This week, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Zach—better known as Mr. Mixer—the social media sensation who turned an unlikely passion for KitchenAid mixers into a thriving business. But this conversation goes far beyond kitchen appliances.
Zach shares his remarkable journey from working as a paramedic to becoming the go-to expert for repairing and restoring vintage mixers, breathing new life into treasured family heirlooms. We dig into the deeper meaning behind Zach’s work, discussing how the humble mixer becomes a vessel for family memories, the challenges of stepping away from a traditional career path, and what it takes to find— and build—your own unique passion.
If you’ve ever wondered how to reclaim your spark or escape a job that just isn’t lighting you up, this episode is packed with inspiration, candid advice, and a reminder that sometimes, finding your purpose is less about what you fix, and more about who you help.
