Clients experience

Kim joined our Women’s Network Group meeting to facilitate a 90-minute interactive presentation on ‘Speaking Up and The Power of Influence.’ Our members were highly engaged and encouraged to step outside their comfort zones and examine how to be our best selves. This session was extremely rewarding. The exercises got us thinking and improvisational speaking up in a safe environment to learn and grow together. Our members still talk about how inspirational and impactful this session was for them.

Crystal Mattox
Associate Director, Office, and HR Administration

Kim taught a wonderful class for our BKM Women’s Network, which allowed our group to examine and discuss our strengths with communication and things that could hold us back. Her interactive, engaging, and thought-provoking presentation was valuable to our entire group. Her ability to connect with attendees virtually was outstanding, and we highly recommend Kim as a speaker.

Susan Rounds
Managing Partner, Operations

Kim quickly won the trust of my team through the engaging activities she guided us through. These allowed people to take risks, see different viewpoints, and communicate their wants, needs, fears, and insecurities—real talk, real connection, real change.
Her training brings my team the right mix of experiential learning and direct instruction. But the nuggets of practical advice are their favorites. I can’t tell you how often we have said to one another when faced with challenging communication, breath, and smile.
