On Your Terms®

63. Cooking, Overcoming Obstacles & Building an Empire [Guest Interview with Chef Mike Solomonov]


Listen Later

I’m all about getting outside of your industry for ideas and inspiration. Thinking outside the box has played a big part in the success of my business, and part of that has been incorporating the lessons I learn from all over and applying them to my business. You may also know that I love cooking. To that end, we’re going to be speaking with Chef Mike Solomonov! We talk about what success looks like for him, balancing all the different roles that come with being a chef, dealing with criticism and complaints, and—of course—some of his favorite meals.

In this episode, you’ll hear…

  1. 03:20 - How Chef Solomonov balances his different roles
  2. 05:49 - How COVID changed Mike as a business owner
  3. 10:43 - Where Mike gets his inspiration for business and meal ideas
  4. 20:18 - Dealing with the pressure to make more money versus staying authentic
  5. 29:30 - Becoming a resource for addiction support and starting a business during a difficult time
  6. 35:33 - Not letting the awards or the critics get to your head
  7. 41:26 - What success looks like to Mike
  8. 44:04 - Q&A: The food Mike eats at home, new restaurants, and more
