In this episode of Fit for Freedom, I’m joined by someone who’s been a major influence in my professional journey—Megan Pashea. At just 23, Megan opened a "casual fine dining" restaurant with her fiancé and a love for hospitality. She was the 1st boss who trusted me with a management / leadership role, and the lessons I learned from her have shaped the way I approach work, leadership, and life.

Megan shares her inspiring journey as a young businesswoman, opening up about the challenges she’s faced and the wisdom she’s gained along the way. We dive into the true meaning of hospitality, why brand identity is critical, and how she fosters collaboration over competition. Plus, she talks about the importance of training and empowering young professionals to succeed.

This episode is packed with insights and actionable advice for anyone looking to lead with authenticity, build a strong brand, or create a positive impact in their work and community.
