Joining Jill and Doron on the 19th episode of the podcast, the first of our second season, to tell us his story, is Rabbi David Rosen (1958-67), the youngest son of Carmel College's founders Rabbi Dr. Kopul and Bella Rosen, and brother of Rabbis Jeremy Rosen and the late Micky Rosen.   David, known to his old school friends as Buster, is currently Special Advisor to the Abrahamic Family House in Abu Dhabi.  He is the former Chief Rabbi of Ireland, and previously Senior Rabbi of the largest Jewish congregation in South Africa during the apartheid era.  For his interfaith work, he has received a papal knighthood and was named a Commander of the British Empire by the late Queen Elizabeth II.  David lives in Jerusalem and is married to Sharon, with whom he has three children and seven grandchildren, ranging in age from 2 to 23.     Hear David talk about sibling rivalries, playing cricket with the Chief Rabbi, hearing Danny Kaye sing Hebrew in Wallingford on Faye Day, and his IDF service.   Thank you, Rabbi David Rosen, for turning us again to Carmel days!   Dedication: at David's request, this episode is dedicated to the memory of his late mother Bella Rosen, who made often unrecognized yet invaluable contributions to Carmel College as its co-founder.  In the school's early years, she shouldered responsibilities as Catering Manager and Household Supervisor.   During one of the institution's dire financial periods she selflessly pawned her engagement ring to ensure breakfast for the school's boys, an act that resonates with profound dedication.  She later joined the Board of Governors.  Sadly, Bella Rosen passed away in Jerusalem in 1999. Personal mentions in this episode: Rabbi Dr. Kopul Rosen (Founder and Principal) Bella Rosen (Co-founder) Rabbi Jeremy Rosen (Headmaster) Ron Evans (Mathematics) Mary Evans (Mathematics) Rabbi Sidney Leperer (Jewish Studies & Ancient History) Miriam Leperer Moshe Dover (Preparatory School Head & Jewish Studies) Zahava Dover Timothy Healey (History & Cricket) Joshua Gabbay (French) Mrs. H. Whitfield (French) John Bunney (Physics) Jacob “Jacky” Epstein (Chemistry) Alexander “Toby” Tobias (Jewish Studies & History) Abraham Carmel (English & Classics) Hugh “Baldy” Crossthwaite (Latin) Micky Rosen Angela Fay Rosen Rachel Feuerstein Joe Feuerstein Matthew Engel Daniel Dover Stuart Cohen Michael Sternberg David Duke Mordell Klein Victor Weingarten Shimon Weingarten Avrom Sherr Jonathan Rosshandler Ami Federmann   Feel free to leave a comment letting us know what you liked about this episode, and rate us on your favorite podcast platform

How do you make Michelin Star-level food, for hundreds of people, in a kitchen you just built in someone's garden, and with no access to cooking gas? That's just a typical scenario facing chefs in the world of high end mass catering. In this episode, we hear from John Downey, the Catering Manager at the Web Summit tech conference, on the pressures of feeding high profile figures, and VIPs who've spent $26,000 on a ticket.

They tell us about the stresses and often extraordinary challenges of providing high end food, at scale, at some of the USA's most fancy weddings and galas.

Timing is everything. We all have a plan right? The way we think things are going to go. Whether it's personal or professional, we all have a journey we are on and a path we have planned to take. But life is unpredictable and many times our path takes turns that we do not expect. How we respond to the unexpected is what determines our success in reaching our goals.  Today I am so excited to share guest, Holly Carpenter, Owner and “Sales Queen” of Carpenter Hospitality Consulting. We're talking all about Holly's journey both within her business and personally and how she prioritizes her time to create the life she wants.  Main Topics: *Why building relationships in & outside of your industry is so important *What CEO day is and why to do it every week *What a consultant really does Key Takeaways: *Create Connections *Remember a Consultant is also your cheerleader *Drink Wine (Holly's Favorite!)

