In this episode, Cheryl Knowlton and Kim Johnson discuss:

• Intentional living and meaningful connection

• The Darling Day concept and Darling Dinners

• The 54321 capsule wardrobe method

• Authenticity and personal style

• Balancing personal and professional life

Key Takeaways:

• Cultivating a "Darling Day" where intention meets beauty can transform daily life, and by being present and creating meaningful moments, women can rediscover their purpose and confidence, empowering them to show up authentically and make a greater impact.

• Kim's 54321 method provides a practical framework for building a versatile, mix-and-match wardrobe.

• Embracing authenticity, rather than trying to fit someone else's mold, empowers women to feel beautiful and confident in their own skin.

• The Darling Dinners create a space for women to share their stories, gain new perspectives, and strengthen relationships.

• Navigating the "what's next" phase of life can feel daunting, but Kim encourages women to start small, try new things, and approach it with joy, unlearning old patterns, and being willing to explore opens the door to personal growth and fulfillment.

“Time is a gift, and you have to decide how you're going to unwrap it each and every day for yourself.”

About the guest, Kim Johnson:

Kim Johnson is the founder of The Darling Day, a brand born from her journey of transformation and rediscovery. After years of dedicating herself to family life—raising her children and creating cherished memories—she found herself at a crossroads when her nest became empty. With newfound freedom, she faced the challenge of redefining her purpose and seeking a deeper connection with other women navigating similar transitions.

For years, she embraced the roles of mother, friend, and wife, but stepping into this new season became an opportunity to explore beauty, meaning, and intentional living. With a passion for gathering people, curating beautiful spaces, and expressing herself through style, Kim created The Darling Day to inspire women to build lives filled with grace and warmth. Through this brand, she fosters a supportive community that celebrates milestones, embraces imperfections, and uplifts one another with kindness.
