People “No” You Before They “Know” You.

You are being “no-ed” for opportunities without getting the chance for people to know you. To know how smart, talented, resourceful & efficient you really are. To know how perfect you are for that senior-level position, how great your network would be for a new opportunity or how you’re a natural fit to win an industry award. 

Over the last decade, I’ve worked with A-List brands from Oprah and Taylor Swift to Kellogg and Marvel who all started at the same start line you’re currently at. I’ve distilled principles, frameworks & tactics that work from blockbuster brands to business leaders. It’s time to step into the drivers seat & create your career narrative. 

Stop living by default & start living by design. 

It's time to invest in your career capital, put your best foot forward & curate what shows up about you online.  

“I don’t want to seem self-centered!”

That’s why we’re doing it together. 

In this 5-Week Course you will learn how to represent your career & accomplishments in a way that welcomes new opportunities, connections & growth, without feeling sales-y, sleezy or self-promoting. 

We’ll go in-depth on the following concepts

A rock-solid game plan for online content creation 

Outlining career goals & "wouldn't that be nice" wishes

How to work with the LinkedIn algorithm, not against it

Outreach tactics for capturing attention & interest from industry leaders & potential mentors

Share your knowledge & know-how, without shame or embarrassment using templates & tactile frameworks

Awards, honors & accolades - why you need them & more importantly, how to get them

We’ll craft your career narrative together, making sure that when someone Google’s you their next thought is, “Now that’s someone I want to meet!”

We’ll show you how to connect with, utilize & leverage the most interesting people in your industry.

When someone hears about a new role, not-yet-public deal or industry award the first name they think of is yours.

Build a network that brings you opportunities

We’ll show you how sharing your industry expertise will build you as the “go-to person” that people can rely on. 

Your career isn’t kickball. You can’t wait to be picked. We’ll walk through how to set yourself up for recognition. 

We’ll create talking points that reflect your career highlights while staying humble. We’re about serving, not self-promoting.

This course is for anyone who wants to...

Since 2011, Kim has helped hundreds of A-List clients & brands establish, expand & grow relationships with their fans. The work hasn’t gone unnoticed – from Forbes’ 30 Under 30 to Inc.’s 35 Under 35 to a feature on Shark Tank, Kim’s work can be seen on stages & stadiums around the world with clients like Paul McCartney, Oprah, The NY Mets, Ace Comic Con & KISS.

After a decade in entertainment, Kim turned her sights to the business world realizing she could apply the similar concepts and frameworks to leaders, entrepreneurs & C-Suite executives who were ready to invest in their career capital, own their narrative and curate how they appear to the outside world. 

This course is designed for aspiring leaders, executives & founders who are ready to level up their first-impressions, prepare for bigger opportunities and take control of their career narrative. It’s for leaders who have realized the airlines had it right all along...you need to “put your own oxygen mask on before helping others.” It’s time to put you, your career & the story you tell others about who you are & what you do – first.

If you’re a founder, executive or industry-climbing hopeful that is ready to implement fast-paced frameworks that work – this course is for you. 

After completing this course, you will have frameworks for...   

Expanding your network & connecting to the “right people” in your industry

Creating two-way relationships with industry mentors & advocates

Maintaining a polished & professional LinkedIn profile

Applying for awards & honors that elevate your “career capital” & provide validation for quick-skimming third parties. 

Content Creation: Providing value & expertise to those in your network

Workshops are not for leaning back, they’re for leaning in. Kim plans on leaning in with you to dive into modules, lessons, frameworks & worksheets. From breakout sessions to real-time Q&A this fast-paced session will make the hours seem like minutes. 

Through peer learning and collaboration, you will meet like-minded industry leaders who are ready to run the distance. You have as much to learn from those in your cohort as you do from Kim. 

Workout class is harder to skip when a friend is going with you. You also tend to work harder if someone is watching than if you’re alone. Knowing this, feedback and accountability will be major factors in your success. If you can’t hold yourself accountable, we’re there for you. 

Kim has an extensive network of amazing guests that will be popping in throughout the 5-week course. Echoing her Coffee with Kim series where she interviews powerhouses like NY Times Best-Selling Author Jim Kwik & Entrepreneur Magazine’s Editor-in-Chief Jason Feifer, these sessions will be intimate and give cohort students face time with industry leaders.  

