    🎙 Success Unscripted – Episode 11

    What if the very thing you were meant to do has been inside you all along—just waiting for you to finally say yes?

    In this episode, I sit down with the incredibly talented and deeply inspiring Don the Cake Don—a self-taught cake artist who walked away from an 18-year corporate career to follow a dream he had been ignoring for years.

    He found his purpose at 42.
    He found peace in powdered sugar.
    And his story will shift something in you.

    ✨ In this episode, we talk about:

    • The cake that changed everything (yes, it looked like King Tut)
    • Leaving a “safe” corporate career with zero bakery experience
    • How he ended up making cakes for Shaquille O’Neal, Jennifer Lopez, the New York Mets, and more
    • Healing childhood wounds through creativity
    • Coexisting with imposter syndrome
    • The power of trusting your gift—and betting on yourself at any age
    • What real success looks like when it’s rooted in authenticity

    🔥 Favorite Quotes:

    “I wasn’t looking for fame. I was looking for freedom.”“That cake didn’t just change my career. It brought me back to life.”“Purpose doesn’t expire. You just have to be brave enough to answer it.”
