Jeni Britton Bauer is a pioneer of the artisan ice cream movement and the founder of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams. She is also a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author and a 2012 James Beard awardee.While this conversation is all sorts of joy and whimsy (like how Jeni initially took on a job as an alien make-up artist), she shared a lot of pieces to her journey that I couldn’t have predicted. Is a career in ‘making people happy’ everything it seems to be? Hopefully, after this episode, you will, as Jeni says, ‘think, do and reflect.’--If you’ve got a little one or are in need of stylish smaller-sized frames yourself, check out Jonas Paul Eyewear!
