She also the former executive of a national e-commerce startup and was the owner of the private Pilates studio, Fitness with Kim in Los Angeles, CA. Her 15+ year track record in sales and entrepreneurship was featured in the Amazon Best Selling Book, "The Start: Journey to Entrepreneurship." Her work has been featured on The CW, ESPN, Netflix, and NPR, and in Thrive Global, CNBC, and Forbes.

She has overcome adversity in every area of life and business - growing up with an addict for a father, bulimia, abusive relationships, dropping out of college 2-weeks before she was going to start with two scholarships, sexual abuse, debt, under-earning, miscarriage, post-partum issues, professional discrimination, and 26 hours of natural childbirth.

And yet, she has manifested and grown 4 x multiple 6-figure companies, married the king to her queen, fulfilled her digital nomad dreams and lived abroad (even during a pandemic), birthed two beautiful children, and transformed her reality from victim to visionary.

What she has learned from each challenge is that ownership is essential, confidence is cultivated through cheering on your challenges, your language dictates your reality (and how to shift your language if you don’t like your reality), and how to move forward with faith and vision, especially when in the throes of fear.

It is with that courage, authenticity, conviction, and sparkle that she shares her silver linings of unsinkable optimism.

Her client successes include...

⭐️ Becoming #1 business in their Industry in the world!

⭐️ Achieving half a million in sales in their second year and getting engaged!

Becoming a Warrior for Possibility

How do you fight for a perspective to see greater possibility in the face of challenge? In her talk on understanding how to consciously and courageously make decisions that shape our personal perceptions of life, Kimberly Spencer, seeks to demonstrate how to challenge unconscious, disempowering stories and reframe them into stories that have the power to be a testimony for what’s possible when you fight for a positive perspective.

How to Claim Your Power: Kick Fear off Your Throne, Own Your Worth, and #CROWNyourself

Motivational talk for conscious leaders seeking freedom from the dungeon of doubt.

Your audience will discover the one secret that gives ALL their power away (and how to gain it back INSTANTLY), what language to use to get them to their goals, and the NLP techniques to do so, how to separate their identity from their results, and an emotional understanding of the 5 common fears that hold all humans back, and how to breakthrough and claim their power.

Mindful Monarchs: How to Leverage the Mind-Body Connection for Successful Relationships

Created for leaders seeking holistic success in their careers, bodies, and relationships. This talk is about how the language that we speak about + think about relationships (with our bodies and with others) manifests + shapes our present reality.

Your audience will discover how their language (both thoughts + spoken) is a self-fulfilling prophecy, why they need to stop wanting and start choosing, what negative self-talk does to their brain...and their results, why they need to treat their unconscious mind like it's a toddler, and NLP techniques to restructure their language to claim the reality they desire, in all areas of our lives.
