I Quit My Job. *and THIS happened*

Detailing my experience in corporate America, what prompted me to leave it all behind and how I created the life I truly wanted to live 💕

[@aredabush1722]

I was terminated from my job on May 1st of this year, since then I have lost 33lbs, stop drinking, become less aggressive, and treated my severe anxiety and depression disorder. God knew what he was doing, I feel 1000 times better. Plus I started a new job 3 days after I lost my old one. Life goes on.

[@ladyindaroom]

This is Deep! You connected back with your SOUL🙏🏿 Your soul was broken slowly but surely! You listened and now it’s restoration season for you💜

[@Christinesworldspice]

Love this!

[@newlife624]

God will definitely make a situation uncomfortable to get your attention to bring u back in believing and trusting in him. Force u to be what he created you for. Love ur story!

[@reneec4711]

Good for you! ❤The old job was probably the cause of your severe anxiety and depression disorder! I’m so glad that u chose your health first ❤

[@ihama99]

Do not quit your job if you don't have a back up plan and have finances saved up. Please don't. Remember you do not have 2.3M followers and KZbin checks coming in. Save save save then you can quit if you have a solid plan

[@sable7114]

That is exactly what Kim said. Hold on to the old job build up something else on the side until you reach that Comfort level

[@rondas7772]

Yep correct, I tell folks this all the time

[@misstyeisha4917]

Did you watch her video? She literally said that lol

[@michelarosier1918]

I approve this message.

[@miluzamara]

I agree if its something you can manage. I disagree if the job is wayyyy too toxic. That's stays with you for life and it ruins your brand and professional development.

[@ramoniabrooks8985]

Literally quit my job yesterday and gave a 1 day notice. I knows it’s unprofessional. I’ve been there for 6 years. Was diagnosed with cancer in 2020 and then they started treating me crapping. Did an interview last week and was given the job on the spot. Thank you Jesus!

[@Wim-Bella-ina]

Congratulations on your new job. Don't feel bad about your notice, employers don't give notice when letting go of their employees.

[@Shoppingha]

I pray to God that you are healed from the cancer ❤️

I recently resigned from my job and I feel so relieved the stress and the pressure was not worth it. I am excited for this next chapter in my life

[@kmurray559]

Kim I quit my job back in June. My only regret was not doing it sooner. I was hired under false pretenses. They didn’t give me all the details of the job. Then my dog passed away and my life started spiraling out of control. My managers became less patient and rude. I was under so much stress. I finally chose ME ! 😊Thanking God for all his provisions

[@treasurewithlove]

I always don't take it personal whenever someone quits their job. We all have needs and our health, mental health and family is important. We are all replaceable at jobs. I used to work a lot of overtime. But now, I get tired just thinking about working overtime. 😅 I'm at a different season in my life where I am focusing on what's more important to me. Self care, healing and living my best life. I try to stay at jobs as long as I can tolerate. But once I've had enough and it has become unbearable I leave. My aunt told me something that stuck to me about working. She said "Girl live your life. It's too many jobs and opportunities out here to make money. So much money to be made; to be feeling stuck at a job"

[@patriciarogerse200]

[@cupcakesandhappiness]

I started praying at the beginning of the year that this would be my last year working for “the man” lol I built a great baking business that I started in 2018. Well I lost my job in October and I had never been so calm and at peace in my life!! I knew it was time for me to put 100% in my cupcake business and that’s exactly what I’m doing. I’m so happy and I know that 2024 is going to be Amazing!!🙏🏾❤️ Blessings to you all

[@Vanessa-qy3lt]

Great video. I remember Judge Judy stating once, 'Find something you love to do, and find a way to make a living out of it as everyday will be a party.' I enjoyed watching.

[@aprilaroundtown2856]

I left my job of almost 24 years and I've never felt better. It felt like a dream at first but now it feels like my new normal. Less stress, lost weight, less anxiety, feel more respected, more money, more flexibility, etc etc etc. God is so good! Your comfort zone will kill you. It truly did and I had to get uncomfortable with the process and I did it scared. You can do it too! Thank you for sharing sis!

