what does it mean to live by only yummy, always?
Many years ago I was in the process of opening a restaurant and training for a marathon, and I had an epiphany. I was pushing myself too hard professionally, personally and physically. I realized I can’t do it all and if I do, I’ll burn out completely.
So I developed “only yummy, always”: a mantra and a practice of only doing things that feel delicious for my soul. Making space for things in my life that are important to me, that light me up and that fill my cup.
I felt a deep calling to coach and teach, to support individuals embarking on the same journey. I empower my clients and students to redefine hospitality from the inside out, guiding them back to themselves through the power of accountability and alignment. I also support companies in creating sustainable cultures that truly put their people first.
“There is a distinct energy that Kim brings to a room. Kim is both assertive and empathetic at the same time and it is remarkable to see how this directly affects others. The dedication and passion she has for the people in the hospitality industry encourages anyone that crosses her path to be a better and a more compassionate human to themselves and others.”
