What if the moments that brought you to your knees were actually leading you home to yourself?

Jess sits down with the radiant Kim Morrison – five-time bestselling author, endurance athlete, aromatherapist, and founder of 28 Essentials. Kim opens her heart to share her journey from childhood responsibility, trauma, and heartbreak, through to resilience, motherhood, and radical self-love. With her signature warmth and wisdom, she reminds us that the pain isn’t the end – it’s the portal.

From the metaphor of ultramarathons to the reality of raising teenagers, Kim walks us through her own becoming and invites us to see our own hard moments through a new lens. This episode is a love letter to every woman who’s ever felt stuck, alone, or unsure of her worth.

In this episode, we explore:

• The early childhood experiences that shaped Kim’s sense of self
• How resilience and discipline became cornerstones of her healing
• What ultramarathon running taught her about life, the mind, and pain
• The power of mentors – and how they can show up in unexpected forms
• Kim’s Self-Love Circle – a practical framework for coming back to yourself

Reflection:

If you’re in a season that feels dark, messy, or uncertain – may this episode be a reminder that something powerful is unfolding beneath the surface.