Kim’s coaching is honest and powerful – professional development is YOUR responsibility, always use data to support your accomplishments, and seek industry recognition to further your career. Kim gave me the nudge (okay, shove) I needed to go after industry awards this year and it was well worth it. With Kim's support, I landed a spot on an industry list of the most powerful women under 40. Thanks Kim!

I landed an A-List client & partnership deal thanks to Kim. She consistently removes the 6-degrees of separation to put the right people in the right rooms to make the most impact!

I wouldn't have landed in my dream job without our paths crossing and the constant encouragement you have provided. For proof, the CEO and CFO of my new company said one of the reasons they were interested in talking with me was from seeing my blog. The KIM effect strikes again! :)

Kim's framework and processes have helped me take what I knew I was capable of in my minds eye & bring it to life. Her guidance has helped me hone in on my career narrative & get clear about where I'm going & where I want to be.

If a teacher asked a question in class & you knew the answer, what would you do? You would likely raise your hand. If you didn't, how would they call on you? 

Every day in your career you have the chance to raise your hand. To say, “I am the best person for that new senior leadership role,” or “I do think I should have a seat at the table.” By identifying how to leverage your expertise, expand your network and craft your career narrative others around you know you are open to opportunities – that you know the answer. 

If you don’t raise your hand, how is the world supposed to call on you?

Talking about myself seems...self-promotional. I was raised to be humble, isn’t this bragging? 

Life happens – the kids get sick, the client has a meltdown or the dog ate your homework (and then threw up.) Workshops will be recorded and available for replay. However, we strongly recommend you make time so that you can ask questions in real time, join productive breakout sessions & network with guest lecturers. 

Do I have to attend all the live sessions in real-time? 

This course relies on you taking action. While Kim can give you the “directions” for the GPS, it will take you “putting the car in drive” to create real change. 

By the end of the course you will have (1) a networking & outreach system to connect to the “right people” in your industry, (2) a structured plan for leveraging mentors & advocates, (3) an optimized LinkedIn profile, (4) a template to apply for awards and honors that elevate your “career capital” and provide validation for quick-skimming third parties and (5) a game plan for sharing your expertise & knowledge online. These repeatable processes will generate like-minded connections, new opportunities and help you craft your career capital.

Beyond the tangible items, you will foster new friendships and connections with leaders from around the world. If you are the summation of the people you spend the most time with, make sure you are including the best of the best.   

What deliverables will I walk away with? 

The course has ten (10) live Zoom sessions across five (5) weeks. 

These take place on Monday and Thursday evenings from 7:00pm–8:30pm EST. Attending the kickoff call – even if it means staying up late or waking up early – is highly encouraged. The pre-race jitters are real and it’s more fun to lace up our sneakers & get pumped up together! 

Course recordings and notes from the live sessions will be available afterward for those who can’t attend live.

The good news, there is never a bad time to invest in your career capital. 

The bad news, you can never stop investing in your career capital. 

Whether you are a few years out of university or have been thriving in your industry for three decades you can never stop investing in your story, your network or your knowledge. This is a great place for you if you’re eager to invest in yourself and are ready to take your career to the next level. 

I’m not a seasoned professional, long-time leader or founder. Will I fit in here? 

Option 1: Scour the mall for hours trying on hundreds of pairs of black pants. 

Option 2: A friend lays out two pairs of black pants in your size & asks you to pick one. 

The internet is a shopping mall of bad fitting, good fitting and just okay options (aka black pants). You can spend months or years searching the internet for answers. I have lots of free advice littered throughout my blog, LinkedIn, Podcasts I’ve been on & magazines I’ve been featured in. 

You can try to run around collecting all the easter eggs...or I can just hand them to you. I’m excited to hand you the answers beautifully wrapped (if I do say so myself) and packaged with a global community of fellow leaders who are here to support you & cheer you on. 

I’m not saying you can’t do it the long & hard way, the question I’m asking is why would you? If someone gave me a “fast pass”, a cheat code or shortcut to learn faster in my career – I would take it & I think you should to.

Why join Kim’s course? Can’t I google a lot of this info?

Career Capital = Your Narrative + Network + Knowledge 

Where Career Capital is no longer a nice-to-have...it's a necessity. 

Before a first date, important meeting or call we google who we’re meeting with. 

“I don’t want to go on a date with some serial killer!”

“I’m not wasting my time with a junior person...I want to meet with the top exec!”

“I can’t even find information on this person...why should I meet with them?”

Your career narrative, network & knowledge are critical to how you show up in
the world.
