Title: '"It's too spicy", and other such bulls**t; disrupting inequalities in hospitality and food publishing'

Synopsis: Coming from a healthcare background where care and collaboration are at the centre of its ethos, the unregulated world of hospitality was a gigantic culture shock. Racism, sexism, and systemic issues that contribute to poor mental health are rife, and sadly, expected.
