"I've used my ColorEssence to create an authentic voice in my writing, to create a brand that is in perfect alignment with who I am, a memorable stage presence and more!"
“My journey towards becoming a Million Dollar Marketing Coach began by having my ColorEssence palette done with Kailash!
Having it has allowed me to step into my femininity in such a powerful, confident way that I feel unstoppable.
I'm convinced I wouldn't be where I am now - with a multi-million dollar, a beautiful home that echoes my personal style, and being surrounded by people who 'get' who I am — if it wasn't for having my ColorEssence Experience with Kailash!"

"Kailash's work is really incredible. For me it was about my internal energy being congruent with my external colors, energy and style."
“The work I did with Kailash was an extra special surprise. I had no clue how it would impact me, my business and my brand. Her work is really incredible. For me it was about my internal energy being congruent with my external colors, energy and style.
It was so bizarre to watch the impact and transformation of seeing how the right colors, clothing, style, textures; all of it, serve to complement and align what’s going on ‘inside’.
Totally amazing!
And then to be able to discover how I can authentically blend them into my brand and the work I do with my clients, has given me an even greater sense of being ‘home’, as well as joy, aliveness, permission and an even greater boldness in my business and my work with clients.
It was very cool.
For those of you who may wonder what color, style and energy may have to do with branding and your business — trust me — it’s all part of being authentic and showing up so that you can lead the business you want, from your heart, from your soul and from your passion."

"As a practical business woman, it is clear to me that I will be saving huge amounts of money from what I received from Kailash!"
"Giving myself the gift of the ‘ColorEssence Experience’ with Kailash, was a gift of ‘being with’ a Master. Her many years of honed expertise combined with her clarity of only seeing me in my beauty, has empowered me on many levels for the rest of my life. The subtleties in all of her competent ways taught me in two days how to recognize and own how the Divine Feminine expresses as me.
Yes, this was an investment, yes, I said YES! to all of this because I "knew" I had expanded to the capacity of deserving this. As a practical business woman, it is clear to me that I will be saving huge amounts of money from what I received from Kailash. There will no longer be spending on items that are ‘beautiful’ but aren't my unique expression of energy or project the image I believe I want to project. In the past two years I would've doubled my savings from purchasing mis-directed items compared to the investment I made w/Kailash. I wish I hadn't waited those two years!
What I'd like others to realize is, Kailash is a rare jewel.
Do NOT wait to avail yourself of her offering. There is no one who comes close to her level of mastery and what she can give and teach you. Decide to empower all of who and what you are! Saying YES! to wearing your own beautiful feathers!"

"For the first time in my life, how I look on the outside and how I feel on the inside, match! "
I love my 'feathers' and I'm so excited now to get dressed up and show myself to the world. I appreciate and am grateful to Kailash for helping me sparkle with joy...it's pure magic!"
Kailash’s brilliance is her ability to be a powerful illuminator; she helped me to blossom into my own beauty and to really recongnize my authentic presence. Through her careful analysis of my shape, colors, textures and personality, she crafted a look and wardrobe for me that makes me feel powerful AND joyful as soon as I get dressed.
Everyone wants to been “seen” for who they really are and no one does that better than Kailash Sozzani. I highly recommend her services – you will NOT be disappointed!

"What an incredible experience - I left with so much more than I ever expected! Who knows what possibilities await? But for sure I am ready for them now!!"
"It has been a year of change for me, and Kailash and the ColorEssence Experience are truly a highlight in my personal and business journey.
I realized a couple of years ago that after leaving the corporate world I had lost my sense of style, of how I wanted to look. My lifestyle of working from home as an internet marketing writer contributed to becoming further out of touch with just what my style was about. I struggled buying clothes that didn't fit, mis-matched things in colors I wasn't sure of, and having my hair colored so much it was becoming further and further from the real me. So when I learned of Kailash and ColorEssence, I jumped at the chance.
But here's the thing. I learned more with Kailash than color, hair and make up. She helped me get in touch with and express the me that was just waiting to burst out, so that how I look and the person I am are congruent. More importantly, I learned how much confidence in my style, congruence with my spirit and being at my best can effect all the other aspects of my life, including my business. With more confidence I am better able to communicate with potential clients, colleagues and even do a live presentation!
When I signed up for Kailash's program, I had hoped it would be a motivator to lose some of the weight I had acquired over the past decade. An injury derailed that effort. But after working with her for two days and seeing myself through different eyes, I am even now more motivated to attack my weight issue in the same holistic way that Kailash has introduced me to, and I have signed up for a nine month weight loss coach.
What an incredible experience - I left with so much more than I ever expected! Who knows what possibilities await? But for sure I am ready for them now!"

