Your Next Move Podcast

What if the reason you haven't hit your biggest goal isn't a missing strategy — it's a missing belief? In this episode, Kimberly is getting honest about the mindset trap that keeps even the most talented professionals and entrepreneurs stuck: the constant search for a better plan. Spoiler: the plan isn't the problem. The reps are. Kimberly breaks down why success is far less glamorous than we've been conditioned to believe, and why the "missing link" most high achievers are searching for isn't a new tactic — it's the willingness to keep doing what already works, consistently, even when the...

Your Next Move Podcast

In this episode, Kimberly gets into her mindset behind her recent program launch— and the results exceeded every goal she set. But this episode isn't really about the numbers. It's about what the numbers revealed: a story Kimberly had been quietly carrying since 2018 that she never said out loud, not to her clients, not to her audience, barely even to herself. For years, she had internalized a belief that she could get results for others, but that building a group program and a community wasn't something she could pull off. This launch is what finally dismantled that story. Kimberly walks...

Your Next Move Podcast

In this deeply personal episode, Kimberly pulls back the curtain on her journey from a career counselor making under $50,000 a year to building a multi-six-figure business that's maintained that level for five consecutive years. The vehicle that made it all possible? Speaking. Not keynote speaking at first—but strategic visibility through professional associations, conferences, and leveraging every speaking opportunity to build relationships and open doors. But here's what makes this story different: Kimberly wasn't a "natural speaker." She didn't have a dramatic transformation story or...

In this episode, Kimberly tackles the reality that most professionals aren't prepared for: virtual speaking is now the norm, not the exception. With 86% of job interviews conducted virtually and 90% of hiring managers expecting remote presentations to continue, your ability to command attention through a screen is just as important as your ability to command a room.
 
But here's the problem: most people treat virtual speaking like it's easier than in-person speaking. They assume they can wing it because they're in their own space with notes in front of them. The truth? Virtual speaking is a completely different skill set—and if you're using in-person strategies in a virtual environment, you're setting yourself up to fail. In this episode, Kimberly breaks down exactly why virtual speaking feels harder (spoiler: you're not imagining it) and gives you five specific strategies to dramatically improve your virtual stage presence.
 
What You'll Learn in this Episode:
  • Why virtual speaking is actually harder than in-person speaking—and the four reasons you're not crazy for feeling exhausted after video calls
  • The #1 mistake people make on camera that kills connection (hint: stop looking at yourself)
  • How to frame yourself professionally without expensive equipment—camera angle, lighting, and background strategies that make an immediate difference
  • Why your "normal" energy reads as low energy on screen and how to amplify without looking over-the-top
  • The chat monitoring strategy that keeps your audience engaged in real-time (and why you shouldn't delegate this to a moderator)
  • Technical basics that separate amateur presenters from polished professionals
