Today we introduce Pastry Chef and #1 fan of the pod, Aaron Davis!
Aaron is not only a wildly talented pastry chef, cake artist, and baker, but he's a personal friend of Blayre's and has so many awesome things to share with us today.
In this episode, Aaron and I are talking about:
His personal and professional growth since graduating in the middle of the Pandemic, and how he's honing in on finding what brings him joy in his career
His experience navigating his own mental health journey in an industry that stigmatizes it and how we can prioritize our own mental health
How it doesn't matter where you start in your career, it's the intentional steps that you take from there that will lead you to where you want to go
Ways to seek creative inspiration for your art from unique places
Aaron's experience on Holiday Baking Championship AND Holiday Wars and how they differ
