Just sold out my first pop-up dinner, and it's giving me the push to pursue cooking full-time.

What's the biggest risk you've taken after a moment like that? My cousin did a pop-up in her backyard during lockdown, and now she runs a catering business from her garage. It started with just neighbors, but word got out and she had to turn people away. She said the scariest part was quitting her day job, but that sold-out event was the PUSH she needed. That kind of organic growth must feel so validating when you're jumping into something new.

Sold out my first Austin pop-up last year, that rush totally made me switch careers too.
