This episode is full of energy, grit, and heart — just like Kiah herself.

After years in the Bay Area restaurant scene and co-founding Far Out Catering, Chef Kiah Fuller took a leap to start Plated by Chef Kiah — a private dining brand that brings high-end experiences to people’s homes and communities.

In this episode, Kiah shares what she learned from her time in fine dining, the scrappy early days of entrepreneurship, and how she’s building a business rooted in artistry, inclusivity, and joy.
