Me, Myself & Irene: A Multifaceted Perception of a Sweet & Salty Reality

Meet Vishnu Vaka: the self-proclaimed “7-Eleven Guy” not the “Techy Guy.”

Vishnu has been in the comedy game for over 7 years now and he is not afraid to poke fun at the very stereotypes he experiences himself. Vishnu also gives an idea of where the “dumb blonde” stereotype came from & find out why he’s proud elephants come from India.

Vishnu shares his early experiences of public speaking, how the strains of the comedy business can affect a marriage & how moving a lot as a child has its benefits and downsides.

Even though he hasn’t listened to any of my episodes yet, I’m so grateful Vishnu was open to talk about his life & share his story on this very special episode of Me, Myself & Irene.

I may only have 30 something episodes under my podcast belt but it’s only just begun. Before moving forward, a look back at some of the first tunes I made and I share what the podcast is really all about. Thanks for listening & joining Me, Myself & Irene on this wild journey.

What are your fears? I have a plethora of them.

In this episode, I’m talking about my fears of cooking, calibrating thermometers & what gets talked about at my dinner table.

Periods suck. And I’m tired of not talking about it. From crotch diapers to clotty to spotty, I’m talking drip pans, OB tampons & I share a story that involves kitchen tongs & kegel muscles.

In Part 2 of this convo, Chef Lauren shares how Baking is “Sprinkled into her Spirit” and now incorporates that on her menus by offering simple desserts, as a cherry on top. With innovative combinations like Zucchini Cupcakes, Carrot Flan & Parsnip Creme Brûlée, Chef Lauren keeps her veggies a part of every meal. Talk about Sweet & Salty.

When she’s not in the Kitchen, Chef Lauren is hitting the track with well-known sprinters and elite runners from her hometown, which she refers to as “Training with Super Humans.” Chef Lauren has also started private ballet lessons in her spare time.

“How you do one thing is how you do everything,” Chef Lauren touches on healthy habits & how to help your Will Power succeed.

Also, find out what four ingredients are a MUST in Chef Lauren’s kitchen, what veggie you’ll find in her freezer & how does Chef Lauren feel about Cannibus Cookies?

Stick around after for some bonus material: What are “Line Chops?” & Chef Lauren gives us some more details on her business.

After “jumping off the corporate ladder,” and diving into an “ocean of freedom,” Chef Lauren is cooking it up with her Personal In-Home Chef business that specializes in healthy and delicious meals. From Hostess to Adjunct Professor to Five-Diamond Restaurants, Chef Lauren took her all of her experience to catapult her into her life-long dream of being an Entrepreneur & achieving her personal goals despite, at one time, being the only woman in the Kitchen.

Chef Lauren offers Personal In-Home Chef Date Nights, Zoom Calls, Cooking Classes, Small Catered Events & she is just getting started. Chef Lauren lets us in on her plans for a store front, what it’s like living in her Hometown and how to lessen the crying when cutting an onion.

Known for her positivity & uplifting mantras, Chef Lauren says, “It’s a beautiful day to get better.” And after listening to this one, your day is sure to be a better one.

Chef Lauren’s story is real, inspiring and I’m forever grateful to have had this time with such a wonderful person.

I’m talking about the Sweet & Saltiness of having time off, facing the facts and changing routines.
