In this episode of Sacred Lessons, host Mike de la Rocha sits with acclaimed chef Eduardo “Lalo” García, the visionary behind Máximo in México City, for an important conversation about food, resilience, and the possibility of beginning again. From being deported from the United States to becoming one of Latin America’s most celebrated chefs, Lalo shares how hardship, determination, and a deep connection to food transformed his life. Together, Mike and Lalo explore how food can become medicine, how feeding others can be an act of love and service, and why our past does not have to define our future.
