About Us
Thank you so much for wanting to know more about Who & What is behind Kokokini!
My name Bridget, I’m a 38 year old mother of two boys based in beautiful Queensland, Australia.
Kokokini was born off the back of a women that was broken, broken within her mental health, broken with her body image & broken with her self-worth.
All my adult life had been spent working in an industry that was hardened to creativeness.
Your success indicator was how much time you spent working & how much you sacrificed for the good of the business. After 16 years in the Finance industry, clawing my way through a male dominated & intensely stressful industry, proving my worth to people that ultimately didn’t matter. I was burnt out; my nervous system was at the peak of its malfunction.
I HAD TO TAKE BACK MY LIFE; I scaled back my business to accommodate a better work life balance. I ate better, I exercised, I took holidays, I spent time with my family, I completed some lifelong goals & ticked off some bucket list items!!
As women we are so accustomed to be everything to everyone, I never realised how little I did for myself. I never gave myself the opportunity to feel self-love or truly value myself. I learnt & am still learning so many lessons about what it means to be me & how to embrace my flaws, how changing my mindset can ultimately change my life.
This brand is so much more than a product, its very identity was built of the realisation that so many women suffer this same way & we, as a society need to change the narrative.
When I created Kokokini I focused not only providing high quality sustainable product, but my predominant focus was to get women back EXPERIENCING LIFE! I lost 51kilos in my self-love journey & I realised how many years of memories I had lost all because I didn’t have the confidence to wear swimwear!
I don’t want to see any women go through what I did..
I’ve made it my personal mission to help create a platform & product which everyday women can feel comfortable, confident & empowered in their bodies.
I want to change the narrative, the way we speak to ourselves, the way we value or selves & also how we base our value from our appearance.
I am so thankful you have wanted to find out more about me & my passion.
I want to know more about you too so please take the time to connect with me!
Love,
Bridge xxx
