LT sits down with Laura Gardner, founder of Local Style Chips — the bold and flavorful chip brand inspired by the iconic foods of Chicago. What started as a deep-down dream to build something of her own didn’t fully ignite until Laura was unexpectedly let go from her corporate job. Instead of seeing it as the end, she chose to see it as her beginning. With grit, heart, and relentless hustle, Laura turned uncertainty into opportunity — launching a uniquely Chicago-inspired snack brand that, just one year later, is shipping nationwide across the United States. This episode is a masterclass in resilience, reinvention, and betting on yourself when life forces your hand. Did we mention her chips landed on the craft table of The Bear before she even officially launched the brand? Talk about a debut.
