My guest this episode is Khnuma Simmonds, Founder and Visionary of the Girlfriendism Brand. 

Khnuma is a full time mom-preneur to two sons, a doctoral candidate in the process of completing her PhD in Advanced Studies in Human Behavior, and an advocate for survivors of domestic violence. 

Khnuma owns and operates six unique businesses under the Girlfriendism umbrella with the overall purpose of empowering women through the areas of fashion, fitness, wellness, business, philanthropy and most recently, travel! Since 2011, her humble island business that was inspired by the women of St. Croix, USVI, has grown into a global movement for women all over the world.

In this episode, Khnuma and I discuss what it means to be living in your purpose,  the important distinction between Doing versus being, how she defines success, why rest is essential to creativity and clarity, breaking generational cycles, and living an examined life.
