This week’s difficult woman is the chef Olia Hercules, who before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, was mainly known for celebrating Eastern European cuisine through her recipes. In 2022 she co-founded the #CookForUkraine initiative, and later released her family memoir ‘Strong Roots: A Ukrainian Family History Through War, Exile and Hope’. Olia joins Rachel on the week of the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion, in a heavy and honest discussion about how the war has changed her life.
