Raveena - Just Cakes Bakeshop
This week’s episode features Raveena @ravthechef from Just Cakes Bakeshop.
Raveena is known for many of her successes: as a baker, judge and pastry chef. She is recognized for many of her accomplishments as an entrepreneur and her advocacy for South Asian women in business.
We start this episode by embarking on her journey in the industry - her humble beginnings as a baker; from being a contestant to a judge on the Food Network and how the power of scaling help her business go nationwide.
We discuss her strong business acumen, the “workaholic” mentality, overnight successes and her thoughts on haters, copycats + unsolicited opinions from the South Asian community.
We also dive into Raveena’s life outside of JCB. Her experiences as a newlywed, moving to a new city, living with in-laws and the struggle/expectation of being the perfect daughter and daughter-in-law.
She also touches on the adjustments, compromises and the commitment it takes for a successful marriage.
