Learn more about Kimberly's road From Beginner to Boss:

Kimberly is now a certified life and business coach, intuitive guide, medium, author, and speaker—supporting women to find purpose, healing, and confidence from the inside out. But she didn’t plan for this life—it chose her. After leaving her high-powered career (literally walking out of a boardroom meeting when a voice told her to “get out”), Kimberly went on a spiritual journey that led her to coaching and, ultimately, to healing not just herself, but others.

Through deep personal loss, financial uncertainty, and massive career shifts, Kimberly built a thriving coaching practice rooted in positive psychology and soulful alignment. She quickly scaled to six figures but also learned hard lessons about hustle, boundaries, and burnout. Now, she’s rewriting the rules—no more chasing, just flow, freedom, and fulfillment.

Her story is proof that you can rise from heartbreak, rebuild from the ground up, and create a life that feels as good as it looks.

A Chat with Kimberly:

Question: What advice would you give to an aspiring entrepreneur?

“Don’t say yes to everything. Just because opportunities come doesn’t mean they’re aligned. Sit with yourself and ask if this truly serves you. Protect your energy. Keep your vision sacred. And find a community of women who really see you—because not everyone will get it.”

Question: What lessons shaped the boss you’ve become?

“Loss taught me what matters most. After my husband passed, I knew I couldn’t keep going through the motions. I had to build a life and a business that felt meaningful. That meant walking away from security and trusting the universe to guide me—and it did.”
