Private Chef Josh Champion of Take It Personal Chef Service grew up in rural Western Kentucky hunting and fishing. 

After completing his culinary education at Le Cordon Bleu in Orlando, FL, Chef Josh began his career as an Executive Sous Chef, working at several venues in Louisville, KY, and Nashville, TN. He catered for multiple private events for music, sports, and film industry professionals. 

In 2016 Chef Josh, his wife Natasia, and their three children moved to Florida's Emerald Coast along the 30a corridor and began working as a private chef. 

Chef Josh and I recorded this episode in a gourmet kitchen in the Wild Heron community near Rosemary Beach, FL. In addition to our conversation about the culinary and music industries (Josh also pursued a career as a Nashville songwriter), he cooked three amazing appetizers for our group, all of which were amazing!
