From Finance to Korean Food Fame: Celebrity Chef Judy Joo on Reinventing Yourself
What happens when you stop playing it safe - and start betting on yourself? Celebrity Chef Judy Joo is living her dream: she left behind a safe, well-paying finance career to follow her passion for food. Today, she’s a Korean-American chef and TV personality, a best-selling cookbook author, and the first-ever female Iron Chef UK. She’s also the founder and CEO of Seoul Bird, a global restaurant brand famous for its Korean fried chicken – with locations from Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium to Madison Square Garden. She has become an international ambassador for Korean cuisine, and her latest cookbook, "K-Quick: Korean Food in 30 Minutes or Less," makes it even easier. Judy’s story might surprise you: she studied engineering at Columbia, and started her career on Wall Street. Her story strikes a personal chord for me, because she left behind a prestigious career path to embrace the unknown - which I'm attempting myself!  In this episode of Alchemy Social, Judy shares: Why she made the pivot from finance to food What helped her find the courage to go against convention How she’s successfully managed a multifaceted career – from cooking to writing cookbooks to live television and social media What is so unique – and addictive - about Korean fried chicken (hint: it's that crunch); and How Korean culture obsession has gone global. Whether you’re thinking about a career pivot, building a personal brand, or just love Korean food and culture, this conversation is for you.
