There was something about the process that made him fall in love with food. The art. The freedom. The ability to speak the universal language of flavor. Unlike most people with degrees in Economics from Fordham, Myles graduated college without complete conviction in pursuing a career on Wall Street. While the opportunity was certainly there for Myles, he felt called to pursue a different path. That path wasn't conventional, but it felt right. His untapped curiosity for the world of food led Myles to the rich culinary world of Mexico. He spent months studying and training in the kitchen with some of the more talented chefs in Mexico, developing a deep appreciation for the art of creating simple and delicious food through timeless traditions & techniques. He was immediately inspired. As Myles refined his skills in Michelin-star kitchens in Mexico, his appreciation for the elements of quality food shifted. How can you take something as simple as a taco and create an experience that will live with someone for the rest of their life? It's a sensory piece of art that only food can provide. It wasn't simply the food that spoke to him. Myles saw what food meant to culture and bringing people together too. It's as if good food had a way of bridging two separate experiences, two separate lives, and in a moment, turning them into one shared connection. It's this element of cooking that Myles brought back with him to Austin.
As you'll here in the podcast, Myle's experience in Mexico taught him that food is a bridge for human connection. It inspired him to share his knowledge and love for food with friends and family. But that's not all he was sharing with them. The meals and dishes he made are all part of a story. A journey in developing an intuition for life and exploring creativity. A story about where you've been, what you've seen, and the taste for things that inspire you. Our conversation with our friend Myles explored the art of food, the power of creativity, and the process of not only finding, but also pursuing, a life you love. Myles is one of the most cool & inspiring guys we know and it was an absolute pleasure to share this conversation with him. We hope you enjoy!

What is The Meat Mafia Podcast?
The Meat Mafia Podcast is hosted by @MeatMafiaBrett and @MeatMafiaHarry.
We're two guys who walked away from the typical path to carve out something different. Based in Austin, we’re on a mission to figure out what it takes to live a fulfilled life in a world that often pushes us away from meaning.
We have conversations with people we believe can help us, diving deep into the pillars of health, wealth, and faith, as the cornerstones of our mission.
Whether it's challenging the modern food system, questioning conventional health advice, or building something from the ground up, we're here to explore the tough questions and share the lessons we’ve learned along the way.
If you're tired of the noise and ready to find meaning, tune in and join us!
