    Romanticising Life and Ritualising Business with Yasmin Kahlil

    Yasmin Kahlil — founder of Kodo London, the luxury fragrance brand redefining self-care through ritual and scent. Rooted in nostalgia and beauty in the everyday, Kodo is more than fragrance — it’s a feeling. Yasmin shares her journey from luxury interior design to launching Kodo. From her Eat Pray Love moment in Florence to creating bestsellers like “Morning Glory”, Yasmin invites us into the softer, slower side of entrepreneurship — where success is built through self-trust, intention, and the art of romanticising daily rituals. #WomenInBusiness #FeminineLeadership #DailyRituals KUOTES instagram: @KUOTES_london Sign-up to KUOTES Waitlist: https://kuotes.co.uk?utm_source=beyondthekuotes&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=Launchdress Kora's Instagram: @koragault

    Following the Light Within: Grace Williams on Healing, Nourishment & Coming Home to Self

    In this episode of Beyond the KUOTES, I interview Grace Williams, a certified health coach who shares her inspiring journey from a high-pressure career in law to a life of alignment as a holistic health coach. Grace so beautifully shares her journey navigating some of life's most difficult challenges, including her diagnosis with MS and how she became a career for both her parents who were  simultaneously diagnosed with cancer-  a time which profoundly shaped her perspective on both life and health.    We explore the the role of spirituality in navigating her grief and the peace that this connection has given her. Grace speaks with such tenderness about the importance of true nourishment — through food, energy, rest, and reflection — and how reconnecting with ourselves can often become the first step towards living a life of true happiness.   Grace’s ability to transform her pain into purpose is a radiant reminder of the quiet strength within women and the light that emerges when we choose to live in alignment with who we truly are.  Her story is stunning reflection of what it means to be a kind-hearted human and a true expression of love in this world.  With love,  Kora x Follow Grace : g_documented KUOTES instagram: @KUOTES_london Sign-up to KUOTES Waitlist: https://kuotes.co.uk?utm_source=beyondthekuotes&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=Launchdress Kora's Instagram: @koragault
