In this episode, Sienna tells her Dad Ben she wants to grow up and be a chef with bestselling cookbooks - just like Chelsea Winter!

Chelsea’s life changed completely when she took a chance on MasterChef New Zealand. Winning the show launched her into a career writing bestselling cookbooks and inspiring Kiwis in the kitchen.

In this conversation, Sienna and Ben cover:

• Growing up on a farm and discovering a love for cooking
• The bold leap from a regular office job to competing on MasterChef New Zealand
• Behind-the-scenes stories from the show - the pressure, surprises, and funny moments
• Life as a full-time chef and author, including her latest cookbook Nourish
• How she encourages kids (and parents!) to cook and eat healthy
• Advice for teens dreaming of a career in cooking and what she would tell her younger self
• Hilarious kitchen disasters, guilty pleasures, and family food debates

It’s a funny, heartfelt, and inspiring chat about taking risks, staying grounded, and finding joy in what you do. Chelsea shows that cooking doesn’t have to be fancy - it can be simple, full of love, and that grabbing opportunities can change your life.
