It was at last year’s Hard Rock Café in New York, during Najah Moeser’s soulful performance, when I met Jessica “Kameko” Rooks (or “Meko” to many). What started with a friendly greeting transformed into an instant bond. Here was a single mother of two, an entrepreneur, an artist, and an athlete in spirit, whose warmth instantly stood out, transcending her Instagram-perfect appearances.
Expanding Horizons, One Journey at a Time
Guided by her brand Travel With Meko, Kameko champions exploration, community, and family. Through her curated “Mommy & Me” group trips, like the upcoming New Year’s getaway to Costa Rica, she invites mothers and children to travel, bond, and grow as part of a nurturing “village” of like-minded explorers (wetravel.com, travelwithmeko.com).
The Author’s Voice: Motherhood With No Limits
In her debut book, Motherhood With No Limits, Kameko blends memoir with guidance, sharing her journey from shifting limiting beliefs about motherhood and travel to actionable tips for balancing life, parenting, and self-expression (travelwithmeko.com, Facebook).
Strength, Beauty, and Impact
Based in New York City, Kameko also works as an esthetician, helping others glow from the inside out with everything from facials to tattoo removal. She embodies balance, blending entrepreneurship, wellness, artistry, and motherhood into a radiant, actionable influence.
Why She Makes 2025’s “Most Influential” List
Kameko challenges stereotypes of single motherhood by traveling extensively with her children and creating memories that will last a lifetime. She leads with example, showing that community building is not just an idea but a lifestyle as she unites mothers from all walks of life to explore the world together. Her life reflects a rare combination of artistry, athleticism, and business savvy, all while maintaining a grounded presence as a mother. The influence she carries goes far beyond Instagram filters, resonating in the lives of the families she inspires and the communities she helps shape.
