Have you ever wondered what it would be like if your dreams came true? 

What if your dream was to have a TV Show with Gordon Ramsay? What would you do to make it happen?

Nyesha Arrington, an American chef, television star, activist, and entrepreneur, joins us on the Greatness Machine to share her story of figuring out what she wanted to do in life and how she realized her purpose at a very young age.

Nyesha has long admired Gordon Ramsay as a culinary icon and mentor and dreamed of working alongside him, learning from his expertise, and gaining valuable insights into the art of cooking. 

Fast forward to 2022, and that dream became a reality when she said yes to joining “Next Level Chef,” where she, Gordon Ramsay, and Richard Blais serve as mentors to the chosen home cooks, social media chefs, and culinary professionals.

In this episode, Darius and Nyesha talk about the keys to achieving goals, the many benefits of doing what you really love, and why it is important to go above and beyond when doing something.
