Here at kikki.K, our purpose is to inspire and empower you to live your best life every day – and we believe in inspiring you to dream, do, enjoy and share to help you achieve that.
Whether it be our travel tips, our favourite podcasts, or in today’s case our favourite reads, we think sharing is a pretty great way to help you learn, grow and continue to inspire you to live a life you love.
So today, in celebration of World Book Day, we wanted to share with you our favourite books from some of our most inspiring guests on Kristina Karlsson’s ‘Your Dream Life’ Podcast:
