 Supporting Mental Wellness in the Culinary Industry and Beyond

The pressure of the culinary world can be intense — long hours, high expectations, and demanding environments often leave little time to focus on mental well-being.

At Yes, Chef! Behind the Apron™️, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health. Whether you're a chef, restaurant worker, or someone feeling overwhelmed, know that you are not alone. There are resources available to help you cope, heal, and thrive.
