How discipline, focus, and commitment as D1 athlete set the stage to become the executive editor covering a trillion dollar industry…
In this week's episode of "Bring More Joy to the Table," I sit down with my good friend, Alicia Kelso, Executive Editor of Nation's Restaurant News. We dive into Alicia's journey from lifeguard to leading journalist and the invaluable lessons she’s learned along the way, including discipline, coach-ability, and the power of teamwork.
She shares her insights on the current landscape of women in food service, the challenges of balancing tough breaking news with positive stories, and the importance of lifting up emerging brands. Plus, we discuss the need for more female representation in the industry, and how initiatives like NRN’s Women in Food Service are making a huge difference.
