Gratitude is the first word that comes to my mind when I think of the opportunity that was presented to me from Carl of the Walk-In Podcast. Carl captured the true essence of my mission; to serve up faith, family and Italian food in my community of Tampa. I felt comfortable to share some very raw emotions when it comes to my mental health, the ups and downs of entrepreneurship and the ability to pivot and never lose sight of your dreams.
