Hello, world, welcome to discover your talent to do what you love.

Number 549.

I'm your host, Don Hutchison.

Every Monday and Wednesday, I interview someone from around the world who's discovered their talents to do work they love to create a life of success, satisfaction, and freedom.

She spent six months backpacking solo on a quest to discover where great food comes from and what to do with it. She harvested fruits and vegetables, then sold them

attended pastry school, and earned a certificate from Le Cordeaux in Paris. She now lives in

San Francisco, teaching sold-out French macaroon workshops, private chefing for special events,

and dreaming up new recipes for her blog, Food Lala.
