654: Face Your Issues With Jenny Dorsey: Jenny Dorsey is professional chef, writer and artist. She makes food to express the full range of human emotions, even those not well-suited for Instagram. She believes food has a special way of exposing the banal routine and social norms we find ourselves in. It can be a powerful medium for storytelling and create a place for genuine interaction, if we choose to use it as such. Her mission is to use culinary arts as a platform to evoke introspection, empathy and real emotion. Sometimes her food or the environments she creates make people uncomfortable, and that's the point. She doesn't plan on being complicit with the way things are, she wants to change the world with her art, even if it's just one honest conversation at a time. Jenny shares how facing her issues is what helped her build her confidence to be the person that she is today. Tune into her episode to listen to her story.
