Show notes

From law to lattice crusts, Dini McCullough Amozurrutia left her legal career to pursue a pandemic-born pie business — and never looked back! In this episode, host Brien Gearin chats with the founder of Dini’s Divine Pies about her leap from legal aid to full-time baker, how she launched at a winery on Mother’s Day with zero culinary background, and the grassroots growth that’s turned her into a local legend. Dini shares the joys and struggles of running a small batch bakery, the power of community and pop-ups, how she prices artisan pies, and why storytelling (not just sugar) is the secret ingredient behind her marketing. Whether you’re craving entrepreneurship or just a slice of key lime, this conversation is baked with heart!
