This episode was created from my heart ♥ for you.Yoda's journey into cooking begins with playing in the dirt at my childhood home in Thorndale, Ontario. I started navigating my way through the restaurant scene, and later became a Red Seal Chef, restaurateur and private caterer. I've always loved food and once I got a taste for professional cooking and entrepreneurship, I always knew this is what I wanted to do with my life!I was raised as your typical 'country' kid... I played in the dirt, always had to help with the chores, and I considered eating cherry tomatoes right off the porch plant an 'after school snack.' I wasn't an incredibly adventurous eater, but was lucky enough to have parents that cared about food. My mom was always a great cook - I have fond memories of making onion buns with her in the winter to go alongside hearty stew (I can still smell those onions!) My dad became a great cook a little later in life, but was always picking carrots out of the ground and encouraging us to take a bite - dirt and all. He has the greatest green-thumb of anyone I know! His garden today is full of meyer lemons, tomatoes of all colours and he even has an avocado tree in his office! If you’ve ever had food from Yoda’s Kitchen, you’ve had food grown from my dad’s garden!My decision to become a chef came to me in my late teens after my parents separated and, after many meals of Kraft Dinner (eek!), my dad and I decided that one of us would have to learn. I took it on as a hobby and quickly realized that I had immense passion for it. I enrolled in Niagara College's Chef Training program that summer and off I went.Fast forward a few years to my apprenticeship under Chef Alfred Estaphan at Sunningdale Golf Course in London. I'd been in the restaurant scene as a line cook at a few different establishments, and I'd begun to find my style as a young chef - I understood the importance of shopping locally, cooking seasonally and making things from scratch. It was during this time that I decided to do a bit of traveling so I took off to Australia for several months. I made enough money to keep traveling by picking macadamia nuts, making candy with a traveling brittle connoisseur and eventually got a job training under a pastry chef on a huge beach resort with a view of the ocean. It was pure bliss. I was missing home though, and after a short trip across Canada to visit the west coast, I came back and settled in London.While working at some of the city's best restaurants (Braise and The Only on King to name a few) and working part time at Fanshawe College as a lab technician in the Culinary Department, I decided to give catering a go. I developed a business plan in 2010 and it was my Five Year Plan to quit my restaurant job and start catering full time. This dream became a reality in a short 8 months. My dreams were coming true!During my time as a professional caterer, I had the chance to cater so many amazing events, meet many wonderful people and helped change people's lives. Along the way I had many, many challenges, but got to cater some pretty crazy events. I have catered in an open field with no running water or electricity. I've catered on a moving train. I've catered a surprise engagement in the middle of Springbank Park and a walnut fell and shattered one of my dessert plates! I've been blessed to be invited into many of your homes, and will always consider my time as a private caterer as one of the greatest times of my life.In 2016 while my catering company was soaring, I decided to do what no one thought I would do... I opened a restaurant! In May 2016, we opened the doors of Glassroots. During the time Glassroots was open, we achieved many wonderful awards and accolades. We won Our London's "Best Restaurant" and "Best Patio" contest, and we were also named "London's Best Kept Dining Secret" by The London Free Press in their 2017 Reader's Choice contest. It was an interesting 16 months to say the least! I had the most wonderful staff, but restaurant life was incredibly different than catering, and very challenging. You can read more about the full story in my best selling book “Salt and Sour.” (Click here to get your copy)After much thought and soul searching, I decided to leave the restaurant world and return to catering. Before doing so, I took a bunch of time off to work on my book, travel and spend time with family, and in Spring 2018, I relaunched Yoda's Kitchen 2.0! I am currently located at 1010 Dundas Street, behind the Booch retail store. You can currently find me at pop ups around the city, monthly cooking classes at Jill’s Table, eating lunch at Curley Brew Co, or delivering Little Green Meals around the city. I love partnering with other local businesses, playing with my dog Gnowee, writing poetry and of course, cooking dinner for friends.Website: https://www.letyodacookforyou.com/ This is a public episode.