"I want to thank you SO much for our time together.
I feel 80% transformed and am watching my thoughts every day to help midwife the rest of my transformation when my mind wants to slip into doubt and fear.
Through working with you something has shifted that has been really cool- Absolutely effortlessly the situations that used to make me feel guilt and shame don't affect me anymore. It is so nice to live without that burden :)
Not only did I have a relationship breakthrough- I had a money breakthrough as well...using the mantra we discussed 'relax, have fun, and be yourself'."

"I spent two days with Kailash Sozzani — an amazing, highly intuitive, heart-centered woman. She is gifted in identifying what “colors” bring out your authentic personality and in coaching around any resistances that come up when you “step into who
you are really are"
I completely saw how the clothes she put me in (which also had the flare and uniqueness of pieces that I like) felt really good to wear. However, I was resistant to the “be who you are all the time”- which for me, meant I could wear my leopard heels not only for a night in Manhattan but also for a DAY event (!). I resisted because I have always felt I needed to minimize who I really am in the day time.
There are all kinds of reasons we shrink ourselves- perceived social norms (who wears leopard heels in the DAY? Crazy people?:), not wanting to step into our power, not wanting to outshine others, and so on.
And the point is, as I have learned from Kailash - we need to be ourselves, all the time, no matter what! The alignment that comes from full authenticity is an essential piece of being able to command higher fees and charge what you are worth.
This fresh perspective will stay with me forever. And it feels GREAT not to have to pretend anymore."

"Now I feel more authentic, more confident and more willing to say YES to myself in all parts of my life. Which is good for me personally, and good for my business."
Prior to working with Kailash, I had a good idea about what colors to wear and I was a pretty savvy dresser. What I learned from her took my knowledge to an entirely new level.
I came to Kailash on the heels of achieving a new level of professional success in my business. Hiring her was a big bold gesture of saying YES to myself and in celebration of what I accomplished. And, I wanted to be sure that the way I dressed was an authentic match to my solo-preneur brand, my message and my own style.
Not only did she give me new ideas about what to wear, she taught me how certain colors (that I had never thought to wear before) could help me get my message across and create a deeper connection with others. So now I know what to wear when I’m on stage, what colors to wear with my private client retreats and more! How cool is that!?
And it’s worth mentioning, Kailash saw things in me that I had long forgotten and she encouraged me to let those parts of me shine through my clothing choices. I left the “Kailash experience” feeling that it’s okay to look fabulous and that dressing to make others more comfortable about my presence was not the best use of my energy. (Which I had been doing most of my life!)
Now I feel more authentic, more confident and more willing to say YES to myself in all parts of my life. Which is good for me personally, and good for my business.

"My experience with Kailash was more than I expected. It’s changed everything about my life, from the way I am developing my business,
to the way I’m going about
every aspect of my life."
When I made the decision to work with Kailash, I was at a place in my life where I knew that I needed to rethink my wardrobe and my outer expression of myself. I was ready to step out more publically with my business and felt that my personal appearance definitely needed to align with the changes I was making internally.
For years -- decades really -- I had been operating under the assumption that I was a “Winter” color palette, and consequently I wore a lot of black, white, and bright, intense colors. I had become increasingly aware that these colors did not really look that good on me, but I was not sure what needed to change. My Winter persona had become such a part of me that it was hard to imagine what other colors would suit me.
So off I went to see Kailash; excited to experience her color wizardry.
WOW! Had I known then what I know now! Discovering my best colors was just the beginning of the unveiling of the real me. The magic of the ColorEssence Experience with Kailash lies in the word “Essence.”
Kailash is undoubtedly a master at selecting colors that highlight the best of you, but her most special gift is the way she sees straight to the heart of your energetic essence.
What an extraordinary opportunity it is to have someone draw out the spirit of your true personality and then help you express that through colors, style, shape, texture, hair, makeup, and jewelry.
It is hard to describe how it feels when you stand before the mirror for the first time with your new “feathers,” with the light of your soul shining through. My experience left me feeling as though the butterfly within had been released at last!
I cannot recommend more highly the ColorEssence Experience with Kailash. It is a very personal, intimate, and deeply affirming experience that will change forever the way you see yourself in the world.

