Happiness Hack: Approach Life Like An Italian Chef with Debi Mazar & Chef Gabriele Corcos

Moderated by Big Think editor Jason Olson
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What does an adaptive and inventive life look like? Well, it looks a lot like Italian cooking. Tuscan chef Gabriele Corcos and American actor Debi Mazar bring their creative forces to Big Think Live to discuss risk-taking, career pivoting, and why your approach to food can be an instruction manual for reinvention, love and family.

GABRIELE CORCOS:

Gabriele Corcos is a Tuscan chef and Ducati rider. He is the creator and producer of Extra Virgin on the Cooking Channel, a NY Times Best Selling author, and James Beard Award recipient. After studying medicine and enlisting in the Italian military, Gabriele took a chance, making financial and motorcycle sacrifices to study music in Brazil. His love for the drums later led him to travel extensively through Cuba and Europe. In 2001, while in Florence, he met Debi Mazar and his love for her led him to another new home: Los Angeles, California. It was on moving to the United States with Debi that his heritage in Tuscan cooking began to manifest in standing out as an authentic, Italian chef. His youth amongst grape vines, olive trees, and in his grandmother’s kitchen, had converged and turned him into the Tuscan Gun we know today.
