The Kim Gravel Show

This week, I'm diving into a topic that impacts us all: change. Whether it’s financial, health-related, or about relationships, how you handle change matters. In this episode, I explore effective ways to manage anxiety during transitions and how I look at change as an opportunity for growth. Zac and I will share strategies to help you shift from a reactive mindset to one that embraces challenges as steps toward your higher purpose. If you’ve ever felt stuck, this episode will show you how to turn every challenge into a chance to propel yourself forward so you can love who you are no matter what's happening around you. In this episode: Why I always see change as a good thing Our default response to change How to navigate fear and anxiety that comes with change The importance of defining your legacy How to approach change with a design mindset How to view change as expansion and a positive opportunity Here is my favorite quote from this episode: “If you are going through a change and you're feeling anxiety or that "undoneness", that's a good place to be.” - Kim Gravel Do you want to hear your voice on the show?

It’s week 3 of the summer of success and I’m sharing my secret for moving toward your goals 7X faster. It’s not complicated, but it can be very hard to do. So this week I'm breaking down the barriers, and deep diving into the art of decision-making, and how it can turbocharge your success.  I’m here to remind you that your time and attention has more value than you think. Time is money y’all. You can tell me that’s a cliché, but it’s also completely true. The time you spend not taking action has a huge cost. Making even the small decisions toward your goals every day can fast-track your success, and lead to unbelievable results.  Most of us over estimate how much we can do in a day and underestimate what we can achieve in a year. Your small actions will grow. I want you to take one small or medium size action every day for the next seven days. Once you make those decisions you've been avoiding then you will see your life transform! Taking action is the key to success even if the action you take isn’t perfect. You can do it, and we can do it together so don't miss this episode of The Kim Gravel Show.  Do you want to hear your voice on the show?

The incredibly talented Paul Scheer is on the show, and this week’s episode is like a Netflix binge of life lessons served with a side of laughter and an extra helping of wisdom. Paul is an actor, podcaster, and comedian who you’ll recognize from shows like Fresh Off The Boat, Veep, The League, and Black Monday. He wrote a fantastic and funny new book called Joyful Recollections of Trauma, about the lessons he learned from his difficult childhood. Paul has an incredible gift for using comedy and joy to engage with difficult issues like abuse and divorce. His perspective is inspiring and funny as we discuss topics like navigating childhood traumas, finding joy in the simple things (hello, Dairy Queen Blizzard!), and the transformative power of accepting yourself. Paul’s ability to find the joy and laughter in his harrowing past is a masterclass in resilience and reframing perspective. You can’t miss this episode of The Kim Gravel Show. My favorite quote this week: "You don't know how weird your childhood is and how weird these things are until you put them in front of other people" - Paul Scheer Do you want to hear your voice on the show?

I want this episode to give you the confidence you need to stop preparing and start winging it. It won’t be perfect but if will be perfectly you, and you’re beautiful. There is freedom in recognizing the value of your own unique perspective and purpose, and I want you to be free from the excuses that stopped you in the past. Once you recognize how incredible your contribution already is, the sky is the limit.  I’ve met a lot of very successful people, and I’ve seen first-hand that the more real and authentic you are, the more successful you can become. I put Martha Stewart in that category as someone who is living her purpose. She’s a hero of mine and you’ll have the listen to the episode to hear the wild thing I said on stage in front of her in order to get her attention. Oh boy did I get it. Don’t miss this episode of The Kim Gravel Show. My favorite quote this week: "I want to talk to you about purpose in a way that is unprepared. I want you to start winging it" -Kim Do you want to hear your voice on the show? Call me and leave me a voicemail at 404-913-6460 and let me know why you love who you are!
