Kim started in retail management at 17, moved into luxury retail at Harrods, then walked away from it entirely to build a property business from scratch with no money or contacts, and has since become a holistic property mentor and intuitive coach, working with the person behind the business as much as the business itself.

In this episode, Danielle and Lauren talk to Kim about what it cost her to be the person who always had the answer, at Harrods, in her business, and in motherhood, long before she was able to let any of it go. She's honest about the panic attacks that came out of nowhere, the police van that picked her up off a London street, and the six-figure property disaster that hit at the same time her son spent months in and out of hospital.

It's a conversation about what happens when your body starts telling you what you won't say out loud, hair loss, eczema, exhaustion, and about the very deliberate work it took to go from needing to hold everything to trusting that letting go might be the thing that actually lets it grow.

Topics covered:

• A career that moved from retail management at 17, to running departments at Harrods, to building a property business from nothing
• Memorising every detail, from a Cadbury's Creme Egg barcode to every property address, and where that need to know everything came from
• The panic attacks that started on the Underground, then in her own office, then on a London street where a police van eventually picked her up
• Being put on medication and going through depression without knowing, at the time, what either of those things meant
• Learning to be more selfish, and why she now manages her diary around energy instead of time
• Becoming a medical mum when her son was born with complex medical needs, and stepping back from the business she'd built with her husband
• The property flip that flooded and cost six figures, at the same time her son spent months in hospital
• The hair loss and eczema that showed up before she understood how much stress she was actually carrying
• Discovering that letting go of the business didn't break it, and asking whether she'd been in the way all along
• What intuitive coaching actually is, and learning to trust her gut over her plan
