To give and receive...

thanks!

A moment of gratitude goes a long way

On this day, let us take the time to slow down and show appreciation to the people in our lives, the multitude of things that we have to be grateful for, and the time we have to enjoy all of them. I am so grateful to each and every one of you for showing up each and every day as your best selves, for continuing to do the work, and for trying each and every day to make your dreams come true. We are all in this together and by going after what you want, you inspire others to do the same. Thank you for all the love and support, not to mention the incredible amount of joy each of you brings to the table. This year, as a token of my appreciation, I am offering 'pay what you can for sessions' through the end of the year. If you have been wanting to schedule a session, and money has been holding you back, you now no longer have that burden. I consider myself a servant leader and my gift to you is my time, energy, and service. Please take advantage or share with anyone who is needing a listening ear, shoulder to cry on, or a start in a new direction. When you help yourself, you help others too. Let me help you to simply love you...

TAOS Emblem

After 14 years of having my business, I finally have a logo. Please take a moment to sit with this image and see how it makes you feel. It was designed with so much love and gratitude, and I am so excited to share it with you! This is why I also made into a wearable piece- I call it a fascinator, because it is fascinating and is meant to fasten your clothes together in such a way. Find yourself wearing it all the time to accent your outfit no matter what you are wearing. Put it on your bag or scarf or coat before you walk out the door and feel the vibrations of love. Get one for you and a friend, or just get all three- they come in black, silver, and gold. A perfect gift for anyone and can be worn in any direction you choose. Make it your own. TAOS is always evolving, ever changing, as we all are a work of art. A symbol of strength, timelessness, embracing the masculine and the feminine, the beginning and the end, all encompassed in one stunning symbol. Find yourself.

Black Friday Special- Sign up for the Transformative Experience now before it's too late!|

If you have been thinking about coming to the Transformative Experience on the sea with me next summer, now is the time! For all of you Gods and Goddesses out there, please join me for seven days on the Royal Clipper, while we set sail from Venice, Italy, throughout Croatia and Montenegro from July 12th-19th. These days are designed to restore your mind, body, and soul, all while discovering the world and yourself, with others. Grab your friends and family and invest in yourself. At about $2,500 per person (if 3 of you share a cabin), this should be a no brainer. Pay $500 a month for the next five months, and get ready for transformation! We will start each day with meditation and yoga, focusing on a different chakra each day. We will talk about your strengths, find out where you came from, where you are now, and where you want to go. We will do inner child work and shadow work, including a breathwork session, then consciously create the life of your dreams, by assessing the life you are currently living. Then we will eat delicious food, have experiences we have never had before, make memories, laugh, dance, cry, heal, and share our vulnerabilities in order to learn and grow. This is about evolution and taking yourself to the next level and truly embracing all that you are. This is an adventure of a lifetime, for the soul and truth seekers, for those who want more out of life. The deadline to sign up is December 15th (right around the corner), and is hosted by Divine Tours. Lastly, as a special incentive, they are offering a $100 credit to use on board, in addition to an extra $250 if you sign up by Friday night. You must email [email protected] to confirm all the details and secure your space. Will you be one?

Intimate Conversations with Lady Kendra

Join me every Monday at 9pm CET on Instagram Live as I talk about life and such. This is my way to have a conversation with the world about some subjects that may be taboo or touchy. For me, there is no such thing. Please feel free to leave a comment or ask a question. This week I talked about non violence, as Monday was 'Non Violenza Sulle Donne' in Italy. A day where we talk about liberation of women all over the world, and the violence that ends in a woman's death, at the hands of violent men. Let us be done with the violence already. No one wants to be at war, so why do we constantly find ourselves in one? It's time for a revolution. It is time for a change. It is time we put a stop to this senseless act of violence. It is time we start uplifting each other. We have so much to be grateful for, let's not take it for granted. Join us and become a member of The Substitute Society. Join the silent revolution of peace and love. Be a part of the conversation in person from 7-9pm at The Art of Style or just tune in when you have the time and follow the journey @kendraleonard... Indulge in yourself.

Mindfulness and Movement

I also invite you to join me every Wednesday morning from 9-11 am as I share my mediation and yoga practice with the community. This is a safe space where all are welcome. No experience is required. Each month I shift the focus to a different chakra so we can not only align them, but our bodies as well. The seven main chakras play a role in the flow of energy in your body, as they all correspond to specific nerve bundles and organs. When one or more of your chakras becomes blocked or unbalanced, it can impact your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. For November, the focus is on the third eye chakra, which helps us make sense of the world by connecting the dots between what we see externally and what we understand internally. It is our inner teacher, the source of intuition that leads us toward clarity and meaning in our everyday experiences. The third eye refers to the gate that leads to the inner realms and spaces of higher consciousness, and symbolizes a state of enlightenment. Come with an open heart and mind, and feel your body unwind. Love yourself.

I give you my first book, you only live once. how 'i tell everyone i lived life backwards. pregnant at twenty, widowed at thirty, wondering what's in store for forty, but here is where I am now...' this takes you on a little journey of life, death, and rebirth.

My second book, mind.body,soul., talks about my journey of being single and learning to put myself first. Purchase a copy for anyone you know who needs to take better care of themselves.
