Wear Many Hats Episode 118 — Ali Francis

Hey everyone it’s Rashad and this is Wear Many Hats presented by Dahsar where we talk about your main gig then we talk about your side hustle.

Ali Francis is a writer who I discovered from our friends, Playlab when they provided the Creative Direction on the launch video for Ali’s previous company, Baking Supply Co.

Ali is a writer who has written for BBC, Self, Domino, Thrillist and many more.

Ali is now an Editor for Bon Appétit.

Ali loves the great outdoors, surfing, cooking, creative writing including flash fiction and short stories and obviously food.

Ali mentioned to me that she’s anti side hustle so we’re going to talk about how she lives a creative lifestyle.

They hate to see a girlboss winning. What’s for dinner? What makes you happy?

Please welcome Ali Francis to Wear Many Hats.

Before we begin do you have any dietary restrictions? I ask this question to all my food based guests, to get all my waiter friends asking this question

Love your Instagram. I’m usually a black and white guy but love color film photos but your feed is very colorful its giving skittles taste rainbow but I’m sure you don’t eat candy.

When did you pick up surfing?

You’re into creative writing, are you planning on writing a book?

Baking Supply Co.

Touchy subject but Baking Supply Co. was definitely coming up during a time where Marijuana was hot. Becoming legal but I can totally understand that the burnout was real.

How is your marijuana consumption?

Bon Appetit

It’s good to hear you’re at Bon Appetit after everything that went down. You can write basically anywhere now.

Hats off

Hats off to you and everything that you do, for some Dahsar Wear Many Hats solutions, would you ever create a company again but it wasn’t food based?

Ending

If you were to get a chest tattoo quote what would it be?

Plug your socials where can people find you?

Till next time this is Wear Many Hats presented by Dahsar and I’m Rashad Peace!