This episode was created from my heart ♥ for you.There are hundreds of books that teach us how to be a “leader”. Most of them are good and teach the right things. But, Tom Lawrence has seen very few that teach us how to influence our people, or take our personal growth seriously, or even lead if you’re not in a “leadership position”.Tom Lawrence wants to change that by writing books for people who are interested in leading and inspiring others.He wants to help people who are not in a leadership position but are aspiring to become a leader, current managers who want to take the next step and become highly effective leaders, and to help senior leaders enhance their leadership skills.Tom began his career in 1999 as an apprentice mechanical engineer, working for an automotive company in Liverpool, UK.After completing his apprenticeship he was made redundant from that company and had to find other work, that is when he joined the rail industry working for Merseyside’s train operator. He worked there for six years, and during that time he achieved his degree in mechanical engineering, his master’s degree in maintenance engineering, and he started his first leadership role as a project manager in 2009.After leaving Liverpool in 2011, he has worked in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London where he currently lives. Tom became a chartered engineer in 2013 and is a mentor for new and upcoming engineers working towards their chartership. Working in these different cities he had remained within the rail industry and led different types of engineering teams, learning and practicing different leadership styles.To visit Tom’s website head over to www.highlyeffectiveleader.com This is a public episode.

With the goal of showing people how to go home from work every day feeling excited for tomorrow, I teach them how to courageously tackle new challenges with creativity and unrelenting drive.Since I was born without arms, I became fascinated by the limitless ways the human body can adjust to a variety of circumstances. I utilized dormant physical traits to adapt and use my feet the way people use their hands. As I learned to conquer physical barriers, I developed mental skills that allowed me to go on to achieve the seemingly impossible in my own, unique way.-JessicaBefore you can achieve anything, you must first believe it IS possible. You must somehow convince your mind and your body that what you perceive as impossible can actually BE achieved. Challenging? Yes – but not impossible.Jessica faced impossibilities from an early age leading her to develop Possible Thinking®. Possible Thinking is a process that allows us to believe the impossible is possible and to creatively ask ourselves HOW we can achieve what seems impossible at first. Possible Thinking converts obstacles to achievements using Jessica’s Achieve Model™.Since 2005, Jessica has been challenging people to achieve their impossible dreams. She’s worked as an inspirational speaker with companies like Boeing, State Farm, Proctor & Gamble, and Johnson & Johnson.

This exploration formed his desire to help people and organizations be the best they can be. Paul is a straight talker who reframes perceptions and provokes change conversations so that leaders can make a difference and deliver results.Paul is focused on defining the true intention and purpose of an organization in order to align around a preferred future. While he sees value in challenging the status quo, he is a trusted client collaborator and a key influencer of how leaders are shaping the future workplace. He has operated as a leader within big firms based in the UK and Canada and brings a global perspective to his work. His real-world experience, guidance and expertise inform and supports leaders and leadership teams in navigating through existing and future opportunities and challenges.Paul is involved in several game-changing quests to better understand what leaders and organizations of tomorrow will need to set themselves apart and prepare for the future of leadership. Currently, he is exploring the topic of why leaders are fired. This will be the focus of his upcoming book, speaker series and leadership development and leadership coaching program, which will be underpinned by a counterintuitive theory that future leaders and organizations will set themselves apart by the current attributes that they are fired for in today’s organizations. Through this, Paul argues that the leadership development model is broken and we need to reframe the narrative around how future leaders will need to be developed as part of being equipped to handle ongoing disruption.Simply put, Paul’s mission over the last 25 years has been to rid the world of toxic leaders, one leader at a time.An avid traveller, Paul has explored over 30 countries, is a veteran snowboarder of Canada’s best powder and divides his time between western and central Canada. Paul passionately provides mentorship to the next generation of young entrepreneurs and future leaders through a collaboration with non-profit organizations or simply over a cup of Earl Grey.
