FOR PEOPLE WITH PROBLEMS
OR PEOPLE WHO ARE THE PROBLEM
Is your salad too acidic?
Is your fish overcooked again?
Did you spend $300 on a bottle of wine that tastes like vinegar?
Is your container stuck somewhere between Shanghai and New Jersey?
Is your construction project six months late, $4 million over budget, and somehow still missing a bathroom?
Did your architect design something beautiful that nobody knows how to build?
Did your designer convince you that beige is a personality?
Looking for an Italian food importer who actually imports Italian food?
Need a chef who can cook, not just explain his philosophy on Instagram?
Can't find the right wine, the right supplier, the right investor, or the right reason to get out of bed?
Need to negotiate a contract with someone who thinks negotiation means saying NO in three different languages?
Did your business partner suddenly discover spirituality right before paying you?
Is your restaurant empty but your Instagram has 80,000 followers?
Are your employees having more meetings than customers?
Do you have a fantastic business idea that absolutely nobody understands?
Including you?
OR MAYBE IT'S PERSONAL.
Did your girlfriend leave you?
Did your boyfriend leave you for someone who makes better risotto?
Does your husband think he's always right?
Does your wife actually know she's always right?
Are your kids driving you insane?
Did your teenager just explain capitalism to you using your own credit card?
Did your therapist suggest you need another therapist?
Do you simply need someone to listen to you complain about people who don't know how to make a proper carbonara?
