Someone thanked me for being consistent. I love that – it sums up what we need to be doing as leaders: Be consistent. Hold yourself accountable to what you say you are and what people expect. A lot of the people who need help are used to being abandoned. When you offer help, be accessible. If you can’t be, say when you are and follow up.

Chef Brother Luck is a highly regarded restaurateur from Colorado Springs, Colorado, who has made a name for himself in the culinary world. He has been nominated for a James Beard award and is a popular figure on cooking shows such as Top Chef, Chopped, and Beat Bobby Flay. 

Brother has also been featured in numerous publications, including Food and Wine Magazine and The New York Times, and has appeared on national TV programs like The Rachael Ray Show and the Today Show. 

His impact goes beyond the kitchen, however. Brother is a vocal advocate for mental health awareness and shares his personal journey in his well-received memoir, "No Lucks Given: Life is hard but there is hope." He is dedicated to mentoring and providing a safe space for open discussions on mental health topics, and he inspires large audiences both on stage and online.

And yes, that’s his real name.

As seen on.
