Meet Nadine Moore

 

We recently connected with Nadine Moore and have shared our conversation below.

Nadine, we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?

I was never handed anything in life. Everything I have ever had was earned from hard work and dedication. My parents worked hard for everything they had, my father worked and traveled with the military and my mother worked in addition to caring for our family. I gained my family’s work ethic and always wanted to be fully Independent from the age of 16. Working as a woman in chef in big cities like NYC also taught me to have a tough skin!

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

Birria Babe is a brand built on a dream and pushed by a pandemic. I was let go of my job when I had Covid and it pushed me to create Birria Babe. Birria Babe isn’t a brand, she’s a real woman, she’s a chef, she is me! When supporting us you’re supporting me and my dreams! She has also recently grown into a restaurant in addition to the food truck you can find us inside Cyanide Cinder 12p-7p Thursday-Sunday.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

Through the trials and tribulations of having a truck I never gave up. It was hard, we had electrical issues, plumbing issues, generator issues, parking issues, car issues, trailer issues, wether issues, spills, and I almost broke my leg once while working alone. It was never easy but I never quit. Never give up on your dreams no matter how hard the path is!!

How would you spend the next decade if you somehow knew that it was your last?

Now our newest challenge has been to get the truck back on the road after creating and staffing our restaurant. I’m still figuring out the logistics on a daily basis but I am so proud we have come this far!
