Food Under Fire

thank you for listening.

i love you all.

see you again soon.

until then... farewell <3

Today’s monologue was delivered in one take with no script.

These are my raw, visceral thoughts on the matter.

I was feeling a bit emotional when making this, but make no mistake: I would still love to be involved in media, content creation, and food.

I just need to take a step back and reconsider where I’m going and what I want.

Thank you for listening and I promise this won’t be the last time you hear from me.

Stay tuned next week for the final interview with Ann Kim.

After that? Who knows.

But I’m excited.

Can a croissant change your life? Yes. Yes, it can. Don’t believe me? Ask these two women: Alexandra Motz and Diane Moua, renowned pastry chefs in the Twin Cities hospitality scene.

Their recent promotions within Gavin Kaysen’s hospitality company, Soigne, sent a clear signal to everyone who works in food: women are coming for leadership roles. Motz was granted pastry lead at Spoon & Stable and Diane Moua has been tasked with growing the up-and-coming Bellecour Bakery brand.

On the cusp of their new jobs, I wanted to see how they were feeling with the added responsibility.
