Kelly Ward Kussman is retail strategist, mentor, and entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience as a skilled leader in the retail industry. After suffering from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, almost losing her life, as well as her first baby, Kelly set out on a journey of self discovery and healing. It was through her own deep rituals and solo bi-annual trips to experience nature where she discovered the ability to move through her grief. Those personal trips led Kelly to founding and creating her company Cayla Gray, a luxury clean fragrance company rooted in love and celebration of oneself as an investment in our own individual wellbeing.

In this episode we talk:

• Moving & healing after grave loss
• How to make the leap from corporate employee to business owner
• The importance of transferable job skills and being a beginner
• How passion projects sometimes hold the key to what lights our soul on fire

and SO much more!

Kelly Whittaker-Cummings is a certified run coach as well as the chief instructor and northeast curriculum lead for Barry’s Bootcamp living here in Boston. When her career in finance felt like a major soul suck, she made a huge pivot to quit her job cold turkey to start working the front desk at Barry's Bootcamp. Through her passion for running and relatability not just as a coach, but also a human being, she has become one of the most sought after mentors in the red room and beyond. Embarking on her 43rd marathon next week in the 126th Boston Marathon, it's safe to say she knows a thing or two about what it takes to run your own race and help others along their mental and physical journey with running too.

No matter how healed and whole you are presently, you were once the villain in someone else's story. You can either let that stop you from showing up or you can let it empower you to press on and create a life that you're genuinely proud to wake up to.

Savannah Simon a.k.a. Sav is the founder and creator of Sweat with Sav. After college she started a corporate career in PR and Music but soon found out that the career trajectory she was on was not doing anything for her soul. Throw in the whirlwind of the pandemic and she found herself jobless wondering what she was going to do with her life. She wanted to share her passion and mindset around fitness, and turned to a small group of friends to see if they would workout with her over Zoom. She suddenly realized that ‘something’ (or the 'spark 'as we talk about throughout this episode) she was missing, for so many years, was a community of like-minded people. Through teaching, she found a deep passion for uplifting others and spreading joy, which lead her to creating and launching her own App. Sav started SWS in March 2020 to help others find confidence in their bodies and balance in their wellness routine. By helping others find this deeper sense of self love she has also lead herself to this beautiful vibrant lifestyle.
