The Sovereign Kitchen Society is a weekly gathering place for people who feel the pull toward a life rooted in real food, personal sovereignty, family economy, and the old-world skills our grandparents treated as ordinary.
This podcast sits at the intersection of food and freedom. Each episode is a conversation with chefs, farmers and entrepreneurs who chose to step outside the modern maze and build a life that actually feeds them. We talk about the turning points—the moments when someone realized the system wasn’t going to save them, so they learned to save themselves. We talk about canning and cattle and kitchen-table businesses. But beneath it all, we’re talking about sovereignty: how you reclaim your time, your health, your income, and the way you feed your family.
You’ll hear how people turned old-world skills into income streams, rebuilt their nervous systems in their kitchens, raised children on broth instead of boxed snacks, and created home economies strong enough to withstand the noise of the outside world. You’ll learn how entrepreneurship can come from a single recipe, a garden bed, a batch of ferments, or a service you offer with your own two hands.
The Sovereign Kitchen Society helps you remember what you already know:
Food is freedom.
Skills are security.
And a family economy—no matter how small—can change everything.

In this episode of The Sovereign Kitchen Society, we explore what financial sovereignty really means—and how entrepreneurship can be the most powerful act of freedom you’ll ever make.
Shawn Finnegan, co-founder of Tax Hive and business partner to Kevin O’Leary (“Mr. Wonderful”), joins Molly Bravo to unpack the systems that separate small business owners from the financial strategies big corporations use every day. His mission is to close that gap—to help self-employed entrepreneurs keep more of what they earn, structure their businesses smartly, and thrive in today’s economy.
This conversation goes deeper than tax codes and write-offs—it’s about independence. It’s about building something that belongs to you. Because when you start your own business, you reclaim your time, your choices, and your creative power. You stop being beholden to anyone else’s paycheck or permission slip.
Shawn and Molly explore the intersection of entrepreneurship and sovereignty—how financial literacy is the backbone of freedom, how discipline leads to expansion, and how the same mindset that built empires can empower the modern maker, chef, and dreamer to build a life on purpose.
If you’ve ever wondered how to turn your passion into profit without losing your soul—or how to make your money work for you—this episode is your blueprint.
