S04E10: TAHINI ON (LITERALLY) EVERYTHING - extravagant recipes, finding your niche while building a business, and secrets from a celebrity chef with Brooke Baevsky, aka Chef Bae
Today I’m sitting down with Brooke Baevsky, aka Chef Bae, an LA-based celebrity private chef to athletes, actors, supermodels, and even royals! She has amassed a massive following of “Food Baes'' on TikTok where she breaks the traditional allergy-friendly food stigma with delicious, health-forward & viral recipes. She also founded a non-profit cooking program for inner-city children & families in both Los Angeles and New York City, teaching people how to create a healthy, balanced diet on a limited budget. Chef Bae’s technical background in Holistic Nutrition and Food Science combined with her hilarious, quick-witted personality make this convo and her approach to food so much fun. Links from the ep: use code organicolivia for 15% off functional chocolate mid-day squares Here’s the juice: How growing up in a family with tons of food allergies pushed her to get creative in the kitchen at a young age How living in an area with high food insecurity galvanized her to start hosting and teaching community cooking classes for kids The modern-day concept of rebranding anything to make it look like a health food Why she is the antithesis of the “perfect” Instagram chef – making parody content, telling wild stories, and being her authentic self The craziest meal prep that she ever did, like a Caesar salad served at Coachella covered in edible glitter The top bizarre foods and supplements that truly have worked for her professional athlete clients’ performance How to zhuzh up your food and drink with herbs, specifically digestive bitters What a day in the life really looks like for a celebrity private chef (and what she cooks for dogs!) How to decide what to charge people for your services, especially in the beginning when you’re honing your skill and may be struggling with your self-worth The importance of having mentors in your professional space and asking for help How to find your niche and build your brand in the content creation space How we’re transitioning out of the era of perfectly photographed and curated food Connect with Chef Bae: Follow HERE TikTok HERE Youtube HERE Connect with Olivia: Follow HERE Shop herbal formulas HERE
