Sari Swears Podcast | Season 8, Ep. 2: From Homelessness to Owning Her Own Law Firm - Special Guest Kim Valentine
Description
This week's episode is a little different.
Raw. Real. And one of the MOST powerful stories we've ever shared on the podcast.
I sat down with the incredible Kim Valentine — a powerhouse trial attorney who went from being homeless…
To someone who now walks into the courtroom fully expressed, fully embodied, and fully herself. 💖
Her story WILL move you.
Because it's not just about becoming a lawyer.
It's about becoming the version of yourself you were always meant to be — before the trauma, the chaos, and the noise told you otherwise.
We talk about:
👉🏽 Why dissociation and success often go hand-in-hand
👉🏽 The grief no one warns you about when you start healing
👉🏽 Reclaiming your voice, your body, and your right to be seen
Kim doesn't sugarcoat anything.
She swears. She cries. She tells the truth.
And by the end of this episode, you'll be reminded that you can rebuild too — no matter where you started.
Tune in NOW! 🎧
Love,
Sari 💖

"I used to think being strong meant not feeling anything. But the truth is, strength is being willing to feel everything — the grief, the shame, the regret — and still get back up. That's what makes you powerful in the courtroom. Not the performance. The presence."
