When I first got clean, I was really scared to be in certain types of kitchens, ones where, you know, the restaurant's typically nicer are usually where the cooks do the most drugs because it has the most.
Ever wondered what happens when two chefs in recovery sit down to chat without a script? In this episode of 'Stressful, but Successful,' Jake and J' dig into their archives to share one of their earliest, most raw conversations. Aptly titled 'Dumpster Fire,' this episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, insights, and unexpected laughs. Jake and J' dive into their career journeys, personal fears, mental health struggles, and even some quirky topics like lottery dreams and global issues.
Jake doesn't hold back as he opens up about his past life of cooking crack and how it shaped his path to becoming a chef. Meanwhile, J' shares her battles with staying focused and maintaining control in the high-pressure world of professional kitchens. They both reflect on the significance of personal growth and the crucial role it plays in their recovery. One key takeaway? Surrounding yourself with the right people and environments can make all the difference.
The duo also tackle fears of working in certain kitchen environments and the importance of finding joy and prioritizing self-care amidst the chaos. They don't shy away from heavier topics either, delving into global issues and women's reproductive health with the same candidness that makes their podcast so relatable. 'Dumpster Fire' is an unfiltered glimpse into the lives of two people who have turned their struggles into strengths.
It's a must-listen for anyone on a journey of personal growth, recovery, or simply looking for some heartfelt, honest conversation.
