Born to humble beginnings in the beautiful twin islands of Trinidad and Tobago, Elle Seon migrated to the mosaic that is Toronto at a young age. Battling the many social and climactic changes that are associated with moving to another country would prove be the very least of her problems.
The third of four children, Elle realized very early on that she was not being fed by the almighty golden spoon. She would need to work for everything she desired and she wanted everything to be perfect; the obsession with perfection is what would ultimately lead her on a terrifying path. She is a survivor of domestic abuse and also a survivor of sexual assault. Elle was also faced with nearly losing her life in a car accident. That accident would be the greatest blessing as it would prove to be her reality reality check and way out of an abusive relationship.
This sparked a passion in her to help other women who may be going through similar issues. In January 2009, she launched The Power of One – a campaign aimed at inspiring people young and old alike to
achieve their dreams. She intends to arouse the desire to attain overall health in the mind, body and soul of those she helps.
Also a poet and published author of two books entitled Elleoquently Yours Volume I: Life & Love, and also A Path for Lilly. She has plans to release two more novels in 2012.
Elle has a seemingly endless amount of roles that she plays and hats that she wears as an author, motivational speaker, publisher and mentor. However, when asked about which of her roles brings her the most joy the answer is almost immediate – motherhood. She is a proud mother to two beautiful little girls, who she praises for
giving her constant inspiration and motivation.
Elle currently resides in the greater toronto area with her family.
Elle Seon will be on our show live tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern/5 p.m. Pacific.

Jamaican by birth, Chef Anthony Mair was raised in Toronto, Ontario Canada. At 10 years old his curiosity in the art of hospitality and gastronomy was awakened. Since then he has not looked back. Anthony graduated in Culinary Management at George Brown College in Toronto Canada. He has refined his culinary skills through various cooking competitions across Canada, The USA, and Europe.
Chef Mair has worked for and managed numerous restaurants over the years that included, French, Italian, Asian, Russian, Greek, Southern U.S., Jamaican, Trinidadian, etc. He has personally owned and managed 6 restaurants, the latest of which is the restaurant at the Westender Inn resort in Jamaica. He has been on TV shows and competed in Food Network Iron Chef competitions. His expertise has given him the opportunity to make many judging, guest chef, and guest speaker appearances along with instructing classes at Culinary Colleges.
In his ever present urge to help/give back to the culinary
students of Jamaica, Chef Mair founded Mair Cutlery and the Caribbean Culinary Network (CCN). Mair Cutlery is a knife sales and sharpening service that came about after he realized that there was a need for proper knives, knife technique, and kitchen equipment in Jamaica and other Caribbean islands. Mair Cutlery has opened up a door that gives ALL culinary students and professionals access to quality knives.
CCN is an education driven, Caribbean-wide collective of food professionals. Together, we’re working to become THE central resource for all things culinary. Through CCN’s workshops, events (Negril Culinary showcase, Chef’s Day Off, etc), information databases, and mentorship programs, culinary students will gain access to the specialty knowledge and practical experience necessary for acquiring diversity and global marketability.
