Synopsis

In The Mac & Cheese Millionaire: Building a Better Business by Thinking Outside the Box, bestselling author, entrepreneur, and culinary innovator Erin Wade shares her inspiring and often hilarious journey of leaving her corporate lawyer job to open a hit mac and cheese restaurant, taking you through the challenges and victories that paved her path to success. By sharing the lessons that helped her sell millions of dollars in cheesy carbs, she delivers the tools you need to create change and surpass all your expectations.

This book isn't just a personal narrative; it's a masterclass in redefining what it means to love your work. Because while her journey started out of a love of mac and cheese, Wade found that what she ultimately fell in love with—was business. What follows is the story of starting a small business, all of the ensuing trials and tribulations, and ultimately building a unique, feminist work culture that helped transform the restaurant industry.

You'll also find funny and inspiring personal anecdotes that illustrate the power of tapping into your own singular brand of leadership; strategies for creating a one-of-a-kind work culture based on greater meaning, purpose, and connection; and tools to embrace a feminine leadership style that offer an enduring competitive advantage to entrepreneurs.

The book also contextualized my own eatin......more
