In this inspiring episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik chats with entrepreneur and author Kira Hartley Klinger, a powerhouse of resilience, creativity, and motion. From flipping transit buses and running a vintage Etsy shop to self-publishing heartfelt books and battling chronic migraines, Kira shares how staying in motion—mentally and physically—has been her key to navigating anxiety, depression, entrepreneurship, and family life. Whether she’s writing before dawn or hauling hotel doors for a farmhouse renovation, Kira shows that momentum isn't just survival—it's art.

About the Guest:Kira Hartley Klinger is a multi-hyphenate: entrepreneur, Etsy shop owner (DodOddity), author of Fabric Wars and Fabric Wars and More, motivational speaker, and full-time creative. A mother, grandmother, and farmhouse renovator, she has built a unique life driven by curiosity and resourcefulness. Her storytelling, rooted in auctions and vintage finds, has captivated audiences across guilds, podcasts, and now television.

Key Takeaways:

  • Create space for joy: Whether it’s gardening, quilting, or camp with grandkids, rest resets resilience.

  • Don’t wait to feel ready: Entrepreneurship, writing, and healing all demand imperfect, brave action.

  • Community fuels belief: Finding “your people” changes everything—from business to mental health.

  • Creativity heals: Making something with your hands or heart brings purpose and peace.
