Kimberly is a certified Life Transformation Strategist with over 10 years of experience. She is from Baltimore, Maryland, but is currently based in Abu Dhabi, but works remotely with clients from all over the world. Her journey with transformation began while attending Restoration in Recovery at Faith Landmarks Ministries in Richmond, Virginia in 2010. There she began her own process of overcoming various forms of abuse in addition to growing up with an alcoholic family member which caused codependent behaviors. After completing the 12-step program for codependency Kimberly began working with other women with codependent issues as a leader with Faith Landmark Ministries in Richmond, Virginia. While there she found a love for seeing women transform and begin to live a life that they loved and herself drawn to life coaching. Kimberly realizes that when women heal it affects and inspires everyone around them so she chose the path of life transformation to help improve black women’s awareness of the effects of trauma and overcome trauma to realize their goals, aspirations, and dreams.
