Lights, Camera, Sake: The Dual Life of Marina Giordano

On this episode of Becoming Next On Scene, we welcome back Emmy Award–winning director and nationally recognized sake expert Marina Giordano for her third appearance on the show. By day, Marina is a powerhouse behind the camera at Channel 7, and by night she’s one of the country’s leading voices on the art and culture of sake.
Five years ago, Marina noticed a gap in New England’s cultural scene: sake was largely unknown and underrepresented. Determined to change that, she launched Sake Day East, which has now grown into one of Boston’s most unique and celebrated cultural festivals.
In this conversation, we cover:    •    How Marina first fell into the world of sake and cultural events.    •    The evolution of Sake Day East from small beginnings to a 5-year tradition.    •    Behind-the-scenes challenges and leadership lessons in running a festival.    •    What attendees can expect at this year’s 5th anniversary celebration.    •    Marina’s personal legacy in shaping Boston’s cultural and culinary landscape.
Whether you’re a sake enthusiast, a lover of cultural festivals, or curious about what it really takes to grow an idea into a lasting tradition, this episode will leave you inspired and ready to raise a glass

Tune in to get inspired, feel seen, and learn what it really means to build a life — and business — with purpose.
