In today’s episode of the Carreiras no Canadá podcast, we travel to St. Catharines, in the Niagara region, to hear two inspiring stories of reinvention and success in Canada.
Luiz and João left behind solid careers in Brazil—one in law and the other in corporate logistics—to pursue a brand-new path in Canadian gastronomy. The result? They became specialists in artisan baking and secured strategic positions in both education and food sectors, proving that it’s possible to start over successfully, even in completely different fields.
🔹 In this deep and fun conversation, we talk about:
Immigration and the challenges of professional transition
Daily life at Canadian colleges, both as students and staff
The job market in gastronomy and artisan baking in Canada
How to turn a hobby into a career
The power of networking among immigrants
Cultural experiences, food—and yes, even what it’s like to eat a beaver tail!
🔹 What you’ll learn in this episode:
How to leave a public career and rebuild your professional life in Canada
The different paths to working in gastronomy or technical education
The importance of adaptability, persistence, and community support
Realities of the job market outside Toronto
Practical tips for those looking to study, open a business, or enter the food industry
