Do you wish to empower others through positivity and encouragement?
In this episode, host Christy Pennison welcomes guest Kimberly Wilkerson, founder of the Token Clothing Company, to share her journey of empowering others and combatting negative self-talk.
Kimberly’s passion for fashion started almost two decades ago, even though she lacked drawing skills. Undeterred, she took art classes and practiced fashion design while working as a speech language pathologist. In 2017, she launched an online t-shirt company to gain business acumen and experience in the fashion industry.
In 2021, the timing was right, and Kimberly fully launched her fashion company, starting with a line of empowering pajamas. She wanted to fuse language with fashion, recognizing the power of words and stories to uplift and inspire others. With her clothing line, Kimberly aims to give people permission and courage to be brave and start believing in themselves.
During the episode, Kimberly and Christy discuss the importance of tapping into a higher power and trusting the right timing to pursue dreams. They also delve into the setbacks and hardships of entrepreneurship, highlighting the power of vision and purpose in staying focused.
The conversation also explores the impact of the Token Clothing Company’s empowering pajamas on individuals. They discuss the unique messaging on the pajamas and how it brings empowerment to women. Kimberly shares her Pay It Forward With Pajamas initiative, which allows customers to gift pajamas with empowering statements to women in need. In addition, personal notes of encouragement can be added, creating a powerful connection.
Kimberly’s research on powerful affirmations for women led her to launch a pajama line called “Pajamas with Purpose,” featuring affirmations such as “I am beautiful,” “I am worthy,” and “I am loved.” These words are designed to impact the wearer’s mental state and how they perceive themselves.
Because I have learned over multiple years that despite the goals, despite the dreams, despite everything, my happiest moments are when I’m helping someone else. That is what makes life worth living.
