In this episode, Chris sits down with Hannes Hennches, a private chef and host of The Private Chef Podcast, to explore Hannes's unique journey in the world of private service. They discuss the resources available for aspiring private chefs, the challenges and rewards of working in private service, and the critical focus on health and well-being for culinary professionals. Hannes reflects on his experiences with different clients, emphasizing the need for creativity and adaptability to succeed in the industry.

A transformative experience for Hannes was a 10-day silent meditation retreat, which profoundly shifted his perspective on time and thought. He shares his approach to meditation as a state of being rather than doing, offering a path to greater clarity and balance. Looking to the future, Hannes expresses his desire to integrate well-being more deeply into his private chef work, supporting others in their pursuit of longevity and equilibrium.

Hannes also discusses his financial insights, particularly in real estate and Bitcoin, and emphasizes the importance of aligning wealth with holistic well-being. In addition to his work as a chef, Hannes hosts two insightful podcasts: The Path to Wellth, available on Apple Podcasts, and The Private Chef Podcast, available on Apple Podcasts. He also offers coaching and resources for chefs transitioning to private service through his website, privatechef.cc.
