Hearthbroken: Reviving Homemade Care and Connection in the Age of AI

What if the solutions to our most urgent modern crises, from soaring childhood obesity and chronic illness, to epidemic levels of anxiety, depression and loneliness, are right in front of us? Kathryn Lukas-Damer, fermented foods pioneer, best-selling cookbook author and co-host of the Hearth Matters podcast, argues that the cultural and economic devaluation of the care provided in our homes has profoundly weakened our collective wellbeing. Hearthbroken weaves memoir, historical analysis and cultural critique into a cautionary tale of how industrialization, second-wave feminism and the Market inadvertently hollowed out the domestic sphere — and unraveled the web of care that once sustained our human family. Insightful and fiercely hopeful, Hearthbroken charts a new path forward, positioning caregiving and homemaking as vital engines of economic resilience, social renewal and genuine human flourishing in our rapidly evolving digital world.