[@CB-jf9il]

Amen...left after 24.5 yrs. Working in my purpose now.

[@Keecoe]

Hi Kim, I worked in Corporate America for 7 years. I launched my event planner business in July. I decided to take a leap of faith and resign back in October. I was so overwhelmed by the job. It was very stressful because of the people, the racism, the favoritism. It's like no matter how hard I worked, or how good I was in my role, I was always denied a promotion and constantly told I was not good enough. This entire month I can say am a better wife, a better mother, and a better (grad) student. I thank you for this video because I know the decision I made was not in vain. You are so inspirational.

[@EventCertificate]

Go planner!

[@dr.aliadixonnursepractitio6473]

Look at God! Women were designed to be “better” wives mother (if we are one) These jobs will suck the life of you and you will have nothing to give your family! Look at you winning with your family too Mrs Event Planner of the year 🎉❤️🙏🏿

Thank you so so much! @@dr.aliadixonnursepractitio6473

[@Keecoe]

Thank you so much!@@EventCertificate

[@kaidesignsboutique2]

I say it at least once a week, managing adults is like constantly getting middle school students in order. It's crazy! I've been in management for about 15 years and I agree with everything you've mentioned. The job I've had minimal stress was when I worked at Kelloggs in the warehouse while in college. Honey, being on my forklift/tow motor, loading trucks, minding my business, and laughing at the old people jokes, was the life 😆 Great tips. Thanks for sharing.

[@ShaylaWynn]

I was just telling my husband this, how I was so much happier when I worked menial jobs like doing back stock at a department store. Now that I work in leadership (education), I am so miserable dealing with such overgrown children. Before I was in leadership I was a teacher and although it was challenging, it wasn't nearly as draining as managing adults smh

[@classicstorm]

I hear this all the time...the thing is, a lot of adults have not grown up yet, which is the problem...I couldn't imagine being a manager because at the level I am at now, I can't stand my coworkers...I only had one job where I really enjoyed working with my coworkers, but then everyone quit, and we got new staff that sucked...

[@TheAregebesolas]

I am a COO and I have to tell you you are spot on. Managing different personalities and moods and their ups and downs it’s mentally and emotionally draining. Thank you for this video. I am on my journey making a plan.

[@crystalj3617]

Facts! I literally plan to leave my HR role in January to work at a warehouse job temporarily until I finish a tech program I’m currently in.

[@EstelleCreativeDesigns]

I agree with you 100% people don't understand when you work a job it limits EVERYTHING!!! It limits how much house you can afford, it limits how much you can go on vacations, it limits spending 2 hours at lunch with friends, when your schedule is 8-5 they still expect you to be there at 8 even in BAD weather!

[@DiamondRoyalMinistries]

The jobs are extremely ridiculous these days to be honest.

[@ladyt6169]

I’m feeling unmotivated and drag myself into work like you spoke about now. On the outside looking in, I have a “good” job. However, we are severely underpaid for the stress we face there, and I’ve never been so depressed and anxious in my life. I don’t even make enough to save (rapidly that is). Bills are drowning me, and I just feel like I’m in quicksand. Everyday I want to quit, but I know I can’t. I’ll definitely be homeless if I do. So I try to stick it through, but each day is a TASK. Worst part about all of this is, I don’t even know what my passion is. I’m praying for anyone who feels this way. It’s mentally draining.

[@deenadream]

We are literally in the same boat. But im more drawn to the creative aspect of life. I like visuals. I love video recording and photos. My suggestion to you. Try a bunch of random things and see what speaks to your soul.

[@user-wr7cl5tg5i]

I felt the exact same way last yr, and just quit Wednesday. I couldn't do/take it any more.

[@Keitoyou]

I am praying that all of you have found happier and fulfilling situations in your life!

[@saushaakila2105]

Wow. I was literally just thinking… I am in this job I worked hard to get and once the training ended, I’m like I don’t want to do this and it’s not devastating but definitely threw me for a loop. But I am doing certifications through the job. So once I do those and like you said build a cushion, I’m going to just do me. A lot of these corporate jobs like I’m in now, Don’t care about you the person. They care about the money in their pockets.

