Yeah! I'm the only one excited to be here? OK, I just want to apologize for the weather in Chicago. It sucks. I am sorry. [LAUGHTER] I am sorry. It will get better tomorrow. How is everyone doing? Yeah, I feel like I'm doing the Oprah-like thing. Well, first of all, we're going to go from high energy to probably some kind of cooler energy. And we'll go back and forth because this is a serious topic. So for you guys who are blogging a year or less, raise your hands, a year or less. Oh, so everybody is like OGs up in here? [LAUGHTER] Right? OK, so what about four to five years? OK, yeah, y'all need this. You burn out. Anything above that? Oh, my gosh, and you're still doing it. OK, clap for yourselves for real, right? Because this is hard. Staying fired up about your brand is very, very difficult to do. You've got the ebbs and flows. I mean, I'm sure most of you are not waking up every single day like, oh, my gosh, I can not wait to do SEO today. No? No, right? This is difficult. And it's like, oh, my gosh, I cannot wait to go out and do 20 more Instagram shoots today. It gets difficult to stay in the mix. So I have a presentation, and I have all of these thoughts about things you guys can do to externally keep the fire going and internally keep the fire going. But this morning, I had a lot more revelations. It was at like 3:00 in the morning. And I was up with my daughter. And I started writing in what looks like my eighth grade journal. Does anyone still do that? And so I have more stuff to offer too. And the first thing that came to mind for me is that staying fired up about your brand, that's inner work, right? So when you come to these conferences, you're going to learn so much about strategy, about how you can do all of the things, the things that keep your brand growing. But what about the things that keep you invested? What about the things that keep you excited about what you do every day? Because it's difficult. How many of you guys do this full time? A lot of you-- so the first thing I like to do is I recognize the gratitude. Because how many of you guys love what you do, right? Do you ever talk to some of your friends who go to a 9:00 to 5:00 or whatever, work weekends, not like us? But and their jobs suck. [LAUGHTER] Right? That is real. I'm talking about the people who are at the cubicle right now. And they are going to go get coffee. They're going to talk to somebody at the water cooler-- big fun. They're going to be on the phone later. And this is what they do day in and day out. But you guys are here, right? Think about the fun things you get to do. You get to interact with people online. You get to speak to them from your blog. You have this personal voice. You have something to offer. And you get to do all this stuff like work with brands. You get to be creative,

Host Liren Baker talks with blogger, author, and television personality Jocelyn Delk Adams of Grandbaby Cakes about how she inherited the “baking gene,” her pivot from a career in media and PR, and how she preserves generations of baking passion by sharing desserts online and onscreen!

At an early age Jocelyn Delk Adams was in the kitchen with her grandmother learning the ins and outs of home cooked meals and decadent desserts made from scratch. While Jocelyn was devoted to dancing at the time, those visits to “big mama” Maggie’s house were always magical and the memories became a permanent fixture in Jocelyn’s heart - and are the reason baking eventually became her full-time passion and career. Jocelyn is the founder of Grandbaby Cakes, a brand inspired by big mama, which shares classic recipes in modern and accessible ways. She’s also the author of Grandbaby Cakes, the cookbook, a national television personality and brand ambassador. You’ve likely seen her gracing the screen of the Today Show, Food Network, The Rachael Ray Show, and Good Morning American - to name a few!Today on “Courtney, Beyond the Cake,” Jocelyn shares with us how Grandbaby Cakes began and how she turned it into her full time gig. Beyond that, and probably what I’m most excited for you to hear today, is our conversation around motherhood and the importance of finding magical moments in our every day lives.

In US history books, many of the sacrifices made by African Americans go unreported. You don't hear of a successful black man, you only hear of a downtrodden one. It's even more so for women.  We thought this week that we would shed some light on some of the lesser-known female black historical figures that have contributed to capitalism. Their slave chains were turned into gold chains and we are here for it. Dana tells the story of Madam CJ Walker who went from rags to riches with her hair products. She believed in giving others a hand up instead of a handout. Nydia does the story of Mary Ellen Pleasant. She was an entrepreneur who used her money to fight the good fight. Cindy covers some present-day black female entrepreneurs who are using food blogging as their platform.  For dinner this week, Cindy prepared some Southern baked chicken and honey glazed carrots using a recipe from the Grandbaby Cakes blog. For dessert, she made us a sweet potato cheesecake using a recipe found on the Lenox Bakery blog. The meal was paired with a 2019 Wente Morning Fog Chardonnay. A traditional California Chardonnay with a great balance between tropical fruit and toasty oak on the finish. You can find the links to the stories and food photos on:www.winedineandstorytime.comCheck us out on Social too!!  https://www.facebook.com/winedineandstorytimehttps://www.instagram.com/winedinestorytime/https://twitter.com/WDStoryTimeor call us some time 6093003094 This week we also got to work with some other podcasts we think you should check out!

“Being in the present has totally changed so much of my perspective,” says Jocelyn Delk Adams, founder of the Grandbaby Cakes blog and author of the cookbook Grandbaby Cakes: Modern Recipes, Vintage Charm, Soulful Memories and several e-cookbooks.

Today's show is an interview that I recorded in Charleston, South Carolina with the one and only Jocelyn Delk-Adams, the woman behind Granbaby Cakes, a blog turned brand inspired by Jocelyn's grandmother and her classic Southern recipes. She's been featured on many television programs including the Today Show and has been in publications like O! Magazine, Bon Appetit, The New York Times and Southern Living Magazine. During our conversation we talk about the real, nitty gritty of what it's like to run a blog that's a business in 2018 and the pressures of maintaining social media accounts, branded content and being a wife and mom while still making time for the original thing that you loved in the first place, which in her case is baking. We also talk about being ‘the visible one' in an industry that's not as diverse as it should be. A Hungry Society is powered by Simplecast

“Everyone is so busy. We're constantly getting fast food or ordering out because our schedules are so, so busy. Sitting around the table and enjoying a meal, or being in the kitchen and preparing a meal with other family members, the joy and the love of that experience has gotten drowned out. And I really want to make sure that doesn't happen." That's Jocelyn Delk Adams, the personality behind Grandbaby Cakes. She's appeared on The Today Show, Everyday with Rachael Ray, and the Cooking Channel with her modern takes on her grandmother's traditional recipes. Jocelyn sat down with us to chat about her family history in the kitchen, her road to becoming a mother, and how food can have a place in expanding diversity and understanding.   Jocelyn Delk Adams of Grandbaby Cakes Website | Instagram Her cookbook: Grandbaby Cakes Julia Turshen's new cookbook: Feed the Resistance   Recipes: Creamy vegan pasta marinara | A Couple Cooks Spicy oven fried catfish | Grandbaby cakes   Links: This Lebanese cookbook author's career was inspired by her father's encouraging words when she was a child Why eating the same food increases people's trust and cooperation   Preorder A Couple Cooks cookbook >> Pretty Simple Cooking   A Couple Cooks on Instagram and Twitter
