It's Kimberly's birthday — and she's celebrating with her most personal episode yet. In this solo conversation, recorded with handwritten notes and a whole lot of nerves, Kimberly opens up about the dissonance she's been feeling between the vision she has for her life and how she's actually been showing up. From playing small in her corporate days to realizing she's built a "penitentiary" of perfectionism as an entrepreneur, she gets honest about the fear, people-pleasing, and perfectionism that have kept her hiding. As she turns 39 — on Episode 139, no less — Kimberly declares this her year of facing her fears out loud, and she's inviting listeners along for the journey through her brand-new Substack, Fear Means Go.
