I still can’t believe today happened.
When Glenda asked me to be P4E’s chef instructor, I said yes. I had no idea it would turn into this.
Today, 15 women graduated. Women who wouldn’t pick up a knife without asking permission on day one, running full community meals like pros by the end. And somewhere in teaching them, I created something I didn’t even see coming; my first cookbook. Every recipe we cooked together, now in their hands, in Spanish, so every one of them can carry it home.
One of my students handed me a gift; it was a hand-embroidered chef coat and a note that stopped me in my tracks. My heart is FULL.
I built this company not knowing what it would turn into. Today, I got proof! When you believe in yourself, the opportunities show up. Grateful doesn’t even cover it.
My first cookbook!! English version coming soon….
Glenda & I signing the ladies certificates!
It’s blue!!! You know I love me an unique chef coat…
Note Translated: “Chef T. Before anything else, I want to thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. Thank you for being a successful woman and leading us into this new world full of opportunities. Also for teaching us to be valued and independent. Thank you for everything. -Patricia K.
