54: Kiss My Boundaries w/ Real Talk Kim: Get up! Seriously, you may find it hard to sit down while listening to this episode, because Pastor Kimberly Jones knows how to motivate. Welcome back! Today, this wordsmith, pastor, mother, speaker and author, better known as Real Talk Kim, is here to share her story with our listeners. We could further hype up Kim in our own words, but we think her endless supply of quotables is perfect for setting the stage for this podcast: “Thieves don’t rob empty vaults.” - If people are trying to tear you down, it’s NOT because you’re worthless. It’s because you have something they don’t. Kim talks about keeping your perspective when the haters strike. “Sometimes, God has to break your spirit to save your soul.” - Kim talks about the painful parts of self-transformation. The larger plan for your life isn’t always easy, but it is always worth it. “Don’t look at all the red flags and act like it’s a carnival.” - Trust your gut! Don’t ignore signs of toxic by Harder Than Life
