We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Chef JT Smith. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Chef JT below.
Chef JT, so glad you were able to set aside some time for us today. We’ve always admired not just your journey and success, but also the seemingly high levels of self-discipline that you seem to have mastered and so maybe we can start by chatting about how you developed it or where it comes from?
My self discipline comes from the type of life I lead. In my adolescent years helped my father with his fight with his terminal illness, Sarcodosis.
Through better life and food choices.
The life that I have had to leave behind when I was enduring endometriosis with zero health care, escaping a cult, loss of freedom, loss of work life balance or self care, and the Life I strive to live through new days that have been given to me. After overcoming major hits in life and several losses looking back on things with birthdays I only see gains and winnings.
My discipline comes from remembering my purpose and my gift. Being true to myself in keeping my yes meaning yes and my no meaning no.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

I take the foundation , knowledge (or lack )of vegetables, fruits ,flowers and raise the understanding.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Three qualities to gain knowledge for the next level that have worked for me are; Search for understanding the matter of a thing. Whatever question that keeps you up. Understanding that and you start your walk for purpose.
To know what questions to ask and understand how to hear the answer, which is not always in the way we think.
Always walking the path of truth, with the guidance of understanding through the power of God.
My advise on folks earlier in the journey is to have fun, hurt but heal,laugh and dont linger. Love and be loved because You are, that’s the matter and purpose.

Thanks so much for sharing all these insights with us today. Before we go, is there a book that’s played in important role in your development?
The Bible known as The Holy Scriptures of the Word of God.
One of the most valuable or impactful nuggets of wisdom for me is that, I was made in my mother’s womb. I have been remarkably and wonderfully made. I was seen by God before I had form. All my days were written in HIS book and planned before a single one of them began. I know that The Creator searched me and knows me. I am kept by my maker. He has placed His hand on me. There is nowhere to go without being in His presence by His Power. This is the day that Yahuah has made. I will rejoy and be glad in it and give praise to my Father. The Maker of Heaven and Earth.
