Entrepreneur. Builder of futures. Dreamer in real time.
Kayalin is a few months into building her company full-time, and you can feel the spark in her words. This company is her vision, a women’s health platform designed to connect women with care that feels human, attentive, and trustworthy. Her days are a mix of ideation and execution. Branding. Fundraising. Model testing. Platform building. All the unseen tasks of an early-stage founder who knows she’s creating something that matters.
And yet, her life isn’t only consumed by the grind. She makes room for what sustains her. Long walks in the sun. Time at the beach. Travel. Workouts. Friends and family. The simple joys that remind her she is more than the titles she carries.
A Founder’s Fire
Rumi’s poetry guide her through the momentum of building:
Kayalin lives by these words. They are compass points that remind her to move toward passion, intuition, and purpose, and away from anything that drains her. They are why she honors her younger self’s dreams with a promise: to make good on them, one by one.
If You Found Her at Noon
Right now, Kayalin is working remotely in Costa Rica. At noon, you’d see her reviewing brand identity concepts, building her soon-to-launch website, spooning Pitaya into a bowl, and sitting with gratitude for this new chapter.
Back home in Los Angeles, her midday ritual is sacred. She cooks lunch with fresh ingredients, steps into her backyard, and eats in the sun with no phone nearby. It is nourishment and reset in one. A way to pause, breathe, and center before returning to the work of building a company.
Romanticizing Radical Life Design
Lately, she has been leaning into the idea of Radical Life Design. Asking herself what she would do if there were no limits. It is a practice of honoring the promises made to her younger self and choosing to live in relationship with both the past and the future. Every step forward becomes an act of devotion to that vision.
Her Noon Folder
Scroll through Kayalin’s camera roll and you’d find weekday moments like black tea with oat milk and cinnamon, houseplants stretching toward the light, and afternoons working in Silverlake cafés. Weekends tell another story. Ocean waves at sunset. Dancing in the sand. Sunday brunch and walks around Echo Park Lake with her girlfriends.
Anchors and Soundtracks
Her Notes app holds poems that arrive midday, ideas for building community in Los Angeles, and draft posts waiting for their moment. The mindset she returns to is simple:
It is what grounds her in the uncertainty of entrepreneurship and reminds her that building is a process of daily showing up.
Music flows through everything she does. Tems is her north star, with songs like “Wickedest” on repeat. Doja Cat when she needs a hype-up. Cleo Sol, Lauryn Hill, and Erykah Badu when she wants grounding. Stevie Wonder and Mereba when she’s feeling expansive. Music is part of her presence, and she is often singing or dancing wherever she is.
Where She Feels Most Herself
Lately, that place is at home in Los Angeles. A Monday morning filled with sunlight, after a restorative weekend, walking her neighborhood and feeling deeply herself. Certain of who she is. Proud of the woman she is becoming.
Her Noon Self to Her 9AM Self
Most days, it’s just this: I’m proud of you. Keep going. We got this.
And maybe that’s all we need to hear too.
Kayalin’s story is still being written, but her presence already feels like a reminder. To honor your younger self. To ask bigger questions about the life you are building. To choose rituals that nourish you while you reach for more. Noon, for her, is not a pause. It is a place where vision and gratitude meet, and where the future she imagines for women’s health and for herself begins to take shape.
