Natalie. What's up, Nat Nat? Hi, Michelle and Craig. My name is Noelle and I'm 36 years old. My whole career, I've had one dream to write a cookbook. Since college, I've worked single-mindedly towards doing this. I've written for food magazines, become an innovator, house recipe developer. I worked as a cheesemonger.

I've even become a food stylist to help other people realize their own cookbook dreams. In the midst of it all, I've also been scheming up and dreaming my cookbook. Until recently, though, it really felt like it would never happen. And then, bam, I got a book deal. My first cookbook will come out late next year. So you might be wondering, what's the problem? That's my question to you.

After years of working towards one thing, I found myself oddly unhappy now that I've achieved it. I don't feel I've made enough progress in the rest of my life. I've made very little money. I don't have the house I hoped I'd have or the relationship I thought I might. I fear I've given up so much for one thing, and I'm really not sure it feels worth it.
