Ep 67: Not Afraid Of The Pivot: Carla Hall On Creativity, Curiosity, and The Many Paths She’s Taken
Carla Hall is a force. Her effervescence is a welcome ingredient in the many shows she has fronted, including “The Chew,” Fox’s “Next Level Baker,” and Food Network’s “Holiday Baking Challenge” and “Worst Cooks in America.” But what might surprise you is that she began her professional career as an accountant after being rejected from her chosen college and a dream of studying theater.
In her conversation with Karen Finerman, Carla shares how she has dealt with disappointment and setbacks, inevitably turning them into triumphs. A creative and curious entrepreneur, she has authored award-winning cookbooks, created a line of cookware for QVC, and established an online platform to guide women through personal and professional challenges. She is not afraid of embracing what’s new and next, and she is on a mission to encourage other women to approach life the same way.
💬 In this episode, we explore:
The life-long dream Carla is making come true in 2026
Her thoughts on reuniting with Clinton Kelly and Michael Symon on their “Chewed Up” show and podcast
Why she decided to go grey on national TV
How she advocated for herself on “The Chew” when she was being passed over for opportunities
Her story of meeting her husband and getting married - after 40
