In this episode, Kayla talks about the lack of diversity within the health and wellness space and how the conversation can be shifted to a more inclusive space overall.  

As Kayla was working through fixing her larger health issues, she noticed that the information was majorly targeted towards a particular group of people who didn’t represent her. She wanted more information that spoke to her as a woman of color and more representation in the space as she was limited to seeing very few people of color within the influencer space. Rather than trying to look for more people that represented her, she decided to speak up and start on her own path to speaking up for those who feel underrepresented She vowed to provide more information to those people who need more information tailored to them.
