Hey there! I'm Sachkia, the creator of WKND Mood, and it's no secret that I'm excited that you're here!
I live on one of the world's most beautiful sets of rocks, the British Virgin Islands. It is as picturesque as you can imagine a Caribbean island paradise - turquoise blue waters that kiss white sandy beaches, verdant green hills, summer weather all year round, and a small community that greets one another with a loud good morning, afternoon, or evening whenever we pass each other.
Paradise also has a very active hurricane season from June to November each year. In September 2017, we experienced what was, at that time, the worst hurricane in recorded history. In less than six hours, those verdant hills turned into a devastating brown as trees bowed and broke against unbelievable winds. At the end of it, the belongings and lives of residents littered the islands. While we quickly cleaned up, our collective belongings burned in the open air for months!
From that experience, I sought to live a life that was more in harmony with the earth, and I began to question some of my purchasing habits and attitude towards all of the things I had acquired and the life I was living. I Marie Kondoed my home and realized how my personal choices affected the earth and my opportunity to be aligned and truly live out loud my values.
WKND Mood is here to introduce the beauty and sustainability of linen loungewear to women wishing to make more conscious decisions about shopping and the effects of our stuff on the planet. I love what I'm building with this brand and am driven by a strong ‘why’. So what is our why? It's simple to help women slow down and reconnect with themselves and the earth through leisurely living every day. I believe that connection and alignment from within are powerful in designing the life of your dreams and ensuring a less hostile planet for us and our children.
It's just that simple for me. I'm thrilled that you are interested in WKND. I hope that we can inspire you to enjoy leisurely living every day.
