Ep 51: ft. Katrina Markoff, CEO of Vosges Haut-Chocolat on Chocolate as a Medium for Storytelling

Katrina Markoff is the CEO and Founder of Vosges Haut-Chocolat and is the recipient of numerous accolades including being named one of The Top 100 Most Creative People in Business by Fast Company, Fortune Magazine’s 40 Under 40, the Bon Appétit Food Artisan of the Year Award, and “THE innovator in chocolate to lead the US through the next 30 years” by Food & Wine Magazine. She was also honored as Woman Entrepreneur of the Year by OPEN American Express and Entrepreneur Magazine.

In this episode, I share the serendipitous story of how we got connected through the Chicago airport and a love letter, what inspired Katrina to start Vosges, the importance of storytelling, where she finds inspiration, and the self-care practices that allow her to be a CEO, mother, wife, and more.
