Description

In this episode of The Disruptive Chef Entrepreneur, host Christian J. Fischer welcomes Chef Dan Capello, leadership coach, author, and former executive chef, for a powerful conversation about burnout, identity, and rediscovering purpose. Dan opens up about his journey from chasing titles and perfection to finding alignment through self-awareness, vulnerability, and empathy. Together, they unpack the truth behind the “grind harder” lie so many chefs and leaders are sold, and explore how redefining success can transform not just your career but your life. This is an inspiring and deeply human conversation about leading without losing yourself, and why real strength begins with authenticity.
