Today’s episode was recorded at this year’s Shine Away conference, hosted by Reese Witherspoon’s media company, Hello Sunshine. Asma Khan, the chef and owner of Darjeeling Express, joins Radio Cherry Bombe host Kerry Diamond on stage to talk about her inspiring life and career. “I am what I am because I was put through fire,” says Asma.

Asma didn’t set out to be a chef. In fact, she didn’t even know how to cook when she got married. Today, there’s a “Chef’s Table” episode about her on Netflix, she was on this year’s TIME 100 list, and she has a new cookbook, her third, out this March titled "Monsoon: Delicious Indian Recipes for Every Day and Season.” She talks about her unlikely start in the culinary world, her all-female kitchen, how she raised the money to open her business, and her commitment to female empowerment.
