Kim Gilson was born to be a teacher. As far back as she can remember, she played school in her room, teaching dolls and stuffed animals from a chalkboard, and holding parent/teacher conferences with those who struggled. As she grew older, the stuffed animals became real students, to whom she taught band and then math. As her career in public education blossomed, Kim learned her passion was teaching adults, making difficult topics easier to understand and enjoying laughter in the process.
The sudden loss of her husband, Paul, to a blood clot in 2014 sent her on a personal journey of grief and a battle to reclaim joy in her life for her and her sons. Wanting to share her zeal for life with others, she became a certified Zig Ziglar trainer, speaker, and coach. After retiring from public education in 2022, she felt a calling to utilize her teaching and speaking skills to revitalize the hearts, minds, and dreams of people, activating them towards fulfilling their God-given purpose.
Kim lives in Midlothian, Texas with her 2 dogs, Duchess and Cosmo. Her sons, Trent and Cade, have grown into fine young men pursuing their own dreams. She and her husband, Don, enjoy traveling across Texas to take selfies in front of its many courthouses. Kim approaches everything in life with passion and humor, and her hatred of kale is legendary. She attends Harvest Hill Church, where she’s a member of the preaching team.
