  • Episode 38: The "Grits" Factor - Why Character Counts
    Oct 9 2024

    How much does character count?

    In this episode of Seared, I discuss how we tend to measure someone's character, the importance of overcoming limiting beliefs, and the power of strong character in overcoming adversity.

    I share stories of some of my culinary students who triumphed over challenges thanks to their unwavering character. I also explore the difference between hiring someone with great skills but poor character versus someone with weaker skills but exceptional character.

    Discover why character is often more valuable than technical ability in the long run.

  • Epsiode 37: Nuturing Your Energy And Your Soul In The Storm
    Oct 2 2024

    In this episode, I emphasize the importance of guarding your energy, particularly during times of global turmoil and natural disasters. Our sensitivity, while a superpower, can be easily overwhelmed by the negative energy surrounding us.

    It's crucial to prioritize self-care and tend to our own needs.

    By moving our bodies, engaging in activities that fill our cups, and managing our energy levels, we can avoid getting drained by the world's problems. I share my personal experience of feeling depleted due to neglecting self-care and the impact it had on my physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

    Remember, we can hold space for others, but we cannot bear the weight of the world. It's essential to manage our own energy and prioritize our well-being.
