In this episode of Your Hero’s Journey, we sit down with Dan Sabia—formerly trained under Michelin-star chef Jean George. From burning out in white tablecloth NYC restaurants to creating fire-cooked feasts that ignite human connection, Dan takes us on a raw and refreshing ride through his entrepreneurial evolution to making Wood Fire Food Co into a million dollar business.
He shares:
👉What it’s really like working under Jean-Georges
👉Why he walked away from fine dining to build community around open flame
👉How one $5K farm dinner launched a million-dollar business
👉Why profit isn’t just about money—and why sliders aren’t welcome
👉The mindset that’s allowed him to scale without sacrificing soul
Whether you’re in the culinary world, building a business, or searching for your purpose, Dan’s story is a masterclass in betting on your gut, building with intention, and finding joy in simplicity.
