Have you asked yourself this question in recent years: "What am I going to do with the rest of my life?".

At this stage in the game it is only natural that we take a retrospective glance on the careers we've built and the families we are raising. Asking ourselves if what we are doing right now will continue to serve us, if it brings us joy, if it provides in a way that aligns with our lives.

Guest Abby Gray, a renowned and respected private Chef, cooking school owner, and leader of culinary adventures, who was mentored by the likes of Master Chef's Todd English and Jacques Pépin, joins us in this 2-part series to share her own journey of rediscovery and reclamation.

In part 1 (today's episode), Abby lays out her anything but straight and narrow career history. Starting out as a Legislative Assistant & Director of Seminars for a political magazine on Capital Hill, spending years in Event Planning at a media organization before owning the European market-style store "Olivia Browning" in the Boston-area waterfront community of Charlestown. Meeting her best friend and love of her life, who she has greatly partnered with in all areas of life. All before becoming the Chef she is today.

Next week Abby shares a deeper take into owning a small business, the delicate balance of work and family life, and a whole lot of incredible encouragement for us that want to make a switch but are feeling under-qualified.
