LOL with Kim Gravel
My mission is to encourage women LOL with Kim Gravel is a weekly comedy podcast for women where we laugh about the messiness of life and turn that mess into a message of confidence and hope. New episodes drop every Thursday. On each episode I tackle the topics that women care about with guests who will make you laugh, make you think, and help you see things in a new way. I talk with strong southern women like Leanne Morgan, incredible musicians like Hannah Dasher, industry leading professionals like Dr. Drew, superstars like Deion Sanders, and everyone in between. LOL means laughing out loud, but it also means living, learning and loving out loud too. We all face so many expectations and LOL is a reminder that you can be authentically who you are, no matter what anyone else thinks. It doesn’t matter what you look like, what mistakes you’ve made in the past, or what rude thing your kids just did - we’re all the same in different ways and we’re all in this life together, so let’s come together each week and laugh about our messy, imperfect lives until we pee our pants (Lord knows, I do that a lot). You are BEAUTIFUL. You MATTER. You are here for a REASON. And you have SO MUCH to offer. GIRL, YOU GOT THIS! So subscribe and join our community of amazing women so we can laugh and grow together. I ain’t Joe Rogan, and I don’t do culture war. Instead I’m here to lift you up no matter who you are and what you believe. I always keep it positive even when we’re digging into a deeply personal or challenging topic. Some of the topics we get real about are: Raising a family Supporting other women Body image Dieting and eating Self love Faith and religion Sex and intimacy Marriage and dating Menopause and aging Answering your call Manifesting your goals Business success Managing outside expectations Social pressure Vulnerability Confidence Uncertainty How to be brave Want to learn more? Here is Kim Gravel's biography: Kim Gravel is an entrepreneur, TV personality, public speaker and beauty industry leader, but most of all she has a passion for people and seeing them rise. In 1991, at the age of 19, Kim became one of the youngest Miss Georgias in the state pageant’s history. Her authentic, common-sense style has resulted in Kim being one of the most booked guests on The Steve Harvey Show and starring in the hit weekly docu-series “Kim of Queens” on the Lifetime Network. In 2016, Kim partnered with television and on-line retail giant QVC to launch her wildly successful apparel line, Belle by Kim Gravel®, and a year later the Belle Beauty® cosmetic line. Kim designs figure focused fashion and beauty products for all shapes and sizes, and in 2021 she won the coveted Star Award for QVC Vendor of the Year. Her compassionate yet straight forward "Dr. Phil-esqe" style keeps her in high demand as a Life Coach, mentor, advisor and consultant. Kim is a sought-after keynote speaker, specializing in the areas of women’s empowerment, inspirational motivation, and beauty & image perception. Using humor, edification & authenticity, Kim inspires and connects with audiences around the world.
