    Your voice is so soothing. Thank you for sharing your journey! What a huge sacrifice you and your wife made, and how brave of you to be so honest with us. So often people pretend and they don’t speak of the winter months. I’m so glad you made it to the other side.

    Nice to meet you Leo on YT. I will pray 🙏🏽 for you and your family. I believe you will be blessed with God’s Miracle gifts to you. How about a good Challah Bread? There are people who will drive many miles to get challah bread. It has to be sold on Thursdays or Fridays for Sabbath Day. Start out with a few loaves 4 or 6 loaves. If possible do the 3 braid or better the 4 braid. I will give you my recipe if you like. But don’t give recipe out because people will always come to you for it. Young man you seem to be a very good family man!!!! Willing to work for a living and support your family. How wonderful . Please mention where you live now? I am in Michigan USA. A senior in age. 🇺🇸

    We learn how to handle life by the challenges we face. Be strong all the hardships pass.

  • @elizabethwalters7741
    @elizabethwalters7741 3 місяці тому +6

    So glad you hung in there because it opened a lot of new doors for you. True what you said about the hardship is meant to make us thik of a way through it instead of giving up. At first its hard to understand that the answers are always available if we keep going. It's probably better to face the difficulties pursuing the dream than to accept the life given to you. To live with that choice every day is much harder.
    Truly inspiring keep sharing more of your amazing story.

    I really appreciate that you shared about your bakery business. Make sure that you take care of yourself and family. Wife needs you and kids grow up fast.
    Make sure you take advantage of the seasons for holidays and certain fruits. Come up with one pastry that epitomizes you, get feed back from your patrons that's how you grow

    Leo as always words of wisdom. I'm sure many people will benefit from your experiences. God put you on this path for a reason. Your bakery is also your ministry. I'll be praying for you and your family and I know that God will continue to bless you. This is only the beginning.

    This is a fantastic video. My daughter bakes most of these items and for a time when we were in between jobs we sold baked goods and they were a hit. But after we thought how would we get this off the ground if we were serious? No one ever documents the true struggle it takes to build a business. Thank you for sharing

    Your so brave for having your own bakery business as it’s so tough, it’s so inspirational. You could always advertise workshops for groups even small groups like 4-6 people, could charge at least £20 each for a work shop. Could advertise on facebook or eventbrite. People would be particularly interested in sourdough.
