Emma Sheahan (Lumen People) - Illuminating Lumen

How hard is it to run an independent cafe, wine bar or restaurant these days? Dirty Linen is finding out with Illuminating Lumen, a new deep-dive series. Lumen People is a two-year-old cafe and wine bar in North Melbourne, run with an eye on community and valuing every step of the supply chain. Like many small businesses, Lumen is crunched between increased costs and decreased spend. In the first episode of the series, Dani chats with co-owner Emma Sheahan, who describes the projects, principles, pleasures and pitfalls of her lovely indie venue. We’ll return to Lumen over the weeks and months in our Illuminating Lumen series. https://www.instagram.com/lumenpeople/?hl=en SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5 Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
