Meet Sandra Hodet

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Sandra Hodet a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Sandra, appreciate you sitting with us today to share your wisdom with our readers. So, let’s start with resilience – where do you get your resilience from?

My husband and I’s resilience comes from our moving story :-). I think we like challenges and we really like meeting new cultures. This has allowed us to bounce back in the face of many obstacles. After leaving France for Quebec, we experienced many challenges but our family spirit and our work were rewarded. Now, we are settled here in Florida and are trying a new adventure once again. Florida didn’t spare us with the biggest hurricane in decades :-)… I believe that we are made to experience obstacles to learn to be stronger and to appreciate even more what we have.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

In fact, buying this bakery is a love story. The one for my husband who dreamed of having his own bakery. He has always followed me in my various life projects, carrer etc. so it was normal that I support him in turn. In addition it is so rewarding to meet new people every day who are interested in our story. We share so much! As a saleswoman at the bakery, I am lucky to meet extraordinary people!

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

One quality that is important when you are an entrepreneur with your own company is not being afraid to work a lot. It is important to invest a lot.
More specifically, for my husband, a chef-baker, this is the ability to sleep little and get up early… very early hahaha.
And as a customer service personn I would say that you have to listen and understand the needs of your customers.

Okay, so before we go we always love to ask if you are looking for folks to partner or collaborate with?

My husband loves to bake breads and viennoiseries. He would like to find restaurants and/or hotels in the greater Tampa area that would like to order breads and viennoiseries for him.
