In this episode, Adam sits down with Marcel Robert, a chef and entrepreneur whose story is shaped by cultural diversity, curiosity, and the courage to follow his passion. Growing up in Port Chester with a Dutch-Surinamese father and a multi-ethnic mother, Marcel was immersed in different perspectives from an early age. His father's example as an immigrant who built a business from the ground up instilled in him the value of hard work and accountability. Marcel shares how his academic path shifted from engineering to political science to anthropology, before he found his true calling in the kitchen.

Her approach to life blends pragmatism and emotional intelligence—an intentional walk between structure and surrender. In this episode, Stefanie opens up about learning to sit with the discomfort of uncertainty, how control once gave her a sense of identity, and how her personal growth journey has shifted her relationship with ambition, boundaries, and belief.
