SignatureTalk:

In my keynote presentation, Clarity Follows Courage: Bold Decisions, Bold Results            I  take audiences on a transformative journey that begins with vulnerability and ends with empowerment. I share deeply personal stories—like the loss of my mom and the courage it took to navigate life as a “motherless mom”—to illustrate the fragility of life and the necessity of bold action. From borrowing $5,000 to invest in a coach at a time of uncertainty to purchasing my dream business at 52, I highlight how taking risks and trusting the unknown unlock clarity, confidence, and transformation. Audiences are invited to see their own fears and hesitations in a new light, understanding that life’s greatest breakthroughs often come when we act before all the answers are clear.

This keynote provides a simple yet powerful framework for bold decision-making: Radical Responsibility, Courage Over Perfection, and Trusting the Process. Through inspiring stories and actionable steps, I empower individuals to stop waiting for the “perfect moment” and take ownership of their dreams. Attendees leave not only motivated but equipped with practical tools to overcome fear and take their next bold step.

This talk is a catalyst for change, inspiring people to embrace courage as the key to creating the life and success they’ve been waiting for.

            Lessons in Loss:               Turning grief into strength. 

A deeply personal and empowering session on navigating grief, building resilience, and finding meaning after loss.

Hi, there! I’m Kim.  

And this is my backstory...

After losing her mom, I learned early on about the fragility of life and the necessity of inner strength. Instead of allowing this loss to define me, I embraced it as a catalyst for growth, embarking on a relentless pursuit of becoming the best version of myself.

My career in HR proved to be the perfect outlet for my innate ability to connect with people, make them feel heard and guide them toward solutions that inspire action. 

But, that was really just the beginning of my story. 

• In 2019 I borrowed $5,000 from my  401k to hire my first coach
• Fast forward to 2023, I made the bold decision to buy a business (at the age of 52!) 
• Launched the Canva Template Shop, helping business owners elevate their branding.

This leap of faith is an example of my personal mantra:  stop dreaming and start doing.

Now I combine my corporate expertise and entrepreneurial insight to guide others on their journeys, showing them that it’s never too late to take bold action and reinvent yourself!
