Don't worry - you won't find tears or maudlin goodbyes.

But what I do share is how it's important to stay committed to what you enjoy, to stand in purpose, and to not give up on trying new things.

Life is experienced throughout creative expression - what is yours to be?

What will you lend your heart to? What will bring it joy and peace through turbulent times, and times of quiet?

This podcast has been an oasis for me while going through tough times, and while there were times I did want to quit, I never did. I wanted to finish strong, and this is where we are now.

It's been a delight to be here with you, and I share my final thoughts in this insightful and invigorating episode.

Love, Paul

Ever wonder why we sometimes know what's best for us, but still struggle to do it?

In the latest (penultimate!) episode of Seared: Stories From the Stove, I'm exploring this as I reflect on my journey to 14 years of sobriety and the myth of the alcoholic chef. I used to look back with regret, wishing I'd changed sooner.

But I've learned that we often go where feels safe, even if it's not serving us. This episode is about appreciating our past selves for getting us through, no matter how bumpy the ride. It's about recognizing the lessons learned and embracing our present, wiser selves.

Tune in for a candid conversation with a powerful message for YOU.

Ever wonder about the difference between a cook and a chef? It's not just about the kitchen, homie! While cooks excel at following recipes and executing tasks, chefs lead, create, and innovate. They do the cheffy things.

This distinction goes beyond culinary skills; it's a mindset. A 'cook' mindset in daily life focuses on routine and consistency, while a 'chef' mindset embraces creativity, strategic planning, and adaptability.

Think about it: are you just following the recipe of your life, or are you designing your own unique menu? (Gluten-free, if you must)

By adopting a 'chef' mindset, you can transform your approach to personal growth. Challenge your routines, set ambitious goals, and embrace change. Shift from passively living to actively designing your life. Cultivate creativity, develop leadership skills, and seek innovative solutions to everyday challenges.

Just like a chef elevates ingredients into something that is greater than the sum of the parts, you can elevate your life experiences by using the leadership skills of a chef.

Are you ready to step into the role of the chef of your own life? Listen to my latest podcast episode to learn more about this! And of course, I offer coaching around this to help you step into your "inner chef"!
