E15 - Don't Tell Charles - The creator of the concrete cake! How she went from winging it to building a mature and successful career in the cake industry yet refusing to sit still.

My Baking Journey

Today, we have an open an honest discussion about choosing your right path and making sure you’re happy doing it.
We’re speaking today with Thao who is the brain behind the brand Don’t Tell Charles from Melbourne Australia. If you’ve ever created a concrete cake, you can thank Thao for that as she was the first one to make it.
Thao has taught thousands through her cake school. But it all started way before that. Going against the grain of family expectations, she started a cafe and went through a lot of changes to get to where she is today. It’s taught her so much about herself and through this journey she has then gone on to teach so many others in all manner of skills not just with baking, but with business ownership, entrepreneurship, and being an inspiring soul to so many.
We personally loved this chat because Thao beautifully opens up about the ups and downs of it all but through this discussion has the positivity and determination to continue to succeed no matter where life takes her.
For those of you who constantly question what you’re doing in life, sit back and take a listen. We think you’ll get a lot out of this one.
