About the Podcast

Chef Life Radio
For chefs and hospitality leaders who want to lead without losing themselves
You love the work. You’re starting to hate what it’s doing to you. Chef Life Radio is for sous chefs, kitchen managers, executive chefs and anyone else running a crew in the hospitality industry who got promoted for their cooking and never got taught how to lead people. Chef Adam Lamb hosts solo episodes and true stories from kitchens about the parts of the job nobody trains you for: holding your crew accountable without turning into the chef you swore you’d never be, getting stuck between ownership and your staff, coming home with something left after a 70-hour week, and working out what career fulfillment looks like once the dream version of the job has worn off. No hustle talk and no corporate leadership speak. Put it on while you break down the line or drive home, and if you’re after work-life balance that holds up through a Saturday double, start here. Once a month Adam also runs the Culinary Leadership Lab, a free live working session for chefs who want to lead without losing themselves. Register at https://link.cheflifecoaching.com/leadershiplab
