The Chef Metaphor: Building Confidence in your Journey

I often use a metaphor about designers being chefs in growth and guidance across my career. I use this metaphor to help people think differently about how they enter the industry, what the value of passion is and how to identify and present their strengths in a more confident way. This is a framework of thinking for new or experienced designers to think differently about career progression.
