Helping Moms Thrive in Every Aspect of Life

therapist.

and mom.

Welcome! I’m Kim —

Motherhood can feel overwhelming, lonely, and exhausting. But I believe every mom deserves a safe space to exhale, reset, and rediscover her strength — and that’s exactly what I bring to the mic.

When I'm not helping moms thrive, you'll find me experimenting with new recipes (now that I'm an empty nester!), cheering way too loudly for Auburn football, or hosting dinner parties that feel like warm hugs. I'm the friend who remembers your kid's big game and checks in when life gets hard.

I started as an elementary school teacher, became a counselor because I saw the need in families, and now run Elevate Moms - a practice focused entirely on helping mothers break free from self-defeating patterns and rediscover their potential.

Where You Might Have Heard Me Before:

I’ve had the joy of joining amazing hosts like Kari Kampakis on the Girl Mom Podcast, Jennifer Reid on A Woman Like You, and Sarah Nuse on Destined for Greatness.

The Family Framework: 7 Essential Elements to Building A Healthy Home

Most of us are trying to build a thriving home without understanding the essential elements that make it work, like constructing a house without a blueprint. After years of counseling overwhelmed families, I've identified the 7 essential elements that transform chaos into connection.

When you have a clear framework, everything changes: you become your family's emotional thermostat instead of reacting to every crisis, you understand each member's unique wiring so you can love them in ways that actually work, and you create systems that guide your family through both ordinary days and challenging seasons. The families that thrive aren't the ones with perfect kids - they're the ones who understand the blueprint.

What Makes My Approach Different?

I bring real expertise wrapped in real conversation.

With my M.A. in Professional Counseling and Tennessee LPC-MHSP license, I have the clinical background to back up what I share. But here's what your audience will love - I make it all feel like chatting with your wisest friend over coffee.

I get it because I've lived it.

As a former Navy wife who moved constantly before finally settling in Nashville, I understand the unique challenges modern moms face. I'm not speaking from an ivory tower - I'm speaking from the carpool line, the grocery store meltdown, and those 2 AM worry sessions we all know too well.

I create the kind of content your listeners save and share.

I've appeared on 15+ podcast episodes (including 10 appearances on Girl Mom Podcast with Kari Kampakis) and consistently deliver actionable insights that moms implement immediately and tell their friends about.

Let’s Chat!
