Experience is valuable. So is knowing you still have more to learn.

@JackMcGarry1, @Sabato3 Sagaria, and @TracyMalechek-Ezekiel share a similar lesson for anyone building a long-term career: keep learning, stay open to change and don’t get too comfortable doing things the way they’ve always been done.

Growth doesn’t stop when you become a leader.

🍔 Before the restaurants, accolades and leadership roles? Fast food.

@GavinKaysen started at @Subway. @GregBaxtrom worked at @Wendys at fifteen. Caroline Glover (@caroglover8) got her start at @Chilis before becoming obsessed with restaurants.

Turns out, a first job that feels like “just a job” can be the beginning of something much bigger.

HEIRLOOM IS LOOKING FOR A COOK ~ after 2.5 years with us one of the team is leaving to pursue their own dreams ~ we wish CK nothing but the best & are beyond grateful for his time & commitment to our team ~ this leaves a rare opportunity for someone to join us in the kitchen ~

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR ~ cooking experience in a fine dining environment is a plus ~ attitude, willingness to take direction, cleanliness, personality, & strong work ethic are a must ~ this is not the average cook job, our team are also at any time; the servers, food runners, napkin folders, glass polishers, the greeters, & interact with guests all night long ~ baking experience can be a plus ~ looking for someone who wants to learn food AND hospitality at the highest levels ~

WHO WE ARE ~ a very small, family owned business with a @beardfoundation nominated chef, owners who are present, a tiny but mighty team of dedicated professionals who genuinely care about the restaurant, their co-workers, & the craft ~ we are always changing the menu, rarely work from “recipes”, & like to think we have the best playlist this side of the Mississippi ~ having fun is good, seriousness is also good, excellence is pursued, guest experience is ALWAYS most important ~ ego is not welcome in our house ~

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO ~ if you think this might be a job for you, first understand we don’t hire often & are looking for a long term member to join the team ~ please send a cover letter & resume to Chef Jason at Heirloom1907@gmail.com ~ both are required to be considered ~ tell us about yourself & why you’d like to join us along with references & work history ~ if you’ve read this far maybe it’s you ~ we look forward to meeting you ~

🍽️ 24 years old. Stay with your mentor or take the job they left behind?

Chef Melissa Perello (@M_Perello of @SF_Frances, @SF_Octavia and @Lorella_SF) reflects on the career crossroads that changed everything.

When her mentor, Chef Ron Siegel (@RSChef), left Charles Nob Hill for a new opportunity, Melissa had a choice: follow him or step into his role as executive chef.

She chose the role.

Looking back, Melissa credits that leap with putting her on the fast track toward everything she’d go on to build.

🔥 12 years of going nonstop. Then Chef Melissa Perello hit a wall.

Burnout didn’t just make her rethink how she was working. It made her rethink how she wanted to cook.

After building her career in fine dining, @M_Perello realized she was running on empty, and it wasn’t just work fatigue. She found herself craving food that was simpler, more rustic and less formal.

That shift became a turning point, helping shape an entirely new chapter of her career and cooking style.

What does the future of tech look like when women are the ones building it?

Meet the founders behind Tech, AI & the Future: Built By Us, For Us at the Womansplain Summit, a conversation about building technology that works for us, not around us.

✨ Alice Cheng, Founder & CEO of Culinary Agents, is transforming how hospitality professionals find opportunities, build careers, and connect with employers through technology.

✨ Anjana Vasan, Founder & CEO of Tenet, is building an AI marketing agent that gives founders and lean teams the strategy and execution power to grow without a full-scale marketing function.

✨ Tessa Adams, Founder & CEO of Blob AI, is rethinking our relationship with AI through a privacy-first approach designed to protect human agency, individuality, and trust.

✨ Corina Marshall, Founder & CEO of Another, is bringing automation and data-driven solutions to the way brands and retailers manage off-price and secondary inventory.

Together, they’ll unpack what it means to build with AI, scale technology with intention, and make sure women have a voice in shaping what comes next.

📍 Womansplain Summit
🗓 October 16
⏰ 3:25 PM
🎙 Tech, AI & the Future: Built By Us, For Us

Because the future of technology isn’t just something we adapt to. It’s something we get to build.

You don’t always know when you’re taking the first step toward your future career.

Home economics, a coffee shop job or simply trying something new can end up changing the direction of your life.

For Tavel Bristol-Joseph (@tavel19), @JordanSalcito and @BobbyStuckeyMS, the dots only connected later.

🔒 Does closing a restaurant mean failure? Not even close.

When @TimeAndTideNYC closed, @Chef.DannyGarcia (Chef and Owner of @OnlyGoodsNYC), heard that word a lot. But he walked away with something more valuable: lessons about what worked, what didn’t, and how he wants to build differently next time.

As Danny points out, some of the best chefs in the business have closed restaurants. For him, it’s not a red flag. It’s part of building, learning, and figuring out what comes next.
