Today we’d like to introduce you to Kay Jenkins.
Hi Kay, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I am Kay Jenkins – A Top Producing Luxury Real Estate Broker licensed in multiple states. Performance Life & Business Coach helping hundreds transform their lives. And a professionally published international Model. I am unapologetically self-expressed. This is my mission statement in life and the belief system that has allowed me to build a Life By Design.
I grew up with a single mom and absent father who struggled with addiction in the heart of a trailer park on the west side of Utah. I seriously struggled as a child and I was bullied and abused for many years. When I was 16, my older brother was in a severe car accident that left him with a traumatic brain injury and completely disabled for the rest of his life. I for whatever reason only had a concussion. So for obvious reasons, this caused a lot of survivor guilt for me so I started partying and lashing out as a cry for help and attention from those I needed it most.
After repetitive charges, I was finally taken away from my parents and put into state custody where I lived in solitary confinement for well over a year until becoming an adult. During my time in the treatment program, I was able to recognize and highlight my areas of strengths and learn how to overcome my weaknesses. This was a time of reflection and direction in my life where I had to decide on who and what I wanted to be in the world.
Shortly after being released, I was faced with having to take legal guardianship over my brother and place him in a full-time care facility. At this time, I had to step up and be there for him because no one else would. After accepting these responsibilities I was able to focus on my future and which career path to take. With careful consideration and thought I was set on becoming a Real Estate Agent. Only eighteen years old and hungry to make something out of myself! So I took the little savings I had and enrolled myself in school.
Every day, I studied and practiced my craft. Once I passed my exam I joined one of the top producing teams in the state of Utah to learn from the best and provide for my brother! After years of being mentored by the best brokers was finally ready to start producing on my own and build a business independently. During that time, I started to share my story online and the progress of my brother’s condition. My audience fell in love with our journey and the transparency about our situation. This naturally evolved into me wanting to help others pull themselves out of the darkness. If I could do it, so could they. That’s where Kay By Design – my coaching company was founded.
It started with one-on-one mentorship and grew into multiple online guides for every area of my life that others wanted to learn from. Now, I am speaking on podcasts and self-development panels. Having these two passions of mine see so much success allowed me to pursue other outlets and streams of income as well. The confidence and courage it took to overcome such unfortunate circumstances is what fuels me when I am behind the camera modeling. I’ve already proven to the world I can contribute on multiple levels but I’m simply not done yet. I strive to prove that diversity is powerful and I refuse to fit inside the box society has tried to place me in.
Being disruptive is what God created me to do. It’s now been five years of consistent independent production in all three of my businesses and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I have received multiple awards for my production, been recognized worldwide for the brand I’ve built, and will soon be speaking on stage in front of thousands to express my testimony. It’s been an honor to become who I am today. I am proud of my past and the woman it has helped me become.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Kay Jenkins Real Estate | Kay By Design?
I expanded my practice to Miami to be able to specialize in working with Artists, Athletes, Entrepreneurs, Influencers, and investors. New young money from creators that I can relate to because I am one myself. My first house ever sold in Miami was $1.5M to one of the top producing Only Fans producers in the world. My modeling has opened up so many doors in expanding my network and granting access to high-profile clientele.
So essentially I have built a bridge between my industries and it comes full circle. Everyone doubted it was possible, saying I had to pick one or the other but I live for proofing my opps wrong. I am known for being a SHARK! The number one thing people say about me whether it’s to my face or behind my back is that I am a boss and I handle business. I have aggressive negotiation skills and utilize all my assets to ensure the deal gets closed. My entire brand and way of being sets me apart from others because I am doing what no one else has ever done before.
I want the public to know I am the property plug for all of South Florida. Buying, selling, renting, 10 years of experience at only the age of 28 shows how committed I am to my craft. If my story inspires anyone who wants to learn directly from me about anything I have accomplished I encourage them to book a coaching call and begin their transformation journey with me.
And if any brand wants an exotic and unique model with a beautiful story behind her to collaborate with their brand, book me for your next campaign. The possibilities are endless with an open mind!
Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
Living the life I designed down to every last detail. Being able to give my brother the best quality of life regardless of his circumstances, Watching Kyler communicate with me through sign language saying he’s proud of his little sister is honestly everything to me.
Telling him about all the houses HE helped me sell because of the strength our bond provides me has made everything possible. My love language is giving, so any time I can give back and put someone in a position to win, I will do whatever it takes. Paying it forward first is what my trials have taught me.