"I found the real me!"
Coming to Kailash, I was excited and a little scared, but mostly, I wanted to find the real me.
I did find the real me!
I discovered so many things about myself; that it’s okay to be pretty and fun. It’s okay to do nice things for myself and not always be ‘at the back of the line’.
I used to think that I had to look ‘solid’. Now I look like a china doll and I love how I look and feel!
I wore one of the outfits we bought together to work and someone asked me who I was dressing up for. At first I felt guilty for being dressed so nicely. Then I realized I was dressing for me... as I’m worth it!"

on my brand/website which was greatly influenced by you..."
Working with you was really the “icing on the cake” for my business image. Already in just these few short months since our work together I can see the difference it makes in my entire world, not just my closet.
I was presenting my new product at an event and before I opened my mouth the audience said, “She even matches her product!”
I replied that it was no accident. I dress to my brand based on working with Kailash Sozzani. ‘ I thought it was a luxury to work with you and now I know that it would be a bargain at 3 times the price!’

"It’s really about bringing out the spirit of the person and making that come out in beautiful colors and energy and feeling so much more me."
“I got to spend a full day with Kailash just focused on me, which is a gift in and of itself.
I really didn’t know what to expect in getting my ColorEssence palette done. I thought it would be fun, and it was fun. But it was so much more that that.
It started with a morning of what really ended up bringing about my spirit and energy and my ‘Firecrackedness’. That came out through the colors and when we went shopping it just got better and better.
I want to say that it’s so not about the clothes. It’s really about bringing out the spirit of the person and making that come out in beautiful colors and energy and feeling so much more me.
I can’t thank you enough. It was a fabulous experience."

