Stay Hungry: As Told By Cecilia Phillips (S5/E12)

What does it look like to go confidently in the direction of your dreams? It looks like Cecilia Phillips, Coordinating Producer and Reporter for one of KQED's most popular shows, Check Please, Bay Area! Merging her love and knowledge of the restaurant industry with a background in journalism, Cecilia's talent is evident both behind and in front of the camera, hosting her very own segment Cecilia Tries It, as well as her original food-themed game show Chew On This, and her newest segment, Beyond The Menu.

This week, Kahja talks with Cecilia about food as nurturance, knowing when you're on the wrong career path, the invaluableness of determination and perseverance, why public broadcast media is such a resource, and holding fast to your dreams of the life you want.

Recorded on location in Oakland, CA.
