Hello Gorgeous,

I was deeply inspired to tap into my inner Frida Kahlo for this year’s Met-inspired vision. Frida Kahlo, a powerful blend of artistry and revolution, represents unapologetic individuality, strength, and the courage to rewrite the narrative. She reminds us that we can embrace our fiery passion while still carrying grace and love into every space we step into.

This February, as part of Twenty Twenty Thrive, I want to inspire women to awaken their inner Frida—to own their power, stand tall in their authenticity, and fearlessly express their truth. Like Frida Kahlo, we all have the ability to ignite change, not only in our lives but in the lives of those we touch.

So, here’s your reminder to step into February with boldness, confidence, and the belief that you are capable of thriving, no matter the season. You are a masterpiece in progress and a revolution in motion.

With love,
Kim-Lee Ricketts

Hello Gorgeous,

It’s #2025! Let’s talk about The Version of .

Here’s the thing: Social media has us thinking that becoming a “new version” of ourselves means waking up flawless, glowing like Beyoncé, and miraculously healed from every bad decision we’ve ever made. Spoiler alert—it doesn’t work that way.

The new version of yourself isn’t about hating the old you or pretending your past didn’t happen. It’s not about becoming someone completely different or waiting for your fairy godmother to swoop in with a magical makeover. (If she hasn’t arrived by now, chances are, she’s not coming.)

Instead, the new version of you is built on peace. It’s about embracing your quirks, flaws, and fabulous imperfections. It’s about saying, “Yes, I have baggage, but it’s designer, and I carry it well!”

Here’s how you step into this version of yourself:
1. Recognize what’s bothering you. Be honest with yourself, but don’t throw a pity party. We’ve all got things we’d like to change.
2. Accept that it exists. This is the part where you stop bullying yourself. Newsflash: Nobody’s perfect, not even that influencer with the perfectly curated feed.
3. Do what you can to address it. Whether it’s hitting the gym, setting boundaries, or finally opening that savings account, take action. And if things don’t change the way you want them to? You’ve already got Step 2 covered—peace over perfection.

This isn’t a fairy tale, gorgeous. It’s your story. And the beauty of it is that you’re both the author and the editor. The new you isn’t about perfection; it’s about progress. It’s about living boldly, loving fiercely, and showing up unapologetically—even when you don’t have it all figured out.

So here’s your permission slip to step into the life you deserve. Not tomorrow, not next year—today. Go ahead and rewrite your story. After all, no one else can play your part better than you.

With love and laughter,
Kim-Lee Ricketts
