This edition ofThe Current features Tara Thomas, a Brooklyn-based chef, creative director, and host who has built a world where food becomes storytelling and gathering feels like an art form.
What we love most isn't her expertly curated aesthetic, it's her philosophy that luxury isn't about excess, it's about making people feel deeply considered. Every object, every ingredient, every detail has a purpose, yet nothing feels forced.
In a culture obsessed with optimization, Tara reminds us that beauty is often found in slowing down, setting the table with care, and creating spaces where people actually want to stay. Read on for the rituals, products, and mindset shifts currently shaping her world.
What’s your “current” right now?
The joy current, which feels natural to the summer season. It’s about feeling, living, and doing.
What’s one product, step, or practice you’ll never rush, no matter how busy you are?
Cleansing, it’s important to reset your mind, body, and space.
What’s a ritual you’ve returned to — or one you’ve let go of?
I’ve let go of the ritual of overthinking and allowing others to have power, the ritual of creating a dialogue has become so powerful for me to find harmony in my relationships. In that there’s a theme of prioritize myself, my sleep routine of having a shower, skincare, digestive tea, and ample hydration is a non negotiatiable .
What does luxury feel like to you at this exact moment and how does it show up in your everyday life?
Luxury is health, when I feel present and putting my nourishment, rest, and joy forward that is health.
How are you cleansing your energy right now?
Taking space and allowing time to be vast is how I cleanse my energy I find myself burning copal to cleanse my home. After that I can perform my ritual of a deep cleanse in the shower, my shower is my sanctuary.
What’s a trend or habit you wish people would unlearn immediately?
What has transformed my skin the most is nourishment, not even being strict honestly letting go and eating what you know feels good in your body. For me it’s fresh fruit, a meal balanced from all food groups, an icecream cone on a hot day. Let joy lead, not rigidness.
The ritual of joy will always win.
If you had to put someone onto one MARA product right now, what would it be?
Oh my goodness the body oil. It’s the cherry on top to a reset.
