Running a business can feel like a never-ending juggle—creativity, sales, sustainability, social media, sourcing, admin… and somewhere in there, we’re supposed to feel inspired and aligned with enough time to squeeze in 8 hours of sleep and our RDI of spinach.
But what happens when we don’t? What happens when the joy gets lost in all the doing of running a business? What happens when the pressure to keep up overshadows the purpose that started it all?
If you’ve ever felt like that—exhausted, unsure, or like you're running on empty—you’re not alone. And you don’t have to push through it alone, either.
This week inside the Slow Fashion Lab, we’re slowing right down with the incredible Karishma Kasabia, founder of the size-inclusive ethical label Khòlò—a brand known for its unapologetically bold, joyful designs and its unwavering commitment to doing things differently, in every sense of the word.
Karishma didn’t just build Khòlò—she breathed life into it. She poured her energy, her values, and her whole heart into her business. And like so many of us in the fashion-for-good space, she burned out. But instead of ignoring the signs and 'hustling harder,' Karishma made a radical choice.
She paused. She recalibrated. She chose a new way of doing business—one rooted in gentleness, in wellbeing, in deep alignment with who she is and how she wants to live.
In this intimate and soul-nourishing masterclass, Karishma is opening up about what that shift really looked like. The highs. The hard moments. And the healing. And our Slow Fashion Lab members have access to the LIVE call and the lifetime replay.
Karishma will be sharing...
-
Why your business model doesn’t need to look like anyone else’s—and why embracing your own path is your greatest strength.
-
The three mindset shifts that helped her fall back in love with business (and with herself in the process).
-
How to tune into joy, not just revenue, and design a business that truly feels like yours—one that supports your spirit, not just your bank account.
This session is a breath of fresh air—a mix of practical wisdom and soulful reflection. A permission slip to slow down. To remember your why. To realise that your worth isn’t tied to your output, and your business doesn’t need to break you to be successful.
And because we believe in real, raw conversations, you’ll also have the chance to ask Karishma anything during our live Q&A session at the end. Whether you want to talk burnout recovery, marketing strategy, design decisions or the messy magic of building a brand from scratch—nothing is off the table.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, stretched, or secretly craving more alignment in your business journey, this is your sign.
We’re here for the makers, the dreamers, the doers who want to build something beautiful and sustainable. Something that gives more than it takes.
Come and join us inside the Slow Fashion Lab for more, and let Karishma remind you that you’re not alone—and that there is another way.
