroux/?hl=enTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chloecleroux?lang=enWebsite: https://www.chloecraneleroux.com/Get Chloe’s Recipes: https://www.chloecraneleroux.com/recipesShop Chloe’s Essentials: https://www.chloecraneleroux.com/chloes-essentialsChloe’s Book Recommendation: The Artist’s Way by Julia CameronShop my look from this episode: https://shopmy.us/shop/collections/2357926Follow me: https://www.instagram.com/valerialipovetsky/ What we talked about: Learn more about your ad choices.
