amy_kalafa_2.jpgAmy Kalafa of the Two Angry Moms, was amazing as she merged her talent as filmmaker with her passion for real food, to create a compelling story that connects us to the movement of making our school lunch program a winner, and how being Angry at the right time for the right reasons, makes all the difference.  She was the featured woman of our March 5, 2008 cafe.

The movie inspired a lively conversation among the diverse women in the audience, which included mothers, teachers, nutritionist, kids health specialists, wellness committee members, and entrepreneurs all "self-starters", as Amy observed. The topics discussed resonated on so many important issues that mattered to us:


  • How to make change within a resistant school system
  • How branding yourself as "Angry" can really make a splash and gain attention
  • Why food is thy medicine and how connecting to food's source heals what ails us
  • What resources are available to parents and those within the school system to help facilitate change to a healthier menu
  • When you combine your talents and your passion, you can find your life purpose.

A feature of the Soul at Work Café is to highlight women leading in their own way, as Amy did by making her film. A benefit is that the women who attend leave inspired, educated, and connected with a few more women who can help them along their unique paths.
