In this episode of the Sincerely, Future You Podcast, Coach Jess speaks with Happster and Private Chef Tina DeJesus about how she went from stuck, to scheduled, to booked and busy. After cooking for the one and only JLo, Chef Tina knew that being a private chef was her calling. Like real ‘Jenny from the Block’ style, she just knew it would work even without stellar proof. Now, she shares the experience of how she landed the job as JLo’s private chef, why scheduling is more than just time management, what allowed her to confidently pay all her student loans, and more.
In this episode you will learn:
- Landing a job solely because of reference and work ethic
- Qualification is a very subjective thing
- Why you shouldn’t say, “I don’t know what to do!”
- Scheduling is not just about managing time
- What’s next for the VegHeadChef?
About Chef Tina DeJesus:
For the past six years, Chef Tina DeJesus has been working as a high-end private chef in the Hamptons, hosting yoga retreats, doing meal preparation, & teaching cooking classes.
Chef Tina was formally trained at Le Cordon Bleu, where she learned the art of French cuisine. Right after graduating, she worked in a fine-dining seafood restaurant, gaining experience as a line cook. From there, her career leads her to cater large events & intimate dinner parties.
While she followed her passion as a cook, Chef Tina also split her time with working as a lead server, bartender, & Maitre D, making her the perfect host.
Spending over ten years working in hospitality led Tina to live an unhealthy lifestyle of late nights followed by sleeping all day and repeating the same cycle. She decided to change her way of living in 2013, where she dove into all thing’s vegetarian, nutrition, mental health, and yoga.
Which led her to create VegHead Chef, where she now creates seasonal plant-based meals that are suited to fit any lifestyle, dietary restriction, & unique preferences. All the while keeping it nutritious and simple!
