Marie Ducote-Comeaux’s path to Cajun Food Tours wasn’t a straight line — it wound through a public relations degree, a stint managing a Pizza Hut, and 14 years in education before she ever thought about buying a bus. In this episode, she tells John how her faith guided her through each transition, and how a love for food tours discovered on her own travels eventually became the business she runs today.
It’s a story about paying attention to what lights you up, even when it doesn’t look like a business plan at first. Marie also shares her favorite Cajun dish and what she loves most about the people of Acadiana.
