Today I'm sharing how I went from Clueless to confident about cars. As women came into our shop, I passed along the knowledge about what was going on under the hood of their car while my husband worked.

More About Our Story:
My husband and I own & run Kingdom Auto Repair (KAR) Shop alongside our four beautiful kiddos in Orange County. Recognizing how hard the car industry has become for women, we founded this business committed to integrity, honesty, and transparency. It all began with a simple belief: there is a better way to run an automotive shop.
But six years ago I didn’t know anything about cars myself. With my first two babies along for the ride, I set out to learn the basics in car maintenance, learning slowly side-by-side my husband, he is the expert on the field.
Over the years, I went from clueless to confident and so as women came into our shop, I passed along the knowledge about what was going on under the hood of their car while my husband worked. In those years, we’ve heard so many stories about women who were overcharged, intimidated, misled or even straight lied to about what their car needs.
So Ladies KAR Care was born. We launched at the end of 2019. We hosted clinics at our shop where we teach women about the car basics and how to learn the mechanic language. We had over 100 women every time we did our clinics.
Due to the Covid-19, we had to stop gathering but that was an opportunity to go online and help more women in this matter. We are creating a community to support each other to gain confidence and grow together… we have a community of over 2500 women now supporting each other. We launch our first product to support women as well. A car maintenance planner.
