In this powerful episode of the Open Bar Podcast, we sit down with Chuck, the founder of Soul’d Out Kitchen, one of LA’s most talked-about pop-up food spots and catering brands.

Chuck opens up about his upbringing, his journey traveling overseas to play basketball, and the life-changing injury that forced him to completely pivot. What could have broken him instead became the beginning of a new purpose — building a business from scratch and feeding the city with love, flavor, and soul.

We get into:

🔥 How basketball shaped his discipline

💥 The setback that changed everything

🍽️ The birth and rise of Soul’d Out Kitchen

💰 Entrepreneurship, consistency, and keeping faith through the grind

🏆 How he’s still elevating, expanding, and building legacy

This episode is one of inspiration, grind, and believing in yourself even when the playbook changes.
