Testimonials
"Participating in SMILE™ offers you a chance to pause and reflect on your overall well-being. Life is stressful and SMILE™ provides ways to check in with yourself and learn strategies to find calm and peace in a demanding world."
Caroline, Reading Specialist
"This was the best training I have had in my 37 years of teaching. I'm thankful to have attended this SMILE™ training/coaching with Kim."
"I was doubting Thomas when I first heard about SMILE. I thought there was no way I could talk about my personal life/feeling to anyone. I am a private person, that is my business, but I was wrong. Going through the sessions I found it was helping me handle situations/moments in my life, understanding there are ways to heal through activities, breathing techniques, and listening to others. I started to feel less intrusive to open up and share some of what I was feeling. Thank You!"
Laura, 40 Year Veteran Teacher
"The SMILE™ program not only helped guide me as a school counselor but also helped foster my personal growth and healing as well. After completing the SMILE™ sessions, I felt energized to get to know my students, their stories, and how I could help advocate for their academic, social, and emotional needs. While also discovering my own need to heal from my unresolved grief, and the impact it had on preventing me from being the most healthy socially, emotionally, and physically that I could be. Everyone could benefit from Kim's SMILE™ program and knowing her. She is a beautiful soul, a heart with ears, and a brilliant keeper of knowledge. I can't thank her enough for the courage and health she has given my life!"
Becky, School Counselor
"One of the most enjoyable training/coaching I've ever had. The amount of tips, tricks and insight she gave me was amazing."
"Keep doing this, so many would benefit from this training and puts importance on mental health."
"SMILE™ was a great experience for me! The activities Kim shared and facilitated during our time together allowed me to look more closely at myself, my personal habits and my professional practices. During my three hours of 1:1 coaching, Kim helped me refine my interactions with staff and students at my school in ways that facilitate connection rather than control. Every person within the SMILE™ family has different goals, concerns and areas in their lives or profession that lend themselves to serious growth potential. No matter where your journey to self-discovery and growth take you, Kim will walk the path side by side with you!"

Open Up Your Soul's SMILE™
Self Discovery & Grief Recovery. A teaching memoir using the holistic SMILE™ approach.
Kim's teaching memoir: a journey from headspace to heartspace, rediscovering the love grief buried. Kim lost her father and carried the grief through infertility, adoption, invisible disabilities, and life's relentless challenges. Each loss added another layer, covering the love that remained within, hidden but never gone.
Open Up Your Soul's SMILE™ is Kim's teaching memoir of implementing the holistic SMILE™ approach in her own life, shifting from mindset to heart wisdom. She shares how the SMILE™ journey guided her into her heart to discover who she truly is, giving voice to what's been deeply hidden from judgment, criticism, or society's need to fix her. This journey transforms grief to grace, allowing love to shine brightly within once more. The love you seek outside yourself isn't necessary; it remains within. Once transformed, it permeates outward to everyone you love.
From head to heart. From grief to grace. From buried to brilliant.
