A year ago, Kim Scott found herself in an all-encompassing funk.
Nothing was going right. Issues with family were popping up, friendships were coming apart at the seams, and she was totally unsatisfied with her job.
She vaguely remembered a time, too long ago, that she had mojo — when she was vibrant and alive and full of energy — but hadn’t connected with that version of herself in so long, it was hard to believe she’d ever existed.
In this month’s new interview with a normal person, my former client Kim and I got into how she went from totally groove-less to getting her groove back in less than a year.
Listen in as we talk about…
- How she lost her groove in the first place and found herself overwhelmed by problems,
- Some major signs that you’ve lost your energy and zest for life,
- The most important thing to do every day if you want to deeply enjoy life again,
- Some really fun and inspiring stories about what’s happening for Kim now that she’s turned things around.
Leave a comment below after you’ve listened to share how Kim’s journey resonated with you!
MORE ABOUT KIM
Kim has always been open to taking risks and isn’t afraid to step out and try new things. She joined the Army at 17, moved to Dallas when she got out, and made a life for herself without knowing anyone personally. All she knew was that she had a cousin there, and figured she’d make it work!
Kim was pulled into project management in 2016 and really liked it. But after getting PMP certified and leaving that employer, things still weren’t glamorous. After reaching a breaking point, she reached out to Clarity on Fire (after listening for years!). Like many at the beginning of coaching, Kim had family issues, work issues, and the isolation from Covid hadn’t helped.
Today, Kim is at a much better organization. She may not be 100% in love with her work, but knows that the career journey is a never-ending cycle, so she’s ready to keep taking risks in this new phase of life and use the tools she learned while working with Rachel to move onwards and upwards.

It’s almost time for our next round of coaching enrollment — that small window, a few times per year, when take on new coaching clients!
We’ll be accepting applications starting next Friday, January 20!
You’re the right person to work with us if:
🔥 You know that getting a better job (or partner, or more money, or whatever) isn’t going to turn you into a brand-new person…
🔥 BUT, you believe that becoming a brand-new version of yourself will get you a better career (or partner, or more money, or whatever).
🔥 And, you’re done with figuring things out on your own. If you knew how to solve all of your problems, you’d have done it already!
🔥 AND you want some serious accountability — an expert to guide you through the changes you need to make and make SURE it actually sticks.
