From Makeup to MasterChef: Next Level Chef Semi Finalist Omi Hopper’s Story

In this episode of Growing Up Latina, we welcome the “Latina Martha Stewart,” Omi Hopper. Join Alyi V as she chats with Omi about her journey from a challenging childhood with divorced parents to becoming a mom of four. Omi shares how healing her own childhood trauma shaped her parenting style, her decade-long career as a makeup artist, and the pivotal moment her grandmother’s passing inspired her to start “Cooking Con Omi.” Hear about Omi’s remarkable experience as a semi-finalist on Next Level Chef with Gordon Ramsay, and her relentless pursuit that led to a book deal after 11 rejections. Omi’s story is one of resilience, proving that true success comes from hard work and perseverance, not overnight fame.
