Hey everyone–Kim here! This week, I’m flying solo and getting a little more personal than usual. I’m pulling back the curtain on the first seven years of my 50s, what I’ve come to call “The Seven Year Bitch.” Yep, you read that right. These years have stretched me in ways I never expected. They’ve been uncomfortable, eye-opening, and deeply transformational. But this isn’t a doom-and-gloom episode. It’s a real and honest reflection...
