Sabrina Rudin and Melissa Wood-Tepperberg in Conversation: Healthy with a Side of Happy

Spring Café Aspen has redefined plant-forward eating, earning praise from Vogue and a spot on Thrillist’s Best Vegan & Vegetarian Restaurants in NYC. Now founder Sabrina Rudin brings her philosophy to life in her debut cookbook, Healthy with a Side of Happy. Sabrina joins Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, wellness entrepreneur and founder of Melissa Wood Health (MWH), for an inspiring dialogue on plant-based living, conscious nourishment, and the mindset shifts that create real, lasting happiness. Come for the healthy food talk, stay for the perspective, and leave feeling energized, empowered, and deeply aligned. And because healthy always comes with a side of happy, Rudin reminds us: “The universe only ever has three answers: ‘yes,’ ‘not yet,’ or ‘I have something better in store for you.’” Recorded April 27, 2026 at The 92nd Street Y, New York.
