Susan Schochet, Neighbor

Sue Schochet is proof that following one’s passion pays off. A healthy cooking expert, she educates busy people about how to eat healthfully. She is the owner of Healthy Habits Kitchen in Wellesley, MA, a food store offering grab, go, cook and serve meals.

As long as Sue can remember she’s loved to eat, cook and entertain, but it wasn’t until 2007 that her personal passions would collide with her business background. For over 20 years, she worked as an executive in the insurance and financial services industries for such market leaders as New York Life and Fidelity Investments. While working in corporate America, Sue continually struggled with finding the time to maintain a healthy lifestyle, as well as pursue her true loves in life. In 2006, her life took a major turn when she left the insurance industry to follow her true passions and, in the process, help other busy people accomplish what she had long-struggled with. Using her background in finance, she founded Healthy Habits Kitchen in 2007

Under Sue’s direction, Healthy Habits Kitchen prepares and delivers hundreds of meals each week to discriminating customers in the Metro West, Massachusetts area, working with everyone from stay-at-home moms to busy executives. Since starting the company, it has become one of only two meal preparation centers in the area.

When she’s not in the kitchen formulating new recipes, Sue enjoys traveling, cooking, networking and yoga. She holds a B.S. in Finance and Management from Bentley University.
