We had the good fortune of connecting with Lynn Ramsey and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Lynn, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
In my opinion, deciding to become an entrepreneur is one of the biggest risk a person can decide to take in life. You’re literally betting on yourself. Believing in a vision no one can see but you! Stepping out on faith to invest in myself & create my brand has been one the best things I have done. The opportunities that I’ve been afforded, the amazing people I’ve met along the journey, none of it would have been possible if I would have never took the risk to just start! I will always bet on myself & I encourage anyone with a dream to do the same!
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I’m Chef Lynn & I’m based in Atlanta, GA. I specialize in private dining, full catering service, as well as weekly meal prep. My services can be used locally or with any travel needs. I take pride in offering each of my clients an amazing experience. I’m here to expand & satisfy your palate by taking you on an immaculate food journey with only the best & freshest ingredients. How I got to where I am today? God, always believing in myself, a lot of hard work, & my customers! Social media has also played a major part. My work has went viral a few times & I was even posted on The Shaderoom for my 24K Gold & Rose Gold wings. The road has definitely not been easy but always, always worth it. No matter what trials may come, I always try to see things in a positive situation. That sets me apart. I don’t mind being uncomfortable to grow. Pressure creates diamonds!
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Toast on Lenox for brunch. Hands down the best brunch spot in Atlanta!
The High Museum of Art & The Botanical Garden for sure!
Spice House in Buckhead has some of the best Caribbean food I’ve ever had!
Southern Fire Kitchen for the best Soul food vibes!
Hookah, good music, & food? Yeaa that would be Views Bar & Grill!
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
First & foremost shoutout to the Big Guy himself! Absolutely none of this would be possible without God. I’m forever grateful!
My tribe.. I love them so much. They know exactly who they are lol. They’re there for every out of the box idea I may have, no matter how crazy it may sound at times lol. I appreciate their support more than I can ever say. Love you guys but y’all know that!
Last but never least… My supporters. I have some of the greatest people praying for me & helping me succeed. Whether is by purchasing, recommendations, or sharing my work, I just appreciate all the support & love I get from people.
