Come and Eat with Lowanda Knox

In this episode I speak with Lowanda Knox who has been a Firecircle member for the past nine months. In that time, she has made significant progress on her business planning while juggling a very busy life. Lowanda is a mother of 5, who works a full-time job, and somehow has made the time to turn her passion for food, and her training as a red seal chef, into her lifelong dream of professional cooking. Lowanda was kind enough to share her personal story with us including the twists and turns that led her to where she is today, on the cusp of opening her first food truck Sima7qa7 (Come and Eat). Lowanda talks about the freedom that comes with entrepreneurship and why running a food truck, rather than a bricks and mortar restaurant is the right move for her. Lowanda has also planned her meals with a deeper purpose in mind; to make quick and health 'to go' meals available in her community. If you, have a passion that you’d like to turn into a business to share with the world, we are here to help. Come visit us at www.thefirecircle.ca/memberships to learn more.
