This past October I was LUCKY enough to connect with nine-time award-winning author and chef entrepreneur Amalia Moreno-Damgaard.

I am 'jumping out of my seat' excited to FINALLY share our conversation and Amalia's Easy Cocktail. [Taste Tested & Approved! Recipe Below]

Amalia's passion for Latin cuisine is undeniable as she shares her career journey. Throughout Amalia's life and career, she has fine-tuned her ability to connect people, traditions and cultures to the meals she prepares. Amalia's cooking ignites conversations, bridges knowledge, and is used as a platform to teach people about Latin cultures.

We have all changed in the way we work, travel, connect with people. Amalia gives us a timely reminder to see the good. See the positive. And to keep moving forward.

Amalia, you are on FIRE! 🔥

Thank you for urging us to invite people to our table - - and to keep moving forward.
