QL Graduate Spotlight: Josh Napier, Founder of 5Mile Watches

/in /by
josh-napier-5mile-watches-website-header
Josh Napier supported himself through college. After graduation, he hoped to commemorate his hard work by purchasing a high-quality watch before entering the workforce. But exorbitant markups made most high-end watches unaffordable. Josh knew that wasn’t right. So he set out to fix it.

Finding Guidance through Quantum Leap

Josh attended a free KWKC course of Quantum Leap (QL) for Young Adults and began to lay the groundwork for his future. After attending, Josh qualified for three months of free professional coaching.

“In the 3 months that [my coach and I] worked together, I made more progress than I had in the entire previous year. She kept me focused and accountable. . . . Without Dawn, I would likely still be spinning my wheels.“
⁠Josh uses a precise watchmaking technique called guilloche and needed special training to move forward. Unfortunately, there are only two people in the world who offer guilloche training, and the pandemic affected Josh’s ability to set money aside for his watchmaking education.

But thankfully, Josh qualified for a scholarship through KWKC! Josh’s Fund My Mission Scholarship allowed him to travel to Switzerland and attend one-on-one training under a world-renowned watchmaker.

“I am confident the resources and education from this KWKC Scholarship will set me on the path to become one of the world’s best watchmakers and help me bring awareness to American watchmaking.”

Revolutionizing the Watch Industry

Josh has now launched his business, 5Mile Watches. He is committed to keeping guilloche alive in fulfillment of his mission to empower young professionals.

“I want to transform the watch industry to bring attention to U.S watchmakers so that young aspiring watchmakers could have access to the resources, education and mentorship that I didn’t. I believe that anyone should have access to education and resources to execute and achieve their dreams if they are willing to work for it.”
You can find Josh on Instagram @5milewatches.

Looking Back on 2022

/in /by
Record-Setting Year

KWKC is dedicated to empowering young adults to discover their life missions in order to unlock their greatest potential.

But we also must practice what we preach. That means we have to strive to unlock our greatest potential, too. To do that, we set some pretty big goals for 2022.

Thanks to the support of our donors, coaches, and instructors, we set records in our three pillar programs: events, coaching, and scholarships!

2022: Setting Events Records

We knew that in order to empower more young adults to achieve their goals, we had to start with the foundation: Quantum Leap events.

In 2022, we celebrated:

2022: Setting Coaching Records

Each young adult ages 18–28 who attends a QL event is encouraged to apply for our three-month coaching program. Those who are accepted receive personalized guidance from a KW MAPS or Business MAPS coach.

In 2022, we awarded coaching to more QL graduates than ever.

The young adults in our coaching program receive six one-on-one coaching sessions, an invaluable asset for those dedicated to their personal and professional growth.

2022: Setting Scholarship Records

After completing their coaching, Quantum Leap graduates qualify to apply for Fund My Mission Scholarships (FMM) of up to $10,000. These scholarships empower recipients to pursue their life’s mission and receive support turning their dream into reality.

In 2022, we awarded more scholarships than ever before.

FMM scholarships are not limited to traditional continuing education paths. Though they can be used to help cover college tuition, FMM scholarships can be applied toward certification courses, training programs, private lessons and coaching, and more.

2023: A Year of Potential

It’s truly incredible to witness someone’s Quantum Leap journey. Just like the young adults we support, we’re committed to personal and professional growth in pursuit of our mission.

That’s why we’ve set our sights higher than ever before for 2023.

We’ve got big plans, including:

  • Adding another coaching and scholarship period to ensure there are more opportunities for young adults to benefit
  • Increasing scholarship funds awarded by 33%
  • Impacting more young adults than ever through our events


There’s never been a better time to support the next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs. You can give a year-end gift here.

Thank you for being a part of our journey.

QL Graduate Spotlight: Clark Nowlin, Founder of Golden Ratio Coffee

/in /by
kwkc-clark-nowlin-ql-graduate-golden-ratio-coffee

After a trip to Seattle, Clark Nowlin discovered “low-roast coffee,” a light, low-acid brew that didn’t cause any of the stomach discomfort he experienced from his classic cup of joe.

He knew he’d never go back. But low-roast coffee was (and still is) very difficult to source. So Clark was left with just one option: make it himself.

From there, the concept for Golden Ratio Coffee was born—and Clark became an entrepreneur.

The Power of Quantum Leap

But Clark’s entrepreneurial journey actually began much earlier. Clark was one of the first young adults to experience Quantum Leap through KWKC.

 

“Quantum Leap was really one of the first impactful things. . . . [Something Gary says] that was perspective-shifting for me was, ‘If it’s to be, it’s up to me.’ That was something I never realized. Everybody else in the world who founded a company are people who are no smarter than me or you. They basically just realized that if things weren’t as they’d like them to be, they have the initiative and the power to personally make change.”

 

Watch Clark’s story of QL, entrepreneurship, and of course, caffeine!

 

Today, you can support KWKC’s mission to empower and equip the next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs with the tools needed to remove limiting beliefs, take action, and live a big life.

As Clark says, entrepreneurship is a “perpetual kick in the pants.” Help the next generation of entrepreneurs like Clark find the guidance they need to turn their dreams into realities!
