Andy Hearnden—better known as Andy Cooks—is a digital chef with over 15 million followers across TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. With more than 20 years of professional kitchen experience, Andy’s mission is simple: to help people cook better food at home.


This episode is a raw, honest, and practical chat with someone who’s lived through it all and come out the other side with purpose, clarity, and a huge burst of creativity.


We spoke about his childhood, the highs and lows of working in some of the world’s top restaurants, overcoming alcohol addiction, losing his job, and how that setback became the turning point that launched his social media journey. And of course, I couldn’t help myself—I had to ask him about the oils and appliances he actually uses in the kitchen.
