Welcome to another episode of the Paid to Play Podcast! Thanks to everyone who joined us for the first episode last month.

Many of you have a big career goal, and you might feel as though achieving that goal is the only yardstick for success. But just because you haven’t achieved your dream yet doesn’t mean that you can’t live your passion in other ways.

My guest for this episode, Mexican-born chef Vanessa Musi, is well on her way to opening Edit Bakery, Texas’s first gluten-free, sugar-free bakery. In the meantime, she supports her dream by teaching others the art of bakery and acting as a brand ambassador.

Highlights in this episode:

• How Vanessa gave up psychology to answer her calling in bakery.
• How pursuit of her craft has taken Vanessa around the world, from five-star restaurants to bed and breakfasts.
• How Vanessa took a health problem—hypoglycemia—and turned it into a strength by masteing the art of making pastry without sugar or gluten.
