The Accidental Creative show

Summary: <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> As a 24-year-old line cook, Ellen Marie Bennett couldn’t stand the kitchen staff’s poorly designed, cheaply made aprons. So when her head chef announced he was ordering a new batch, she blurted out, “Chef, I have an apron company”—even though she had no company, no business plan—just a glimmer of a design idea and a business license. Through hustle and a willingness to leap into the unknown, she built that first order into the company Hedley &amp; Bennett is today, making aprons and kitchen gear worn by many of the world’s best chefs and home cooks everywhere.<br> <br> <br> <br> In this interview, we discuss Ellen's new book Dream First, Details Later and principles that anyone with an idea can apply to bring it into the world for others to enjoy.<br> <br> <br> <br> Become a support of the podcast and get ad-free episodes and access to the full archives.