"Most of all, I felt free. Free from trying to be something or someone I could almost pull off, but which I wasn’t completely me. I felt freed from being “professional.” Free from being serious. Free from trying to be elegant when it doesn’t come naturally. ."
I don’t think I’ve felt consistently great about how I look and how I dress for years. The last time I really felt sharp was in my 20s, after a makeover at the Metamorphosis salon in New York transformed me from a somewhat rumpled and disheveled college grad into a more sleek professional woman. They told me I was a Winter and that I should dress in classic styles with edgy details. Which I did with what I thought were decent results.
Fast forward to June of this year where I met Kailash and her daughter Kendall at an event we were attending, and they suggested, maybe (just maybe), it was time for an update.
In July, I headed to Tucson to work with Kailash, in hopes of developing what I think of as “my Superstar Presence.” The first thing I said to her was “Well, the only real disaster would be if you told me I wasn’t a Winter!”
As we talked through the morning, I insisted I related more to the Winter essence, serious, quiet, deep, dramatic. But Kailash kept seeing someone else peeking through, someone playful and impish, full of laughter and movement. She said the palette would tell us what season I really was. The upshot? I am NOT a Winter, I’m a ‘Jubilant Spring’. For style, Kailash recommend I avoid anything too traditional, too serious, too severe. That my clothes be playful, creative, and full of movement.
And then we went shopping! As much fun as it was to shop, some of Kailash’s suggestions were challenging to say the least. I’d try something on and think “oh, this isn’t me” and Kailash would say “I think it’s fabulous!” She pulled things for me to try I’d never have considered before. She pulled shirts with ruffles. Ruffles! She encouraged me to buy a sheer multi-colored long sleeved blouse with crocheted cuffs and neckline. She encouraged me to buy another top splashed with flowers.
Day two we began with hair and make up. In the afternoon, Kailash pulled jewelry from her collection, and we started to put new outfits together using the clothes I’d brought and my new purchases.
The next day the first live meeting of the group I was co- leading began, so I had a chance to immediately try out my new look. The women there had met me before at the June event, and what I heard again and again was “You don’t look like the same person!” I could just feel a difference in how people were responding to me. They seemed to come closer, feel safer, open up more quickly.
I’d insisted to Kailash that I was never the life of the party, but there I was on Saturday night at the hotel bar, regaling a group with my stories. During the weekend when we did some movement and writing work, I set the room laughing with jokes about connecting with “the language of your crotch.” Who is this woman? Not shy, quiet, serious me!
Most of all, I felt free. Free from trying to be something or someone I could almost pull off, but which I wasn’t completely me. I felt freed from being “professional.” Free from being serious. Free from trying to be elegant when it doesn’t come naturally. From being cool and distant. Free to be messy, and wild. And I felt even more reinforcement of the messages I’ve been getting from my Mastermind group: to lighten up, to warm up, to play more, to dance more.
I am falling back in love with how I look, even if I’m not a beauty by conventional measures. I like my green eyes, my chubby cheeks, my smile, and my lips. I like the curve of my waist and hips, my muscular legs. Now, even if I’m just in jeans and T-shirt, I feel good.
Was it worth it? Even if I can’t measure it, I wouldn’t be surprised if I made an extra $20 to $40 thousand dollars this coming year, just because of the way I look, and because of the way people are responding to this new energy embodied in how I present myself. But also, as I told a friend recently, this has been one of the most interesting years of my life. And this piece was one of the most powerful.

"Having my own personal shopper who knew what would bring out my best made it so easy."
“Having Kailash do my color palette was a dream come true. I had been trying to combine a whole mish mash of colors – nothing quite fitting together and my clothes definitely didn’t bring out my best.
I was totally surprised at the colors I ended up with – I had never worn most of these before but they feel so right – like I’ve come home to myself.
The best part for me was having Kailash take me shopping – having my own personal shopper who knew what would bring out my best made it so easy.
I figure I’ve already saved a whole lot of money by not making the shopping mistakes I used to make. Now, everything feels in alignment.
My business has taken off in a huge way. I love my new clothes and get lots of compliments. I moved into my dream home which is now decorated in my new colors – next I’ll upgrade my website so it’s in alignment too.
When I drove over the border into the States the border guard had trouble believing I was going to fly to Tucson for 2 days for a ‘wardrobe’ makeover. Well, I couldn’t believe it either but it’s one of the best things I did last year! It’s made such a difference to have all my clothes working together. I now have many fewer clothes – and love them all. I love having it be so simple."

“Well! I must tell you what an extraordinary experience the ‘ColorEssence Experience’has been for me.
I honestly came to you thinking it would be fun and interesting (which it was) but I must admit, I came thinking I alreadyknew a lot about my own style and best colors... I already felt thatI had an "artist's" eye, so I felt good about my choices in color, my clothing, style and home.
I thought this would be the cherry on the sundae, not an entirely new sundae!
You blew me away!
With your gentle, yet very knowledgeable and honest direction you showed me "My true feathers!"
Since my consultation with you, I am so much more magnetic. (When I try on clothes in stores, people spontaneously flock to me commenting on how wonderful it looks.) I feel more powerful on purpose and integrated, and it shows. My confidence, joy and success continue too.
It's been a combination of subtle and dramatic results.

"I feel more confident, which is so important as a professional woman, and I have much more fun dressing myself!"
“First, Kailash encouraged me to stop dying my hair, which made my life easier and let me see more of my natural beauty. Then, when my palette was done, again my life was made easier because I could shop with confidence for clothes that really suit me, clothes that complement my own inner qualities.
I feel more confident, which is so important as a professional woman, and I have much more fun dressing myself! Now, how I present myself at work is congruent with who I am. And it feels so good!
