| Introduction | No Reservations represents Suzanne's latest attempt to reinvent herself and bring new meaning to the next phase of her life. Suzanne is 50 years old, married to Daniel for 24 years, and the mother of two teenaged sons, Zachary & Adam. In her earlier life, Suzanne worked as an executive assistant to one of the top talent agents in the world, which led her to decide to try to help people with mental illness instead of just getting them coffee. Hence, she received a Masters in Social Welfare from UCLA, becoming a family and child therapist. With the birth of her first child, her next career--Stay at Home Mom -- began, which allowed her to pursue her dreams of family/home and culinary excellence. As the boys have grown and become independent, Suzanne suffered a major mid-life crisis and is now embarking on a new adventure to start her own culinary business: "Home cooked meals delivered to your door" with the creation of No Reservations. She invites you to follow the trials and tribulations that ensue on this latest path to finding herself and finding fulfillment. |
