KIC Back Episode 3, we sit down with Mark Persaud, a Guyanese American personal injury attorney who’s built his career on stepping into people’s lives when everything goes wrong.

From working his way through law school to now representing clients across New York, Mark’s journey is rooted in discipline, consistency, and a real understanding of what people go through during some of the hardest moments of their lives.

In this episode, we go deeper than just law. We talk about what it actually takes to build trust in a space where people often feel overlooked, the importance of staying connected to your culture while navigating professional spaces, and why being present for your clients matters more than anything else.

We also get into the reality of the legal world, the mistakes people make after accidents, and how easily things can go wrong when you don’t have the right guidance.

This is a conversation about responsibility, reputation, and what it means to truly show up for your community.

KIC Back Episode 4, we sit down with Alica, the creator behind Alica’s Pepperpot, a platform that’s helped bring Indo Caribbean and West Indian food stories to people all over the world.

From growing up in Queens to building a brand rooted in culture and tradition, Alica opens up about the journey behind the recipes, the challenges she faced, and how food became a way for her to better understand her identity and community.

In this episode, we go far beyond cooking. We talk about growing up West Indian in New York, family traditions, cultural expectations, and the memories tied to the meals that brought generations together. From doubles and pepperpot to stories that will feel familiar to so many of us, this conversation is honest, funny, and deeply relatable.

Because food was never just food. It was always connection.

KIC Back Episode 1

In our first episode, we sit down and talk about the journey behind KIC Tassa, from early struggles to becoming a recognized name in the space.

We dive into culture, discipline, and what it really takes to build something meaningful in today’s world.

If you’re building something of your own or care about where our community is headed, this is where the conversation starts.

In this episode sit down with Bharati Sukul Kemraj, someone we’ve known for years through the Vishnu Mandir, a place that has played a major role in shaping our community and our own lives.

Bharati’s story is rooted in culture, family, and service. As the daughter of Pandit Vishnu, her upbringing was deeply connected to the Mandir and the responsibility that comes with preserving something bigger than yourself. From her early years growing up between Guyana and the Bronx to the work she continues today, her journey reflects both tradition and evolution.

In this episode, we go beyond surface level. We talk about her upbringing, her family, and the foundation that was built long before any titles or recognition. We also get into the current state of our community, where things stand today, and what it actually takes to move forward without losing what matters most.

This is a conversation about legacy, identity, and the reality of carrying culture into the next generation.
