The As Told By Podcast

Sweet Success: As Told By Greg Williams of Gregory's Gourmet Desserts (S6/E8)

Episode Summary

Kahja interviews Greg Williams

Episode Notes

If the road to success is paved with sweetness, Greg Williams has his own four lane highway! With his popular (and literally) underground Oakland bakery, Gregory's Gourmet Desserts, his assortment of classic and creative treats has long since made him one of the Town's favorite indulgences, and a recent brush with social media virality has given him his biggest platform yet!

In this week's bonus episode, Kahja talks with Greg about his Brooklyn roots, odd-jobbing your way into what's meant for you, the serendipity of his current location, a pop-up visit and the Rob Martinez effect, how the right relationship can support an entrepreneurial lifestyle, the intersection of success and readiness, honoring Black food history, and trusting that you're exactly where you're meant to be.

Recorded in Oakland, CA.
