“Do you fling yourself off a cliff and expect to fly to Hawaii?” I asked my client.
She stared at me perplexedly, “Um...no...I would die.”
“Exactly!” I exclaimed.
You see...
Having worked with 5,6, and 7-figure entrepreneurs for the past 4 years, and having been an entrepreneur for the past 12 years, I’ve found the number one reason why people start their own businesses - freedom.
Hey, it was my reason too.
So the entrepreneur flings herself off the cliff with the Braveheart-worthy battle cry of FREEEEEEEEEEDOM into the wide world of entrepreneurship, expecting just that…
Only to be surprised by the crash landing on the rocks below.
So she picks herself up, wringing her hands through her hair as to “why God, why” is she not feeling even a smidge free.
Why does everyone else on Instagram seem to be doing sooooo much better than me?
Why is so and so-and-so so much more successful?
And then, the idea dawns...
She picks herself back up off that rock of failed attempts to climb back up the cliff gathering materials, resources, gadgets, software, and the latest “things” that “of course” her business needs to fly because some “guru” said that’s what did it for her.
She finds business tactics - summits, landing pages, webinars, chatbots, Facebook groups, podcasts, memberships, posting 3x a day on social media. She even goes so far as to VA. Oooooh.
These tactics are like the nuts and the bolts and the parts of a plane and a VA is like some handyman you picked up outside Home Depot to help you build something - it’s a hope and a prayer at best that she can scrap together with enough willpower, tenacity, and Google vids to build the business that will fly her to their destination.
Sound familiar?
She DYI’s a kite or a paraglider, strap herself to it, wave au revoir to their Home Depot VA (who doesn’t even speak French), and flings herself again off the cliff toward freedom!
Maybe for a moment, she catches a breeze - a sale! a whiff of wind in her sails to carry her a little farther beyond the flat rock of failed attempts. Yet still, she plummets into the ocean.
Instead of enjoying the cool waves wash over her, she’s now drowning in overwhelm, trying to figure out how to get this goddang para-winged thing off of her, fearing swimming to shore to scrap together the pieces to give it a go again.
They flung themselves off the cliff of entrepreneurship, forgetting to build the plane on the way down.
Relate much?
Processes are your plane.
Relationships guide your direction.
KPI’s are your dashboard and metrics that make sure you’re staying on track.
Your team is your crew, the pilot, the ground control to Major Tom that you need to get you safely landing every time to where you want to be, Pina Colada in hand.
And sales...well, cue Bette Midler, because sales are the wind beneath your wins, baby!
That’s why so many entrepreneurs are stuck in groundhog day, reliving the same struggles, and typically, the same income year after year.
You cannot fly to freedom without a STRUCTURE.
And, while, yes, I do act on some things that aren’t “structured” - like moving to Australia in the middle of a pandemic - it is because I had the structure in my business set up so that I could safely support myself and my family to live this life.
So if you know you need more structure…
If you are craving having that team to support you so you can operate in doing what you do best...
If you’re like, Kim, dear, God, help me build that plane...
I’m looking for 10 entrepreneurs who are currently making 5-figures for a brand new 1:1 private coaching program.
Now, my private clients typically pay me $10,000 to $39,000 to work with me.
But, I get it.
When you’re making mid-five-figures a year, it’s simply not fathomable, realistic, or responsible to drop that much on coaching - even though, you may know you need it.
That’s why I created my Queen-B(usiness) Quickie Package.
90-Days of weekly intensive coaching.
Daily messaging to me in your back pocket 24/7.
...And the structure and the systems to get you to 6-figures in 2021.

I’m going to level with you here -
If you want to keep DIYing it…
This ain’t for you.
If you’re scared of making so much money that they take away your unemployment money in your business…
This ain’t for you.
If you like living in overwhelm and find valor in being a solo warrior…
This ain’t for you.
If you want to keep seeking free solutions to solve a cash-flow problem…
This ain’t for you. (I mean, please tell me you see the paradox there, right?)
This is for the QUEENS who are claiming their power over their schedule, who are done accepting the crumbs when they know they want the whole cake...and they’re going to freaking eat it too, AND keep their head properly on their shoulders.
This is for the action-takers.
The movers.
The shakers.
The hustlers.
The go-getters.
The make-it-work-until-it-works.
The can-do attitude committed folk.
The relentless.
The resilient.
The obsessed.
