Today we’d like to introduce you to Kael Roberts.
Kael, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I started off in the fitness industry as a personal trainer and massage therapist in 2011. I gained recognition FAST. I booked celebrity clients, I was on TV multiple times, hired for commercials and print work as a fitness model, I even signed a deal with multiple professional athletes and high-status personalities.
It seemed like I had it made. I was getting paid to travel the world and do what I loved. I got to eat at the nicest restaurants, stay in the fanciest hotels, and network with some of the highest-level people in their industry. But there was always something tugging at my sleeve calling me to do something more for people, and the planet — far beyond the money, the “influencer status” or the name that I had built for myself.
I had always loved helping others, and along the way, began diving deeper into personal development work and psychology to sharpen my craft. Eventually, I started listening more to my intuition and followed where that calling led.
My search for more led me to stretch beyond the confines of my mind and explore a range of modalities such as neurolinguistics programming, reiki and energy work, breathwork, meditation, emotional freedom technique, tantra, emotional intelligence, cognitive behavioral therapy and more.
As I ventured deeper into myself, I realized: that to become the person I desired to become, I first had to learn how to BE in a different way. What unfolded next….wasn’t easy. I decided to go deeper into my own healing than ever before. I addressed my traumas and toxic behavioral patterns and really had to unearth some deep-rooted stuff.
I stumbled, fell, I made a lot of mistakes….I even found myself in homelessness for three months, but I picked myself back up over and over again…I kept moving forward, no matter what. My life depended on it.
What this whole journey has taught me is to be unashamed by my desires, unafraid of the callings of my heart, and undaunted in my pursuit of a higher purpose. It takes effort, but TRUST ME….it’s worth it.
It also meant being willing to let go of the pressure I had put on myself over the years to build the IMAGE of success, and learn how to fall more into the FEELINGS that I wanted my life and my business to actually provide me. The more I learned and healed, the more I realized: that I wanted to help others discover that same freedom for themselves. ACTUAL FREEDOM….NOT JUST THE PORTRAYED IMAGE OF IT….
Now I have the opportunity to teach others how to step into their power through healing the parts of their past/subconscious programming that are keeping them stuck from achieving more, then how to develop their mindset and skill levels to achieve success beyond their wildest dreams.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It has most certainly NOT been a smooth road. Homelessness in 2016 taught me the most, in fact, it revealed to me how I was my own worst enemy.
I had so many fears and self-doubts, unresolved trauma, and negative subconscious programming that was keeping me stuck in a limited and very negative spiral in life. And because of this, found myself experiencing homelessness (even after building so much success).
What being homeless for three months taught me was that I have the power to shape and change my own destiny.
You see…
One morning, I woke up on the floor of the construction site that I had been sleeping at for the last few weeks. This morning felt like other mornings but soon revealed it’s to be one of the most important mornings of my life – I woke up after crying myself to sleep for the 5th night in a row, pleading with God to help me, but not knowing what to do next…it took me several hours to finally exhaust myself enough to fall asleep but once I did, I got the best sleep I had gotten in several weeks. The next morning I woke up with a loud and clear voice telling me, “Kael, your circumstances will not change until you change how you think and feel about yourself and your life”. And immediately after that moment, I sat down to write a journal.
All I wrote was – “I find solutions in every part of my day. Solutions come to me easily. I am always being guided. I am open to this guidance.” And I sat with these words for about 10 minutes just allowing them to sink in.
Then the next morning, I woke up on the floor of the construction site, read the words I wrote from the morning prior, then wrote another new entry in my journal. I continued this practice every day forward, and within 3 weeks my entire situation changed.
I found a place to live, my business was beginning to gain traction again, and things started to look up.
This whole experience, although the most challenging life experience I have ever had, taught me so much, specifically how powerful our thoughts are. This experience inspired me to write my first book “The Power of 1 Positive Thought”, and has since taken me on an amazing journey of helping others heal, then stepping fully into their purpose to create a massive ripple effect in this world.

The crisis has affected us all in different ways. How has it affected you and any important lessons or epiphanies you can share with us?
Covid allowed me to make the full transition away from the fitness industry and step into what I am doing now full-time. The facilities I was training clients and doing massage out of both shut down during covid, which forced me to fully commit to the transition I was already in the process of making.
Of course, it was scary at first, because I was newly transitioning and didn’t have much income coming in at the time, but it gave me the space in my schedule to fully commit, and for that I am grateful.
