Kayla Joy Staples

​

I'm originally from Tucson, Arizona. I’m an explorer at heart, always looking for adventure, magic and treasures around every cactus and corner. After graduating from UCLA, I officially made the move from one “endless summer” state to the next----minus the saguaros, add the ocean. Los Angeles became my home away from home and I have called myself to be a beach bummin', sunshine lovin', California girl for the last decade.

​

I am a reader, a dreamer, a nomadic wandering gypsy, with a zest for life, inspiring + teaching others, while trying to have some fun on this playground called earth. Right now, I am on my personal pursuit of happy-ness, which for me, means following my heart, my flow, and truly living life for a living. In order to do this, I had to put the fear of fitting into the box behind me, and instead jump into the unknown----taking chances, dreaming big, asking tough questions, and looking for new answers.

 

As a result, I have been exposed to a vast amount of knowledge, experiences, and people that I wouldn't have otherwise encountered. I have seen what a small, connected world we live in, and how important it is to give back. I have become more clear on who I am and what my passions and purpose are. I am at a very exciting time on this journey called "life" and I am looking forward to seeing where this next road will lead me.

“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.”
