When faced with adversity we have two choices; 1) to do nothing, and just give up or 2) look at the adversity as an opportunity. If you are willing to step out of your comfort zone and follow your passion into new opportunities, the possibilities are endless. Our Guest for episode 08 is an inspiration to budding entrepreneur and mums across the world. Not even navigating kids, isolation and international time zones could stop Kat and Bec from sitting down and having a hilarious, raw and real conversation with Chef Cynthia Louise.
