What do neuroscience, web design, and cake have in common? For Grace "Grey" Pak — everything!

In this episode, Grace shares her powerful and unconventional journey from the world of science and tech to becoming a sought-after cake artist whose creations go beyond delicious dessert and head straight into fine art. 

Grace opens up about the pressures of cultural expectations, the internal reckoning that led to her career shift, and how she discovered a deeper purpose through creating cakes.

We talk about the business side of being an artist, the healing power of creativity, and Grace’s mission to use cake as both an artistic medium and a tool for emotional connection. From running her business to leading art therapy-inspired workshops, Grace is redefining what it means to follow your passion — and what it takes to turn that passion into a profession.
