Kate Reid built her career as an aerodynamicist at Williams Formula 1, before stepping out into the world of pastry making.

In this episode, she opens about obsession, burnout, mental illness, and finding a new purpose, realising that her dream job wasn’t the dream life. She talks about rebuilding her life through baking and creating Lune Crossainterie, applying the same engineering mindset to mastering the croissant.
