About Hope Katz Gibbs
A journalist for more than 30 years hopegibbs.com, Hope founded Inkandescent Public Relations in 2008 and since has worked with hundreds of small business owners to build their brand and grow their companies.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania in 1986, this Philadelphia native lived around the country for years before settling down in the Washington, DC area in 1995 to marry illustrator Michael Gibbs,”:http://mglenwood.com and start a family. Her daughter Anna and son Dylan are the pride and joys of her life.
Hope migrated to Richmond, VA in the fall of 2014 to expand the video department of her business after falling in love with the city. She saw Richmond through the eyes of Anna, then a sophomore in the photo / film program in at VCUarts; she knew it was the right place for the next phase of her life. In the years since, she’s written, directed and produced hundreds of videos for her YouTube channel, Inkandescent.TV.
A lifelong student of the healing arts, Hope became a massage therapist specializing in pregnancy massage in 1991. She became a Reiki Master in 2015, and in 2016 finished her 200-hour Kundalini Yoga teacher training. She practices yoga daily, and is thrilled to share with the world her passion for the power of tapping into your inner-knowing, expanding your self-love, and opening your heart to yourself and others. The 108-bead mala that she wears around her wrist reminds her daily to be the best version of herself that she can be.
Founding Inkandescent Health & Wellness with her daughter Anna is a dream come true.
