Sufism & the oldest organic vegan restaurant in NYC's East Village Caravan Of Dreams Angel on EP87 Yonkers Westchester County

🌿 The Essence of Sufism & Healing Through Food | Talk About It With Friends 🎙️ In this powerful episode of Talk About It With Friends, I sit down with Angel, the owner of Caravan of Dreams, the oldest organic and vegan restaurant in East Village, NYC. Originally from Spain, Angel’s journey brought him to New York City after following a Sufi master, leading him to a life dedicated to spirituality, healing, and conscious living. In this conversation, Angel dives deep into: ✨ What Sufism really is—a mystical path of love, inner peace, and universal truth. ✨ The connection between food and healing—how conscious eating nourishes both the body and soul. ✨ Why we shouldn’t eat mechanically—the importance of patience, mindfulness, and presence in eating. ✨ The story behind Caravan of Dreams—the meaning and inspiration behind the restaurant’s name. ✨ Alchemy & transformation—insights from Angel’s father, who was an alchemist. ✨ The miracle of existence—why simply being alive is something to cherish and explore deeply. ✨ The importance of meditation—how it helps cultivate inner awareness and spiritual connection. ✨ Why all religions share the same essence—a universal perspective on faith and spirituality. Angel’s wisdom extends far beyond food—his teachings offer profound insights into mindfulness, presence, and living with intention. Whether you’re interested in spirituality, conscious eating, or personal growth, this episode is packed with valuable lessons that will shift your perspective. 🎧 Watch now and step into the Caravan of Dreams! 🔔 Don’t forget to LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more thought-provoking conversations!

Brooklyn’s own Pretty Pitcher joins Talk About It With Franjez for a deep and unfiltered conversation about his past, his music, and his future. Hailing from Bed-Stuy, Pretty Pitcher built his name in the streets, trapping up and down the East Coast—so much so that he spent $3,000 on tolls in just one year. But now, he’s leaving that life behind to fully focus on his passion: music.

He also takes us inside his unique mobile music studio, which he carries in a carry-on luggage everywhere he goes. No matter where he lands, he makes sure to set up a small foldable black table at every location—always ready to create. From his home studio setup to sourcing beats from trusted producers, Pretty Pitcher is all about turning his vision into reality. Beyond the music, we also break down the meaning behind his name—how “Pretty” came from the ladies and “Pitcher” is a nod to his past in the streets.
