Show Notes
Restaurant life is emotional! Heidi Modra recently sold Pinotta after 14 years of looking after community, and thinking about her business day and night. She’s now an employee at Ophelia, adjusting to cafe rhythms and steering the ship as they open for nights. The transition was necessary but there’s rawness and grief along with reflection and relief.
