Plates Podcast

In this episode, we take our conversation about stress to the restaurant industry through an interview with Toronto restaurateur, Jacob Wharton-Shukster. From his experience in many hospitality positions throughout the years culminating in building, owning, and running his own restaurant, Jacob draws a vivid picture of the disruptive lifestyle demanded by the industry. Together, Nico, Brandon, and Jacob explore where the stress in restaurants comes from, how that lifestyle affects diet and exercise, and how people like Jacob have begun focusing more proactively on mental and physical health to manage and thrive in that environment.
