…Empowering Women Through Photography and Storytelling
Kim uses her lens to reflect the beauty she sees in every woman, helping them rediscover self-confidence and express their unique essence. Through her photography sessions, Kim helps women feel seen, celebrated, and empowered to present themselves authentically to the world.

The Art of the P.A.U.S.E. Method
As a mindfulness advocate, Kim created the Art of the P.A.U.S.E., a signature method that teaches women how to:
Slow down and turn inward
Cultivate creativity and intuition
Find peace and joy
Release fears, judgments, and limiting beliefs
This mindful approach supports personal growth, emotional healing, and deeper self-awareness.

Born to Rise: A Movement for Women’s Voices
Born to Rise™ is not just Kim’s brand — it’s her mission and passion. She believes that when women rewrite the stories that hold them back, they heal, unlock their greatest potential, and become powerful leaders in their own lives. By sharing their stories, women foster connection, empathy, and understanding, bridging divides and building more compassionate communities.
Kim is especially passionate about amplifying women’s voices, bringing balance to narratives that have historically been shaped by men. Women’s stories often center around community, collaboration, and compassion — essential themes for healing the planet and creating a more inclusive future.
Personal Journey and Published Work
Kim’s personal story also influences her work. As a mother of three, including one adopted child who Kim calls her greatest spiritual teacher, she understands the power of compassion, patience, and deep connection. Her award-winning book, “Finding,” chronicles her profound journey with her son and the Dalai Lama, offering readers a moving reflection on love, resilience, and personal transformation.