[@TheExWife]

I feel like dropping my passion here. So, I've been into writing screenplays for years. I kinda stopped and started so many times but I can honestly say, I have written 3 full feature films and 2 tv scripts. The first one, even though it was copyrighted, was stolen. Unfortunately, you can't copyright a concept. Nevertheless, last year I took it seriously again and I'm investing in getting it off the ground for real. I know it's a long shot but the resources are much better now than when I first started. I honestly feel like next year, I'll be living my dream.

[@fabandgoodvibes1589]

I'm looking into traveling around the world in a couple of years. I need to start saving so that I can quit my current job. I'm tired of working for people, so I'm going to step out in faith.

[@aidadiack41]

when I tell you, this is perfect timing! God is so gooddd😩 my story looks so much like yours I was in the corporate scene for five years, thinking that that was my boss babe dream and in reality, it was destroying my personality and my individuality. This year me and my husband went into prayer and it was confirmed that it was time for me to quit my job and I am now within the two week notice. I’m excited but scared but your video really motivated me.

[@ramieyaharris]

This is a must. I am preparing to do the same. Once I go on maternity leave, I will NOT be returning to work again. I've been stacking my chips like crazy and preparing myself for my new journey, whatever that may be ❤

[@LadyALCO]

Omg this is story of my life. I was doing makeup in high school, went to nail school and esthi school and felt like I wasnt doing enough so I went for my BS in Accounting. I thought I would be better off financially. But this sh** is a joke. The stress I'm under is crazy. & Underpaid. I wouldve made twice/three more. This 9-5 lifestyle is making me miserable😭😭 I'm so glad that you made this video! Thank you so much❤ Your journey is inspiring to us younger girls who are so lost.

[@amandalewis1247]

Why didnt you open your own business and do nails, makeup and whatever else you went to school for and love? You could generate extra income than the 9-5 and when you feel stable enough with your clientele, leave the 9-5. Just a thought

[@cubanita2011100]

As an accountant, I too was underpaid in corporate America. Opening my own Accounting business helped me make double what I was making in corporate America.

[@PhaMa1002]

Hey Kim! This video came right on time! I’ve been in Corporate HR for 11 years and I’m beyond tired! I’m tired of being one of 2 BW in my department. Tired of being in majority of white spaces. I ready to plan my retirement before I’m 42 and I’m now 37. Huge thank you to you and the subscriber that asked this super important question.

[@Neesha242]

Is HR really that stressful? I heard from people who work in HR and they told me to go for accounting or finance instead

[@caroline9565]

Still in the 21st century being the one of or the onliest will continue to happen as long as the majority of white spaces are in charge in most companies in corporate America. Most could look at working in corporate america if he or she has to and work to live versus living to work.

[@namer580]

@neesha242 Yesss very stressful, imagine having to babysit adults 😂😂

[@courtneyplush3617]

I agree! I just received a promotion only two months ago. Im a team lead with the federal govt and the overwhelming child-like behavior is so mind boggling. It makes working in our public school system for 16 years, dealing with all the students, more understandable. Feels as if i never left most days. Ive already started my own business and looking to grow it enough to leave and never have to look back.

[@meekalynn7726]

I'm in billing and now I'm missing my care for the community (my purpose).

I value topics like this because it’s real and so many of us can relate. What I believe is each of us has a God-given calling and purpose to fulfill. I pray that we all find our way and overcome the self-doubt, distractions, whatever. We were created to do so much more than we can imagine. 🙏🏽

[@komeka7694]

Kim I think this is conformation for me . I'm at a place and age in my life where I know I'm ready to pursue my purpose and live the life I was meant to live. I was born to do more than working a 9-5. Thank you for sharing your journey. ❤🙏🏽

[@meshacalhoun]

