4th July ๐ŸŽ‰ Being in the U.S. for my startup  @kleohealth was a manifestation of mine finally arriving ๐Ÿ˜. The 4th July symbolises freedom, democracy, and the founding of deals in the U.S. so I feel this really marks the significance of what @kleohealth is growing on an international level ๐ŸŽ‰. Weโ€™re going to improve health management across the world, but this was such a true โ€œstars alignmentโ€ moment.๐Ÿ˜ A reminder to dream big, pray hard and work hard ๐Ÿฅฐ #girlpower #femalefounder taken in DUMBO, Brooklyn by @annainsam

Real talk: the little things are the big things. ๐Ÿ’™
As my world gets busier and my little business becomes more complex and the stakes a little higher, things get more stressful and the expectations edge a little higher. Add planning a wedding and other life things, and thatโ€™s a lot on a plate! I realised I was spinning for a bit and almost lost sight of how *these* are the moments to treasure and be grateful for. There are blessings everywhere in every second of this reel. ๐Ÿ˜ Hereโ€™s your reminder to enjoy the journey, not just the destination โœจ by @annainsam

The breakthrough I needed did not come from tech. It came from art. ๐ŸŽจ

Not a strategy session.
Not a pitch.
A studio visit.

Earlier this week I joined an intimate studio visit with South African ceramicist Michael Chandler in Bo-Kaap: ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

I went intentionally.
To expand my creative flow for my business.

New spaces.
New perspectives.
New people.
New industries.

And it gave me my creative mojo back โœจ

We often box creativity into โ€œartโ€.
But building a startup is deeply creative work.

I assumed we would be worlds apart.
Artist vs tech founder.

But the parallels were undeniable.

I deal with Apple delays and SDK blockers ๐Ÿ“ฑ

He deals with cracked plates from the kiln ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ 

I iterate product.
He experiments with glaze and form.

I rethink pricing models.
He adapts revenue streams around exhibitions and commissions.

Different materials.
Same resilience.

And then a detail I loved ๐Ÿ’™

His colour of choice is blue.
Think Greece. Think energy. Think depth.

Blue has always been central to our brand identity at @kleohealth . ๐Ÿ’™

Strong. Trustworthy. Expansive.

It reminded me why I chose it in the first place.

Stepping away from the day to day is not indulgent.

It is strategic.

Sometimes you do not need more productivity.

You need a new room and environment.

This Valentineโ€™s, love yourself more ๐Ÿ’Œ
In quiet ways.
In consistent ways.
In ways that protect your mental health.
In ways that nourish your mind, body, and soul.
In ways that truly fill your cup.
Choose yourself. Again and again. ๐Ÿ’™ by @annainsam

Same body. Different way of managing it. 

Before starting Kleo I had no way to manage my annual health or appointments. Now, 6 months of using @kleohealth and Iโ€™ve honestly never been healthier.

Not because I ignored my health before.
But because I became an active participant in my health journey, beyond just healthy food, exercise and booking health visits last minute and not really knowing how to get the most value in those visits. 

In the last 6 months, I intentionally stayed on top of my important appointments, some of which were: 

โ€ข Full hormone blood tests, to check fertility 

โ€ข Eye test! Making sure eye pressure is normal and healthy 

โ€ข Skin treatments that treated my melasma and skin barrier 

โ€ข A proactive yearly GP check-in 

โ€ข Oral hygienist visits (twice) because gum health directly affects the rest of your body and fertility health. 

โ€ข Wellness appointments like massages to slow done and come back to myself. 

*And many more. 

I used Kleo to jot down notes for my questions for my doctors, and to help me remember I had an appt that day. 

I created a full health history in my own words on Kleo. I now can easily tell doctors, without having to remember it all in my head where Iโ€™m always unsure of the details. 

Itโ€™s been awareness, follow-through, and honestly just a sh*t ton easier. 

And the shift is real:

No unknowns.
A body that feels managed, not reactive.
A mind that feels empowered,  not overwhelmed. 

This is what health looks and feels like when youโ€™re informed, prepared, and involved. ๐Ÿปโœจ And yes, it will be on app stores soon! ๐Ÿ”œ by @annainsam
