    Ep 21 : Sandra Gutierrez : Food Historian, Chef & Cookbook Writer

    This conversation is full of knowledge, history, and wisdom. I'm excited to share this beautiful talk with Sandra Gutierrez, a bilingual, award-winning journalist, food historian, professional cooking instructor, and author of six cookbooks. She is considered one of the top national experts on Latin American Foodways and on the United States Southern Regional cuisine. Sandra discovered the New Southern-Latino culinary movement in 1996, a rare and impressive achievement.  In 2021, Gutierrez was honored by the Smithsonian Institute as a Woman to Know and as one of the seven Latinas Who Shaped American Culture. Sandra also has a permanent exhibit at the Smithsonian, which features Kate Blohm Photography.  Her most recent book, Latinísmo: Home Recipes from the Twenty-One Countries of Latin America is the first of its kind. Also, her first book, The New Southern-Latino Table is being re-released in paperback in August 2025.  Sandra is also a founding member of the Les Dames d’Escoffier NC chapter.  Shop her books now at your local bookstore.  Follow her on Instagram : @sandralatinista Support the show

    Ep 20 : Hannah Jane Dantzscher : Creating a Wake

    Hannah Jane Dantzscher is the Owner of Wake Refill, a zero waste business whose mission is to pair environmental care with compassion and education, serving the place that she’s always called home. Hannah Jane grew up in Charleston, South Carolina, where she fell in love with the natural beauty of the Lowcountry. Boating, sailing, and learning about local and global ecosystems have always been some of her favorite pastimes. This connection to nature has deeply influenced the way she lives, and the values that shape her business practices today. Hannah Jane studied International Studies with a focus on Latin America at the College of Charleston. During that time, she spent semesters living in Cuba, Chile and Argentina. Alongside these studies, she dove into the systems of global trade and waste trade. This is where she fundamentally shifted the way she thought about consumerism and how the things we buy, use, and throw "away" are connected to people and places far beyond our view, often at great cost. Today we’ll discuss the different ways to be a mindful consumer and the small shifts that can create a big wake.  Learn more | https://wakerefill.com/ Support the show

    Ep 19 : Using your Creativity in Business : Kayla Twomey Flamman

    Kayla Twomey Flamman is the owner of Miller Gallery in Charleston, SC. Her love for art started during her childhood, growing up in Greenville, SC. After completing her Bachelor's from High Point University and Master's from Webster University, she started working in contemporary fine art galleries across the South, which eventually led her to owning one herself. Kayla also paints from her home studio in Charleston, with her husband and pup, Finn. Her surroundings often inspire her artworks, ranging from skyscapes to still lifes. Her ultimate goal is to bring joy to the moments in our everyday lives through art. In this conversation, we discuss what it takes to acquire and run a small business while staying balanced and forward-thinking. We also get into the details of pivoting careers, the behind-the-scenes of the gallery world, and all the many ways art shows up in our lives. This May, Miller Gallery will feature Kate Blohm Photography in a group show, Al Fresco, in collaboration with Textile Designer and Painter Teresa Roche, and Fine Art Painter Rachael Reese.

    Ep 15 : Julia Kesler Imerman : Scaling Business with Vision

    On this episode of Subject Matters, I am so excited to sit down with my dear friend, Julia Kesler Imerman. Over the years, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to witness Julia build her own hospitality empire, known as Daily Chew and Stop Think Chew. From her innovative meal prep business to wholesale production and owning a bustling cafe open seven days a week, Julia has adeptly pivoted with demand while maintaining a clear vision for creating a space for people to gather. With hospitality at the forefront of her endeavors, Julia creates welcoming spaces that invite everyone to enjoy delicious, thoughtfully prepared food. Since we first met, she has made remarkable business moves, and I’ve been privileged to watch (and capture) this progression in real-time. Join us as we discuss her journey, through her priority of sourcing, and how her South African roots have inspired her approach to food. Whether you’re a food enthusiast, an aspiring entrepreneur, or simply curious about the cafe culture in Atlanta, this episode is filled with insights and inspiration.
