107. Carlotta Sabbalini - Italy at Your Door
Carlotta Sabbalini is fantastic - she's a real entrepreneur who's built a food business on the back of a lasagne recipe she learned from her grandmother, Nonna Santina. Along the way she's tried new things, added elements to the business and learned a whole lot of skills that are really vital for a small business operator. I've been wanting to talk to someone whose built a cottage industry based on family recipes and Carlotta just happened to message me and ask if she could join me on the show. That took some chutspa, and it's exactly the kind of thing you need to do as a small operator in the food space. Loved this chat and learned a lot from Carlotta despite the wonderfully rich Italian accent.
