Kim's book was, in part, an effort to give back to an industry that has played such a large part of her career success. Along with the book, comes the sage wisdom to trust the process of transformation. During Kim's 20+ years in foodservice, she was fortunate to have a number of mentors, and she reminds us of the importance of building a community and network to sustain a successful career.
