Luxury Is a Mindset: How I Found True Joy After Modeling

“She must only like expensive things”

I get it all the time

Just because I’m an ex-model

People assume I’m all about designer bags, fancy dinners, luxury vacations

But honestly?? What I really love is much simpler than that!

Give me a quiet morning, sitting with my cats, a good cup of orange peel tea

Experiences are my idea of luxury

Because it’s not the price tag that matters to me

It’s the feeling something brings to my life

The comfort, calm, moments that make me feel grounded

Like, I used to think happiness was tied to all things I didn’t have

Latest skincare

Best outfits

“Must-have” beauty products that came with the highest price

But after years in the modeling industry, I’ve learned it’s little things that bring me joy

And these little things also help me AGE BACKWARDS:

1. Walks with my dog in nature

2. Cooking 4 small meals per day at home

3. Listening to Genki System™️ music [Comment “GENKI” for info! ❤️]

[What are your favorite luxuries of life? Comment below, I’d love to know! 👇]

Best things in life are the things that’ll bring you peace, alignment, + joy

And they’ll make you feel like you’re being truly yourself

It took me years to realize all the material things the world chases after are distractions from what really matters

[Don’t get me wrong, I still love to stay in amazing hotels from time to time, but I’m not as obsessed about these things as when I was younger!]

So next time someone assumes I only like “expensive” things

I’ll just smile

Because I know the real secret is that luxury is a MINDSET

And it’s available to any woman who chooses it

You don’t have to spend thousands to live well

You just need to invest in what makes your soul happy

Ready to stop chasing + start living?

Love, Kelly

About Kelly Prehn

Kelly's journey began unexpectedly when a Models 1 agent spotted her in Covent Garden during a ballet rehearsal. Despite landing a six-figure Japanese contract immediately, upon arrival in Tokyo she was deemed 'overweight', fired and sent back to London.

Her breakthrough came when Mr. Shu of Shu Uemura recognized her potential, launching her acclaimed career as a beauty and fashion model across Asia—from Japan and Korea to China and Singapore.

Leveraging her industry expertise, Kelly transitioned from modeling to sharing beauty insights as a columnist, becoming a highly recognized advocate for niche traditional wellness and healing modalities. She was the first to bring these transformative practices to a wider audience. Her influence grows rapidly: 1.4 million books in print, tens of millions of women reached through her teachings on social media, she currently impacts 11 million women monthly—and growing.
