We had the good fortune of connecting with Shanna Cox and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Shanna, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The most important factor behind the success of my business is my passion for food. The success of my brand is providing the ultimate gift of cooking for others. I take pride in serving great quality food made with love that is visible for the soul. My grandmother always said a meal that is made with love tastes better than one that is simply thrown together. This is why I ensure that my passion for cooking can be tasted in each dish I make.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I’ve been in the Insurance Industry for over 15 years, a career that I love. But I also loved to cook, so I started doing “what’s for dinner” vlogs and to see an overflow of comments of people wanting to see more of my dishes I knew it was time for me to step out on faith to see the joy on people faces when they taste my food in person. My passion of cooking and the love I put in cooking my food is what I want the world to taste and feel. Where love of food is made visible for the soul.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
When my best friend is in town the first spot we always hit up is City Winery Atlanta. They always have different artist performing, great wine & food selections.

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?
My family deserves the recognition. My family has absolutely been my rock in starting my business. I owe all to my family.
