The majority of my projects were pushed back and put on hold due to the pandemic. When CKD’s first rug capsule collection with CB2 launched in 2020 I remember feeling like things were moving fast. There was so much lined up with so much to do - and then all of a sudden the whole world stopped. Over the last two years I’ve been slowly building CKD the brand. Putting in the hours and keeping up with a routine on the days that felt slow and quiet. All of the projects that were put on pause are finally ready to open. Things are starting to feel like they did this time two years ago, but I feel more centred and ready. I’ve built a strong foundation, joined a showroom for all of my top selling prints (more of that to come), and I love what CKD has organically evolved into. Most importantly I cut out the time and space to get to know myself better. This process is humbling and uncomfortable - but I’ve gained so much, and learned things about myself that have only helped me better believe in myself. There is nothing more liberating than deciding something for yourself by yourself. Entering 2022 with a clear and calm mind has been one of the most beautiful feelings. I feel mentally prepared for the next phase in my life. Excited for what is next!!
