A Chef’s journey to success requires stamina, resilience, faith, hard work, creativity, dedication, and passion. This is undoubtedly the case for Chef Ju’von, an award-Winning African American celebrity Chef who is fast becoming a household brand as a personal Chef who specializes in fine dining.
At an early age, Chef Ju’von was diagnosed with end-stage kidney failure and had to undergo dialysis for several years before successfully receiving a kidney transplant. His health scare made him assess the types of food he was eating and transition to cooking a healthier diet that would strengthen his immune system and meet his nutritional needs. Hence Chef Ju’von was born, and his journey to becoming a culinary innovator, entrepreneur, and community influencer began.
Chef passionately shares his journey with host Dr. Sylvia during this episode. He speaks about his challenges while on dialysis, how he managed his emotional health, and how his faith kept him on his path and purpose, leading him to a place of joy and peace.
