On today's episode I interview Kelly Hodgkin, a Dubai-based entrepreneur, mentor, investor, company director, and brand ambassador, as she shares her remarkable story of triumph over childhood adversity. Based in Dubai for the past 15 years, Kelly is the founder and CEO of KMH Events, a full-service events and promotions agency, and a seasoned business mentor empowering entrepreneurs to unlock their potential. On this episode, Kelly candidly discusses overcoming challenges in early childhood, revealing how those experiences instilled a fierce sense of independence and an unwavering drive. Her mantra, "Stay focused on yourself, your goals, and your vision; the rest will fall into place," echoes her belief in the power of attitude. As an investor, Kelly thrives on supporting dynamic lifestyle brands, including Gym Clothing Co., a UAE fitness brand she champions for its commitment to quality, style, durability, and value.  Follow Kelly on:  https://www.instagram.com/kellymariehodgkin?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Special thank you to https://www.instagram.com/wear.that.now?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== and https://www.instagram.com/sort_it_dubai?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==  for elevating my on-camera presence with impeccable style, helping me look my best in each episode of ‘They Say It Takes A Village’ podcast.
