ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Simon Wood joins Sophie Sveinsson for a powerful conversation about passion, pressure and starting over.
From growing up cooking with his grandad to feeling trapped in an IT career, Simon always knew food was where he belonged — but winning MasterChef changed everything overnight. Thrust into the spotlight, he built his dream restaurant and a team that became family… until it all came crashing down.
In this episode, Simon opens up about the highs of sudden success, the heartbreak that followed, and the fight to rebuild when everything you’ve worked for is suddenly gone.
