Hospitality Meets is a podcast about people. Every week, Phil Street sits down with some of the most fascinating individuals in hospitality and beyond - from chefs, hoteliers, restaurateurs, and entrepreneurs to leaders, innovators, and changemakers. But this isn't a podcast about job titles. It's about the journeys behind them. The setbacks that almost ended careers. The opportunities that changed lives. The lessons learned through success, failure, risk, resilience, and everything in between. Through honest conversations, laughter, and the occasional unexpected life lesson, Hospitality Meets explores what it really takes to build a career, lead people, create memorable experiences, and find meaning in the work we do. Whether you're taking your first steps in hospitality, leading a business, or simply love hearing remarkable stories from remarkable people, you'll find inspiration, perspective, and plenty of reasons to believe in people. Because every great story starts with a conversation. Hospitality Meets. Stories. Spirit. People.
