Season 2, Episode 1: Con Alma

Cheers to episode 4 of Hungry Grl Big Podcast! Jess sits down with Rachel Walton, Head Pastry Chef at DiAnoia's in the Strip District, to discuss all things rainbow cookies and baking inspiration. On top of all things delicious, we also discuss some more serious and open dialogue, like what to do when you find yourself in a compromising position at work, how to advocate for yourself in the process, and how to overcome these conflicts and not take them with you to your next move. Rachel also tells us how she grew to manage the pastry team and what her latest creations are (I'm telling you already, you'll want to head to DiAnoia's ASAP after listening!)

It's the third episode of Hungry Grl Big Podcast (can you believe it?!) and I'm sitting down with no one other than Lauren Townsend, co-founder of Millie's and quite honestly one of THE sweetest people you will ever meet.... live from Millie's new headquarters! We're talking about the birth of Millie's, how the ice cream empire grew to what it is today, and how Lauren balanced starting a company, working a full-time 9-5 job while doing so, and how her and Chad (her husband) started a family in the midst of it all.    This is a story not-to-miss, and if you get hungry while listening, be sure to follow their drool-worthy IG st @milliespgh!
