Hi, I’m Kim

In a nutshell…

The essence of me is a person who wants to do good in the world, move through life with humor, kindness, is playful, open, introverted and extroverted. I can get deep and serious but I don’t take myself or life too seriously. I have 2 awesome daughters. I value experiences over material possessions but I like nice things and shop with intention. I am good with my hands and can make and create most things I put my mind to. My soft spot is clay. I love pottery. But I’m also know for throwing together a good plate of food, getting the sewing machine out or re-painting the colours in my home. 

I’m Swedish born, English raised and now living in Berlin 17 years. The most spontaneous thing I ever did was moving to Italy with 2 weeks notice and it was the best year of my life. I speak 4 languages, sometimes daily. I enjoy coffee 3 different ways which all speaks to my values of diversity and freedom.

I studied interior and product design and this quickly took me into a design career within high-end interiors from my mid 20’s. That’s been

MY TRANSFORMATIVE STORY

How it started

It started with 3 main catalysts:

  1. One of my closest friends past away just 11 months after he received a cancer diagnosis.

  2. I realised I had no concept of what selfcare was.

  3. I could see the vision of what I thought my life would be like, but the reality was very different. I felt stuck, exhausted, not enough and very overwhelmed. All this led to waking up one day with what I can only describe as a mid-life hangover in 2019.

    All this started this chapter of my took me from an unhappy marriage, time poor and overwhelmed business owner and mother of two, to a life of abundance beyond money.

All this started a powerful, sometimes deeply uncomfortable, but very neccessary spiritual and personal development chapter of my life.

How it’s going

The awareness and honesty with myself that came over the next few years have led me to: Leave an unhappy marriage, take me from time poor and overwhelmed with a constant low level anxiety to feeling calm and regulated. Instead of feeling life im in a storm, I’m calm waves, lapping along the shore.

I’m still a business owner and mother of two, but I changed all aspects of how I work. From haveing a full interior design studio with million Euro projects, to retraining as a Transformative Life coach and NEO Emotional Release Facilitator and now working predominantly in this field, alongside consulting, rather than running on interiors projects.

I can truly say I’m happy and satiated with life. In this time I’ve lost and regained my energy, found new friends and hobbies, started a new career, happily divorced and above all, I’ve re-gained a deep sense of self worth and self esteem.

Beyond all this life change, what I’m most grateful for is the re-connection to my body. I’ve also overcome chronic physical symptoms such as repeated IBS and inflamed skin flare ups, back and hip pain, emotional numbing with food and other distractions and a nervous system that understands what it means to be calm.

What I’m most proud of is how much I invested in myself, believed in myself and can now move in the world being the kind of role model for my daughters which I knew then I didn’t have the capacity for.
