Top Chef All Star TREVOR BIRD on Self-Awareness and Business Leadership

In this episode of the thinkspace podcast, we sit down with a globally acclaimed chef, Trevor Bird. Known to most Vancouverites as the award-winning head chef and owner of the popular Vancouver restaurant, Fable Kitchen. Trevor also boasts an impressive number of titles under his chef’s apron as two-time Top Chef Canada finalist and Top Chef Canada All Stars. His most recent venture is MeatMe, a sustainably-raised meat delivery service servicing the province of British Columbia. 

You’ll learn that Trevor is much more than a successful business owner and world-class chef -- he is a man that has visited the depths of his own ego, worked through the mud, and has taken the time to heal and lead himself to a better future. 

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

• Trevor’s difficult childhood and mental turmoil, and how he learned to create his own joy
• Psychology and technology habits to improve your life
• Leadership coaching and why this is important in business
