How did Kitchen Killa get her start? In this episode of Mama We Made It!, with Dj and Reg, Dj and Reg host Kiara Hardy, Owner of Kitchen Killa, a culinary company in Portland, OR.

She shares her origin story and how she went from a regular (well paid job) through culinary school, building her new life as a private chef, and finally finding her place in Kitchen Killa, where she builds extravagant culinary masterpieces, but also a community of talented chefs and food enthusiasts.

The trio discusses the importance of business, team management, and understanding how profit can come from passion - as long as you don't lose sight of what's really important and continue to provide a meaningful experience for everyone involved.

The Florida Senate recently passed the Teddy Bridgewater Act - allowing coaches to use up to $15,000 of personal funds to help their students. Dj and Reg discuss how they feel about this development.

Even if we ignore the fact that these lawmakers never agree on anything and we trust this decision will enable a brighter path for affected students, what are the guardrails, how do we protect the students, and how do we also assist programs that aren't necessarily athletic?

Dj and Reg discuss these, and other implications of this newly passed Act. How do you feel about it? What would you like to see happen?
