    Sexy Job #3 - Chef and Entrepreneur

    For the third episode of Sexy Jobs with Julia Novis, I am joined by Laura Masson. I first met Laura a few years ago in London when she was getting her bachelor’s degree in nutrition. She has since done a plant-based cooking course at the Cordon Bleu, worked in a renowned plant-based restaurant in London, hosted incredible dinners, worked as a private chef, gotten a master’s in Marketing and opened her own cookie Business. We talked about all things cooking, the challenges of starting a small business and following an unconventional career path, and what her advice would be for young professionals who are unsure about taking the leap. Thank you for keeping up with the third edition of Sexy Jobs.
