Alexis Walker

Ready for a Pivot, but not sure how all those years doing "X" job will translate to whatever's next? This week's episode of The Hollywood Second Act Club, with special guest, Chef Laurent Correa is a game -changer ! 

Most of us feel unprepared when it comes to starting something new, but the truth is you already come fully loaded with some pretty bad-ass qualities. All of which are transferable to whatever dream you set your sights on next . Get ready for a conversation that will have you believing in your ability to redefine Your life and career, by using what you've already got !

My friend Lou, shares his journey from being a professional basketball player in France to becoming a baker in Los Angeles. Be sure to tune in to hear his incredible story and learn how he transferred his determination on the basketball court into opening one of LA's most beloved pastry shops, ' Lou the French on the Block'.
