Friends! If you've been missing all the excitement, inspiration, and feels since the closing ceremonies- this week's episode is mon petite tribute to the Olympic spirit- just for you! Think French Basketball players, croissants, and the determination required to pursue a new home, life, and business. We cover it all! And I can't wait for you to meet my special guest. Its my honor to introduce you to my friend , Chef Laurent Correa. While he does not work in show biz per se, he is very much a part of the entertainment community in the heart of Burbank and Toluca Lake- and has been a big inspiration for me in expanding what I believe to be possible for my own life. I know you are going to love him and his powerful insights! Chef Lou shares his journey from being a professional basketball player in France to becoming a baker in Los Angeles and opening his shop, Lou The French on the Block. Since opening  in 2016, the bakery has become a staple of the community and place where locals line up to connect and share his French heritage ( and the best pastries this side of the Seine).  Be sure to tune in to hear his incredible story and discover how being a professional athlete led to his success in business and bringing a new dream to life!
