    112: My Top Business, Leadership, and Personal Lessons in 2025
    2025/12/24
    As the year comes to a close, Kimberly takes a more personal turn on the podcast. In this Christmas Eve episode, she shares live reflections on 2025—a year marked by maintenance, hard leadership decisions, deep love, and profound loss. Breaking her lessons into three core areas—business, leadership, and personal—Kimberly offers an honest look at what it really means to keep going, trust yourself, and allow life to change you. This episode is about redefining success during a slower year, reclaiming leadership authority instead of outsourcing it, and navigating profound joy and loss at the same time. Recorded as a real-time reflection and released on Christmas Eve, this conversation is raw, grounded, and deeply human. What You'll Learn in this Episode:
    • Why "maintenance years" still count as success in business
    • How to reframe slower seasons as rest, not failure
    • The difference between delegating decisions and delegating leadership
    • Why avoiding hard decisions costs more than making them
    • Lessons on love, grief, faith, and staying open after loss
    ChatGPT Prompt Mentioned in the episode: Based upon the conversations I've had with you in 2025, what would you say my business, leadership, and personal lessons this year would be? I'd love 2-4 bullet points with a 2-3 sentence summary of why you said this for each area. Stay In Touch → Connect with the community:
