In this episode, I talk with Chef Colette Knight (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/gudgudpudin/">@gudgudpudin</a>) of Atlanta-based <a href="https://gudgudpudin.com/">Gud Gud Puddin </a>about her family legacy of hospitality service and how she’s using her new specialty dessert company as a rebirth of her professional life and her passion for community building as well as pastry artist Arley Bell (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/arley.cakes/">@arley.cakes</a>) of Richmond-based <a href="https://www.arleycakes.com/">Arley Cakes </a>whose practice pairs social responsibility with entrepreneurship to model the possibilities for this era of civil rights activism.</p>
