Hi, I’m Kim Adams
I help solopreneurs and small business owners discover greater self-awareness, psychological well-being and confidence in business and in life.
After spending over 20 years working in criminal justice I realised I started to question my purpose and my self-identity. On the outside I was capable, calm and confident. On the inside I was chronically anxious, feeling disconnected, lonely and with a deep yearning for purpose.