Your career path is very similar to mine. I started out with majoring in business management but niched down to accounting. I went into the management trainee program at my 9 to 5, which allowed me to become division audit manager/financial analyst later on. That would open the doors to people, events, and activities that I didn't come from. I too started to get unmotivated after years there. My shift change was when I had my daughter. Being a mom sometimes changes your perspective of your career goals. Now I'm on a complete opposite end of the spectrum. I own a bakery now. It allows me to have the freedom to be a mom, work, and live my life on my own terms. I was able to monetize my youtube channel last year. I've had a creative block this year, but this video is motivating me to get back to it 💙

seeing this video in the midst of my saturn return... it's as if god is speaking to me through you. this is proof that i'm inching closer & closer toward living my dreams. i've achieved success in many areas but find corporate to be incredibly draining & a waste of my potential. i know there are changes i need to make to ensure my dreams are realized & this video came as a gentle nudge. it's ok to want more -- i deserve it!

I know that this video was created because another subscriber requested it, but I promise you it spoke to me and I feel like it was for me. Thank you so much Kim for creating this video, my heart was literally racing the entire time I was watching this video. I kept saying yes yes queen yes, this was for me. Thank you again.

[@coco7591]

This video has helped me tremendously! My name is Kim as well..i will be 48 on the 22nd of this month..If i told you my story you would understand why i needed this.. I am a single mom of 5 great kids. 24,23,23,18 and 11. My oldest will be 25 in February. I have a grandson who is 1. I have already been saying that I want to start a KZbin channel by the end of this year but I had to figure out some things. My passion absolutely hands down is home decor and I i love cooking. When I'm working my 9-5 thats all i think about while working. I have been working for this hospital for 12 years and was in love when I i started. The passion is gone and i feel stuck with no where to grow. I'm more excited than ever now hearing your story.. Thank you for your transparency ❤ You have a beautiful channel. May God continue to bless you with all your heart desires in his will. 🙏🏾

Great motivational video. I followed the traditional path and have become unmotivated and unhappy in corporate America. Now that I am 20 years in, I am afraid to change.

[@rondas7772]

Change, I was 20 yrs in also, couldn't be happier, I made over 100k actually, I saved so I could have a cushion and I love it

[@TheExWife]

Kim!!! I am sooo glad you did this video. I was trying to find one of your old vids where you talked a little about your corporate job and how you got into that particular field. I thought that was so cool and unique. I also watched one of your old vids where someone asked how you got the confidence to put yourself out here on KZbin. You talked about having to deal with negative and hateful comments. I'm so glad you didn't give in and run away. Just imagine all you would be missing. As always, you look stunning and never disappoint. 🥰

[@SKE21]

Thank you for sharing. I am literally in the middle of deciding to quit both of my jobs. I feel like I’m just being taken advantage of. And if I’m going to be working this hard, it should be working for myself and what I want to do.

[@SAYbrinaxo]

Good morning Kim 😊! This message came at the right time.

[@whoisthisbrandinicole2893]

This video was exactly what I needed, so far today I've come across two confirmations videos. I have been feeling so burnt out and unmotivated in the field I am in, I've been working in healthcare since my baby was almost one. She is now almost 12, and I am over it, and throw the pandemic in top of that I am really done. I enjoy so many things and find myself trying to dabble in everything all at once, so I am overwhelming myself with not knowing what my first move should be. But you are 1000% correct, if we want a better quality of life then we need to also have standards in those areas of our lives as well. I've settling and procrastinating with moving on, out of comfort to what I've known for so long and fear. But nope, not anymore I will be making some major moves in the coming months to set myself and my baby up for the rest of our lives. It's never too late to change careers and really do what you want to do. There is so much in the world I would love to see and show her, being at a 9-5 unhappy every damn day is not it.

[@chikFromMTL]

I have been following you since the BackSync days (the OGs know) 🙂 You are an inspiration and I am *finally* making moves toward a more fulfilling life. That corporate life is not worth my sanity, my health, nor my time.

[@crystalfoster9573]

I'm in love with these motivational videos. I go back to them quite often and I really appreciate you for making them.