Who's job is it to create your timeline? Be the point of contact for your vendors? Cut your cake or work with your guests on their food allergies? Do these jobs fall to your catering manager or wedding planner? In this episode, we're chatting with Amanda Douglas, the Director of Catering and Conference Services at the Four Seasons Ko Olina on Oahu, about catering managers vs wedding planners, and the benefits of having a wedding at a hotel vs an offsite event. If you're considering a wedding at a hotel (or even if you're not yet thinking about it), this episode is a MUST. Support us: patreon.com/unveilingparadiseCatering Manager vs Wedding Planner - Who's job is it?Roles of your Catering Manager - manages your food and beverage needs, should be informed of any allergies, schedules your venue walk through, creates a floor plan, assists with cake cutting, room blocks and champagne pours.Roles of your Wedding Planner - creates wedding day timeline, point of contact on the wedding day, assists with budget planning, runs the rehearsal, sets up your day-of items like favors, welcome sign, place cards, and assists with your personal needs like bustling your dress or tying your tie.NOTE: Amanda talks about a DMC (destination management company) - they assist with tours and activities during your stay.What's the main difference between catering managers and wedding planners? Wedding planners will take it all on - all vendors and services from start to finish. Their job is to take the burden off the couple and to manage all aspects of the wedding. Hotels and catering managers focus on delivering on their food and beverage, service, and venue space.Hotel vs Off-Site Wedding - The benefits of having your wedding at a hotel.Hotel weddings are a lot more inclusive and convenient for your wedding planning - little things you wouldn't normally think about are included, like extra forks, napkins, glassware, tables, chairs, linens, etc. The collective experience for your guests at a hotel is easier. Room blocks at a hotel allow guests to all stay together, and also you and your guests to drink responsibly and get back to their rooms safely. Transportation isn't needed for your guests.Overall hotel amenities include air conditioned reception sites during summer, air conditioned bathrooms, a staging area for the couple, and indoor backup spaces if needed. These perks are not often available at off-site venues!There are less restrictions on sound and music at indoor venues so dancing late into the night is totally doable.Amanda's pro tip - you can plan as much as possible beforehand, but on the wedding day, try to enjoy yourself and let it go! Links and Musings from this episode:Instagram:  @fsoahu @fsoahueventsWebsite: fourseasons.com/oahu Find Us on Instagram:Unveiling Paradise @unveilingparadiseJoe @josephesserTessa @fredandkateeventsEmail us with your burning questions about destination weddings, Chicago deep dish pizza, or anything ePassive AggressionA Midwestern look at hot button, taboo and dated topics with Kyle and Jess WassingListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show

Megan Lowdon used to be a people pleaser.  But thanks to the Covid- break she wouldn't have taken otherwise from her role as an Events and Catering Manager, Megan was able to appreciate a slower pace in life.  Upon returning to her position she discovered that the long hours and fast pace weren't conducive to her mental, emotional, and physical wellness.     During her break from the hospitality industry Megan did try to find other employment.  In the end, she started helping her entrepreneur husband with his photography business.  She began to carve a role out for herself as his assistant, finding that many of the skills she had been honig for years were transferable.   After her brief return to the hospitality industry and recognizing it was no longer a fit for her, Megan returned to join her husband in entrepreneurship as the Director of Operations, a role she always wanted but never thought it would look exactly like this.   Learn more about Megan, the challenges she faced and overcame, and how she moved away from people pleasing to create her dream job.   Website; robertlowdon.com Guest Bio: Megan is a Partner and Director of Operations at Robert Lowdon Photography. Prior to the pandemic Megan built a career in large-scale events within the hospitality industry and found herself in a confusing, messy, and world-changing situation when she was temporarily laid off. Through self-discovery, time, and therapy Megan has been able to make decisions that challenge everything she thought she knew and had planned for. Now she helps her husband run their family business and lives a flexible, fulfilling, and creative life that she never knew she could have.  ___________________ Subscribe to this podcast and download your favorite episodes to listen to later: Apple Spotify  RSS Feed  ___________________   ⚕️ Are you a woman healthcare professional who is struggling to juggle everything in your personal and professional life?

Episode 36: Interview with Bruce Nelson, author of Restaurant Management: The Myth, the Magic, the Math   https://restauranttopia.com/episode-36-interview-with-bruce-nelson-author-of-restaurant-management-the-myth-the-magic-the-math/   Bruce Nelson’s restaurant career spans over four decades and includes working every conceivable position within a restaurant. Career highlights include Catering Manager for D’Amico + Partners’ Atrium Catering, General Manager at Cossetta’s Market and Eatery, General Manager at Suite Life Catering at Target Center, Chef Instructor for Le Cordon Bleu and CFO of Nova Restaurant Group. Mr. Nelson leadership style incorporates ethics, humor and a fair dose of sports analogies. His business philosophy teaches that all forms of free commerce are predicated on both customer and business benefiting from the exchange of goods and services. Being a successful business operator does not mean creating a scenario where one party can win if the other party loses but to develop an environment where both parties win. Therefore, successful businesses need to look at the goal of profitability as a puzzle to solve, rather than a battlefield to conquer. Mr. Nelson’s passion lies in teaching restaurant operators how to solve the profitability puzzle.   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Restauranttopia/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/restauranttopia Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/restauranttopia/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9aRVuDUYsV370Rfh-QxDag

After graduating from Washington State University with a minor in Hospitality, she returned to the Willamette Valley as a Catering Manager. She enjoyed doing what she loved for many wonderful years planning weddings and making brides dreams come true!

She is well known amongst her peers as the go-to-person for all things hospitality. She has a unique way of making her clients feel incredibly special and valued. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Jena's job really changed from traveling all over the country and being a top sales producer, to really pivoting more towards strategy & marketing as the live events industry came to a scretching halt. It was during this time that she found herself in business with Scout & Cellar as a Independent Wine Consultant. In addition to loving her job, Jena also loves spending time in Portland with her husband and young son, kayaking, gardening, and wine tasting in the Willamette Valley. #AllAboutTheExperiences #LivingWithoutLimits #JenaDyches #SeniorNationalSalesManager #WineConsultant #PivotOnPurpose --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aate/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/aate/support
