WHY KENA EXISTS

Untended, these emotions may shift behaviors, challenge relationships, or cloud your perspective. We've been there too, and you deserve emotional clarity and ease.

Kena will help us navigate to clarity. It is crafted by a founder who's navigated these waves and is done in collaboration with wellness professionals.

So who came up with kena?

A personal journey intended to spark a movement of clarity.

Hi, I’m Loise, the dreamer behind kena. In 2021, I moved to a new country, full of hope for an exciting adventure. Instead, I found myself navigating unfamiliar cultural differences and long work hours in a place far from home, where I knew no one. By 2023, my spark was dimming - help was seriously needed so I opted for therapy as a sounding board and started listening to podcasts on wellness. These two introduced me to key tools like the wheel of feelings, emotional forecasting, journaling - sketches, scribbled notes and coloring helped me visualise my emotions and taught me to see them as guides. My journey from chaos to clarity, lit the spark for kena: an app to help you and I visualize and take the journey from where you are to where you want to be. It’s just an idea, and I’d love your perspective to bring it to life. C’mon join me—join the waitlist, and let’s shape kena together for your emotional clarity!
