Pam Paydos is a Connecticut entrepreneur who in the span of 5 years opened not one, but two beloved and successful restaurants in an upscale & competitive community. I met Pam in 2010 when I moved to Connecticut to reinvent my magic business from scratch. She was the first, and for months the only, local restaurant owner who took a chance on hiring a weekly magician. In this episode Pam opens up about why she was able to create such thriving restaurants where most fail, how the business impacted her personal life, and of course, her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.
