Ina Garten confidently emphasized the importance of trusting her own vision during her discussion with Oprah Winfrey. In the December 24 episode of The Oprah Podcast, she shared her approach while navigating her career without succumbing to comparisons with Martha Stewart.

Garten expressed, "Just trust your vision. If you remain true to who you are, someone will believe in it too." This message highlights her conviction to be authentic. Since releasing The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook in 1999, Garten has maintained her unique identity rather than trying to fit into someone else's mold.

Throughout her career, Garten faced comparisons with Stewart, who began her lifestyle empire with *Entertaining* in 1982. This, in turn, led to Stewart's significant influence, bringing forth numerous cookbooks, television shows, and magazines.

Garten remarked, "I'm not gonna become this perky person that people will love. Put out who you are, and do your best work." She believes authenticity fosters trust and admiration from audiences.

Garten has previously addressed speculation regarding a disagreement with Stewart. During a live Q&A at PEOPLE's offices on December 5, she refuted claims that she ended her friendship with Stewart in 2004 when Stewart went to prison. "Her story isn't exactly accurate," Garten clarified with a smile, playfully stating, "I think it's time to let it go."

Their paths crossed in the Hamptons during the 1990s, where Garten wrote for "Martha Stewart Living." Stewart also helped Garten connect with publishers for her inaugural cookbook, illustrating their earlier collaboration.

Earlier, SSP wrote that Jay Leno revealed a disturbing sleep routine.
