t's pretty incredible what the human spirit
can endure and overcome against all odds.
Kee Jones is living proof of that. The founder
of the healing initiative called Reset, Kee's
own resilience became her driving force - fueling
her mission to create a safe haven where women
can break free from past traumas and embrace a
powerful journey of healing.
Her profound determination never wavered, even
as she grieved losing multiple beloved family
members one after another. When Kee hit her rock
bottom in her early 40s, it was in that pit of reckoning that her life's purpose became crystal clear.
After hearing that whisper of "reset" for years, she
realized her calling - to be a guiding light for other
women emerging from their own spiritual storms.
From the very start, Kee's life was marked by
abuse, abandonment, and upheaval. As she openly
shares, the very people entrusted to care for her
innicted deep emotional and physical scars that
would follow her for decades. But Kee refused to
be a victim. Through hardship after hardship - the
broken homes, becoming a teen mom, cycles of
abusive relationships - she kept claiming her power, laser-focused on breaking the generational patterns.
What makes Reset so powerful is that it was born
directly from Kee's resilience transformed into an
unstoppable drive to empower others experiencing life's inevitable wounds. With radical empathy,
holistic wisdom, and the hard-won grit of someone
who has walked through ore, Reset provides a
compass for women ready to break the chains of
their past.

remarkable Kee Jones herself.
