Story
Hi all
This is a bit of a long shot but here goes.So I left my job a few months ago.The strain of the pressure the hours the sickness it was making me.The pressure of service and other team members made me develop at eating disorder and came to a point in my life I never thought I would be at.I was born to be a chef but not let the industry ruin my life and passion.
So now I’m better the thought of making me want to go into another kitchen makes me feel physically and mentally ill but I was born to do this.
I’m looking to set up my own business where I go to peoples homes.They give me a budget and a small fee and I cook and teach them a 3 course meal.Ive had interest but here it goes.I need funding.Im embrassed and ashamed I’m doing this but there’s only so much help you can do on your own.Every penny would help and would keep you updated.
As well as this I want to teach head chefs and managers how to support chefs with eating disorders.I hid mine for ages.Taste this chef I would hear.I would taste it and make myself sick.It wasnt right.I believe its something that will never leave you but I want to teach these chefs and managers how to spot the signs.I have put a low amount to raise this is for a licence,equipment and cards etc.Extra money I raise I would like to donate to my local food bank.
Thankyou for listening.I really want to do this
