It started with a panic attack in a client meeting.

Kim Palmer grew up in New Zealand and spent most of her career in consumer marketing in London, at businesses including Tesco and Lloyds Bank. By 2016 she had the senior job, a baby on the way, and panic attacks that came in the middle of client meetings.

She tried the usual things. What finally worked was hypnotherapy. It didn’t ask her to think harder or empty out her mind; it worked on the part of her that was doing the worrying. She kept wondering how many other women were lying awake with the same thing, and not telling anyone.

In 2017 she put Clementine sessions on the App Store as a side project, recorded by qualified hypnotherapists. In 2019 she left her corporate job to run it full time. Since then Clementine has raised £1 million to grow, worked with No7, Bodyform, Yoto, Avanti West Coast and Sensodyne.

The Unwind & Sleep Kit is the next step. After eight years of women telling us the screen at bedtime was part of the problem, we made it something you barely have to look at. Tap a card on your phone, press play, turn it face down, and the session plays through a band you wear to bed.

In 2026 Kim went back through six years of the app’s data, 541,097 plays, to see how women actually used it. What she found shaped everything we make now. Read the 3am Report.

  • Kim Palmer, in 2017. She spent most of her career in consumer marketing in London, until a panic attack hit in the middle of a client meeting. Hypnotherapy was what finally worked, so she started Clementine for all the other women lying awake with the same thing. Read Kim’s story.
