Finding Your Passion at 30: How Becoming a Chef Saved Me
In this episode of Sips & Secrets, we talk about what nobody tells you: sometimes your passion doesn’t show up until you’re 30… and that’s totally okay.
We get real about chasing dreams later in life, working for 50+ years (and how that thought alone can humble you 😅), partnerships that go sour fast, and why travel, cookbooks, and constant trial-and-error might actually be the secret sauce to figuring life out.
It’s messy. It’s hilarious. It’s inspiring.
And if you’ve ever felt “behind,” this one’s for you.