[@selfcarevoyage]

I completely understand everything you said and I totally agree that sometimes when you are going to make your move, you should do it in silence. Especially if you do not want to be bombarded with questions from people who may or may not mean well, but simply cannot comprehend that times have changed and there are several ways for people to turn their passions into pennies.

[@EarthyGalNails]

It’s being my daily routine to hear other people miracle stories which gives me so much motivation & also let’s me know I’m not full of myself I actually deserve better if I put my mind to .

[@alona724]

I APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH!!!! You keep it real. In a weird way, hard times feel better when you know you aren’t going through them alone.

[@shelbisueno9647]

Happy Sunday everyone! Recently my manager told me I need to find a job that makes me happy. They said I come in on time, I’m dressed appropriately, I do good work, I communicate if I need time off or if something came up at home etc etc. Then they told me I’m “too quiet”. Soft firing. I’m not social enough. Coming in work to work and go home isn’t enough for them. So they are giving me a certain amount of time to find something other. I’ve been in a really low place since then. I’m tired of working for corporate America. I’d rather work for myself I just don’t know how to go about it . Your video and others like it have been popping up more and more. God is trying to tell me something ❤

[@kraziikiim]

I’m very quiet at work too. I’m a nurse. I just do my job and go home. Some of us are just more introverted and people need to understand. As long as someone is doing their work I don’t see the big deal. If you’re not over sharing they find it to be an issue

[@prettylady818]

Consider that a blessing. Collect your unemployment benefits, relax and talk to God about your next move.

[@missfrazier2908]

I have been in this exact same place. I am still this way. I explained to my boss that I am from a big family and talk when necessary. So from my perspective, being BW in certain spaces I do my work, observe and I can promise you that in my role, I know more things that are getting ready to brew because I stay out of the way. I also told my boss, I was raised that I go to work to and not to make friends. He was shocked! I said yes because if it came down to them or me when it came saving the job, they will fight for themselves. He understood my point and said but we are family and I followed up with "no, we work under the same values with one common goal." It bothers people when you don't get involved in mess. Find something that gives you your angel wings of freedom because being punished for not engaging outside of work related things is a form harassment. I'm praying that you find something soon.

[@YolieW]

I am happy to have found this video! I have recently quit the corporate race I have been on for the last 20 years. I know what my passion is and I am looking forward to making what fires me up as a career choice. Thank you.

[@nikkiep23]

Kim this was really good! I remember following you for your thrifting videos. I loved how you transformed thrifted finds into one of kind pieces. You have and are continuing to evolve and l'm so happy for you. I'm a Military veteran and l've been working for the Federal government for over 20 years. Though l've had the opportunity to live abroad and work in different environments and areas, l was finding myself at a cross roads every couple of years until began working for another Federal agancy. I can actually say that l really enjoy my career again. I'm looking forward to retiring early in the next few years and actually doing what l love.

Now, hearing your career journey resembles so much of mine from business degree to the burn out of 8-5 corporate America. I quit my job back in March and I've felt so much relief since. My other stream of income is sustaining me until I figure out some things and God opens the next door.

[@StyleLifeWithJenise]

This video was exactly what I needed. You know how your're sitting in church and you feel like the pastor is talking directly to you; this is how I felt with this video. I have always wanted to start a channel but felt like I was too old but hey, I'm taking a chance and doing it. It really hit home when you said working corporate america and not being able to enjoy life until your too old to do it sort of speak. This is exactly how I feel, I work in corporate america but I want to be able to enjoy it while I still can. Thanks for pushing me. I have been enjoying your channel for years, keep up the good work and congratulations on your continued success.

[@angelawilliams5818]

I am so glad that you did a video on this topic. I have been following you for many years now. But about a year ago I resigned from my job after being there for 18 years. I felt so much relief and doing so was great. But now sometimes I have to fight against my own ego telling me what a mistake I made. Who knew that I was going to feel so much pressure and have so many blocks and challenges of trying to walk in the path that I was called to do. You have inspired me to keep going to see what the end is going to be 😍❤❤‍🔥💯

[@hattiecolley54]

Thank u Kim for Always encouraging Individuals to Live their Lives, especially Young Women. I agree totally. I Did the same thing, and Now I can Truly say, although it seem Far from the Norm, this is the way it Suppose to be. Nothing is more Satisfying than doing what u want and Feeling good about ur choices. I think this is why so many people r so Unhappy about what they do is because they soon realize that they r out of Sync with their Reality. I Appreciate u Always being so Open and Honest about Real Situations vs Reality.

