In this episode of the #MeetCoolPeople Podcast, I had the pleasure of bringing in one of my best friends, the Brownie Queen herself Katarina Alshaier. She is the entrepreneurial force behind Devour Sweets, an online brownie boutique based in Miami. Our conversation led to a deep dive into Katarina's evolution from a local brownie vendor to a nationwide sensation, showing just how powerful networking, innovation, and unwavering dedication to quality service truly are the keys to creating success.
Katarina's journey highlighted the impact of adapting to challenges as she pivoted her business strategy in the face of the pandemic. Her shift to virtual networking and catering to the demands of gluten-free and vegan customers showcased her entrepreneurial mindset under pressure.
One key takeaway from our discussion with Kat is the importance of starting small and remaining consistent in both business development and networking efforts. Through her experience catering for Daymond John from Shark Tank, Katarina underscored the significance of building relationships & seizing opportunities.
Her journey serves as a testament to the rewards of dedication and unwavering commitment to entrepreneurial endeavors.

We have this amazing technology that keeps us closer than we've ever been yet we're less connected than ever and have become slaves to our technology.
The same technology that was meant to be a tool to help us make life easier and be closer.
The #MeetCoolPeople Movement is to change that.
It's a reminder to put the phone down and pay attention to the people you're with right now.
It's a reminder that social media is there to connect and add value to the people of the world. Use it to Promote what you love, not bash what you don't.
It's a reminder to use that technology to reach out to someone that you can help and be there for them. Find out what they need right now and use your vast network to help make their day better.
It’s a reminder to thank someone for helping you out.
