This week on It’s OK that You’re Not OK:
Tembi Locke: From Scratch
Tembi Locke lived an amazing love story: she met a handsome chef during a study abroad year in Italy when she was just 20 years old. They moved to LA to pursue Tembi’s acting career, and built a life around their love of food, family, and each other.
And then leiomyosarcoma arrived.
Is it still a Hollywood love story if it doesn’t have a happy ending?
In this episode we cover:
- Who’s the real couple behind the hit Netflix series, From Scratch?
- Why Tembi made sure From Scratch was an honest guide to profound loss
- How the sleeper hit show Eureka taught Tembi that it’s ok to let people help
- How Tembi Locke learned about the grief in Never Have I Ever only after the show came out
- Why you don’t have to know how it all works out before you get started.
