Immigrant to Restaurant Owner: Chef Esther’s Story

from The Kauzum Effect · host Kauzum

In this episode of The Kauzum Effect, I bring on my mom, Chef Esther, to talk about her journey growing up as an immigrant from the Philippines and building a life in the United States.We dive into her upbringing, how she developed her relentless grind mentality, and what it’s really like running restaurants and managing a business. Along the way we go on a hilarious rant about Yelp reviews before playing a game where I show her random images to get her reactions and uncover her biggest fears.We wrap things up talking about what makes a happy marriage… but right as the episode ends, she flips the interview on me and says she has questions of her own. The sequel is coming next week.LISTEN ON:SPOTIFY:https://open.spotify.com/show/4sNZAzJzICHoNYTNCWeJVQ?si=ff36185ba0f64544Follow Me On Socials For More Content:https://linktr.ee/kauzum#thekauzumeffect #comedy #funny #podcast #restaurant
