The Power of Process: Yifat’s Story of Transformation
In this episode of Success Your Own Way, Yifat shares her journey from growing up in Israel to becoming a food scientist, corporate leader, and now a consultant. A study abroad experience at NC State sparked her passion for food engineering, leading to a master’s and PhD. Though she once aimed to be a professor, she pivoted to a 12-year career at General Mills before launching her own consulting business.
Yifat reflects on the pivotal decisions to studying abroad and prioritizing her health, which led to a 70-pound weight loss and renewed vitality. Her scientific background helped her make informed choices around nutrition, focusing on long-term health metrics over quick fixes.
She credits mentors for shaping her path and encourages others to challenge career “shoulds,” reflect on what truly matters, and trust the process. Her story is a powerful reminder that success is personal, nonlinear, and worth pursuing with intention.
