Your Host

Hello I am KK and its really lovely to know that you reached this far on my invitation to join me for some exquisite time, to remember who you are and how important it is to make time for the self.

For the past 20 years or so I have been in service to others around the world, transforming lives one body at a time. At times I have the honour to affiliate with some of the top resort destinations for wellness - such as The Aman Residents and Six Senses Spas and Resorts - offering a unique menu in mind/body fitness & divine spa bodyworks to their valued guests.

When covid struck, like many, my work/life/balance took a hit. At the time I just arrived in Paris (unchartered territories for this me) and seemingly got stuck in my own little rut of what to do. Due to the pandemic restrictions and inevitable changes I noticed I began to hide behind the decisions I made for myself and realised that the situation unfolding was creating doubt, uncertainty and fears in me. Not having any friends and language knowledge really emphasised my sense of being alone and unable to be sociable

Because of strict travel measures and defiance in me not to comply, I was unable to resume my life long work of defining myself as a "A global floating wellness goddess". And like many others, I found myself settling for the 'new normal' and an ordinary way of being. And for a time, I convinced myself that there was no way out. The result? My life took a turn, becoming for the first time... boring, uninspiring and full of mundane things to ponder. I felt constantly overwhelmed… And began to loathe what I was becoming. Especially since I knew a few years before, this was not who I was at all!

Then one night, whilst lying in bed I asked myself…

"KK who are you? And what do I want to be in this New Normal next chapter?" The answer was… ‘Not this shrinking violet that I am becoming... NO WAY!!!’

So then the next question was…

"OK... So how do I snap out of this "Shrinking Violet mode and get my exquisite mojo back to thriving and driving with passionate force, like the free flowing goddess in service that I once was?"

Deep down, I knew I had to step out of my 'comfort zone and set out on a new journey of levelling up. Resetting my mind, priorities, goals and rediscovery myself again.

With that process, it showed me how to open up to new possibilities and give myself permission to delve deep into remembering who I AM and what’s really important to me.

Thankfully the 'knowing' came back fast!

The message was.. "Come on girl! get promoting optimal health and wellbeing... Get back to sharing your unique skills and sharing your life experiences with others to inspire beautiful people who cross paths with me on this journey we call LIFE. Find beautiful locations... AND manifest that dream to host retreats that allows "busy minds and bodies" to stop in an exquisite setting, have a moment to just be and remember who they are.

By the way, I’m still on that journey but oh boy it feels soooo good to share it with you! I feel so excite to invite on an escape odyssey in my unchartered territory. France is a stunning country and as someone that’s lived a nomadic life for two decades, I feel its time to Escape with KK (that’s me;) again and together we can start a next level journey to Remembering our True Selves. So please, come join me and let’s Stop... Breathe… Move our body and manifest a truly happy and authentic life together!

One final heart-felt message sharing your vision of the trip

As a certified Fitness Professional skilled in a plethora of exercise methods, Spa Artist, Wellness Expert and Fashion Designer and Model for over 25 years combined and who loves the world of wellbeing, fitness, style and self care, I have a lot to share and so it has become my mission to seek out that stylishly dashing destination, that’s going to provide the perfect backdrop for me to treat and train others, transforming how they see and treat themselves, so that they can be inspired to live the lives they truly deserve to have.