I love her videos. Lady, I am happy for you. Based on what I have seen, I respect you and you are truly blessed. God heard your cry and answered. I will return and rewatch. This is so relevant. Thank you for sharing your story. I am sure this is meaningful for many others as well.

[@alanadundas6112]

My sister shared your video with me and I must say this is encouraging. Appreciate your transparency.

[@cheeksl4914]

Thank you! Very inspirational and uplifting as well. I've been in corporate for about 22 years now and do have a business but haven't got off to a start yet. Just life has been happening hard the last past 3 years and now needing to be ok for my daughter and I but I do want to leave the corporate world soon. I will start to re-evaluate a lot of stuff for change. You are blessed and a beautiful motivational woman!!! Keep doing what you do!❤😊🙏

[@thesword5701]

I so needed to hear this right now. Thank you Kim! ❤

[@myisir]

Yes, Kim this video popped up again. I think I needed this today. I am working on my dream life. I am smiling and getting chills. Thank you so much

[@msbkay]

[@SamariaYvonne]

God will definitely place you in a season(s) to learn what you need to know for the next season. This hits close to home and what I’m straddling the fence and praying about.

[@earthandwater]

I absolutely LOVE this video. It’s exactly what I needed to hear at this time in my life. Thank you

[@elainatart8983]

OMG!! This video is so right on time. I feel this way at my current job and have been feeling this way for a while…Feeling like I just didn’t know where to start so I could make that move but seeing this gives me some insight and direction. Thank You so much for sharing….❤

[@arie897]

I feel you on so many levels. I graduated nursing school in 2018 & QUIT the field ENTIRELY by 2020. I quit with bills due & a son to raise. My mom would say “you’re a nurse you need to go back to nursing”. I would respond to her with sarcasm but seriously with “Am I a nurse? Maybe maybe not. But I can tell you I AM NOT dealing with these facilities with their bad delegation, horrible decisions, under staffing issues and any other bs that goes against my morals”. Still this day she says “you need to go back to nursing”. I am a human being and a millennial-I DO NOT SETTLE FOR LESS BECAUSE I DESERVE MORE.

[@ll9212]

@arie897 I totally get it💜 However look into Home health work as a nurse( it's one on one in the private home of a client... upscale clients if u prefer) Agency or Private Duty...Day Or Evening Shifts Avial( if nothing else Part time)

[@Suddenlyyoufitness]

Your can do traveling nursing as well. THEY MAKE BANK

[@cocomint26]

How are you doing ever since you quit? Once upon a time I was a teacher and quit with bills and my mother said the same thing “go back to teaching” but it was extremely stressful for me and I knew I could work with you just not in the classroom. I spent three years unemployed and went back to college to get a degree in counseling. I have been much happier. You have to do what’s right for you.

[@lavjamsoflocamp]

My friend just started a virtual nursing job. She was done with patient care

[@larketahollingshed561]

You are so inspiring! You’ve been my favorite makeup and hair KZbinr for quite some time! God will continuously bless you!🙏🏽

[@myroyalty100]

You’re truly my cup of tea! Thank you so much for this video ❤God Bless 😊

[@trinandrealewis001]

Praying for your health and strength. Congratulations on your new arrivals. Bless their health and strength. In Jesus Christ name. Amen ❤

[@phenomenallyjade6453]

This is exactly what I needed to hear… I’ve been battling with it I should quit my job and go for what I’m passionate about and after having a near death experience I really see myself and my life in a totally different way now… I want to experience more not only for myself but for my son as well… I believe god gives us signs on how you should move forward and this is my sign thank you 🙏🏾 ❤

[@koydeliaLee]

Out of all the times I’ve heard this question asked this is the absolute best way I’ve heard it broken down. As I start my KZbin journey while working a 9-5 I dread I appreciate this advice and aspire to have that same confidence you exude so eloquently ❤❤

[@theresaforte2202]

Great video! Yes I used to watch your hair videos years ago! So I was excited when I stumbled upon your channel again about 4 years ago!

