This episode features Chef Meika Johnson, https://www.tiktok.com/@chefmimij? follow her on TikTik were she has 114K followers. From Jeanerette, Louisiana Creole Soul Food is home and food is an art for her. Chef Meika offers a big pot of gumbo on life, as a mother, business owner, and a partner. She doesn't believe sugar should go in grits which I would argue. After spending 6 months in Philadelphia and returning home she dealt with what she described as a break up. A person who obviously thrives off of seeing people satisfied with her food, its very difficult for her to say no and not feel like she let someone down. A breakthrough in her life was realizing how draining it can be doing something you don't enjoy and not being happy. In her life she's had to realize that she needed to say no to some things and how easy it is to consider others even before yourself.