[@christiethomas8224]

I absolutely love this...This is what I am doing now trying to figure out what I want to and where I need to go and eventually have several different business under My belt.this makes me feel great knowing this something that is possible for me to attain and I am so glad that I have watched some with so much positivity and class and you carry your self so well

[@Jessica.605]

Thank you for making this video. I'm in the process of setting up my space so I can discover what I like and I already have something in mind 🙏🏾

[@anjealin259]

Thank you for sharing your story. Unfortunately, many of us don’t have that example or mentor to talk to and we have to learn along the way. That’s one of the reasons I offer coaching services 😊

[@Flowerbomb0506]

Agreed I learned along the way I didn’t have a mentor in sight . I come from a family full of women and not one was a example or the reason for where I am today, I give all that credit and praise to the LORD! 😊

[@detraed8962]

What a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing!🙂

[@tiffanyevans8084]

This video is very inspiring, especially for people who like/love this platform. I can relate to so much of your journey, like so many others in the comments. I wish us well! The lack of joy in our "work" is harming us. I wish us well!

[@CoCoLiShuZ]

Great video and great advice! Happy for your come up! I believe that what’s meant to happen, will happen with hard work and determination! 💪🏽

[@gloriaharrison6346]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! This is a great encouragement for me, needed to hear this, at this time.

[@msbarbados68]

This is beautiful, thank you for sharing, just what I needed to hear!

[@kimmyjo52]

Great video!! Thanks for sharing! I’m already a business owner and have experienced what you talked about but your video validated me and encouraged me to keep pushing! 🙌🏽

[@latanya2271]

I really Needed this video. Approaching 20 yrs at my job and not quite sure what my next steps are…but Definitely stepping out of that company!! Thank you!

[@livelifelearn3923]

Kim, thank you so much for this video! I’ve been watching your videos for years and connected with your content no matter what the topic is! I also wanted to know about your journey to success. This gives me confirmation to really get 100% serious and focus on building my business.

[@user-ve4rq7pu1b]

I am so thankful for this video! Your timing with this one was perfect for me. Thank you so much for the inspiration and yes, can we keep the conversation going!! More videos about this plz❤

[@zoheret15]

This was a very inspiring video and chock full of gems to ponder on. Thank you for sharing your story.

[@me-pz5yi]

Thank you Kim. You’re an inspiration ❤️.

[@Naswillshine]

This was good! Thanks for sharing your story. I’ve watched you forever , I think before 2010 even . It’s great to see that following your passions can pay off.

[@moniquesj]

I am currently in the same position. I am truly grateful for my job, but for the past couple of months, I have dreaded coming into the office. There is no motivation and I have no desire to be here anymore or to build someone else’s dream. Underpaid and on a hamster wheel. It’s not fulfilling at all.

[@TheMissPretty]

Thank you for sharing. I really needed to hear this!!❤🎉

[@marjoriecoleman8280]

Kim your story is soo inspirational, I’m happy that you’re living the life that you’ve dreamed about. You seem to be more at peace while doing something that you love! Sometimes we have to create our own path & never settle. I’m on a journey now to leave my job of nine years. It’s not even what I went to school for, I have a degree in Criminal Justice. I know my dream job is in my immediate future, I’m just gonna trust God to lead me there. Tfs ❤

[@wombmenempowerment]

Thank you for sharing! Beautiful message ❤

[@monacannon6644]

Great video! I've been a follower of your channel for some time, and I rarely comment. I can soooo relate to this. I decided to let go of my job because of the stress as well and that feeling of fulfilling someone else dream. It was the best decision I ever made. Thank you for sharing this it was super encouraging. 👍

[@ohlchica9959]

This is so motivating, I really needed this. Thank you!
