For years, Kim Murphy said yes to everything and everyone until burnout, exhaustion, and a deep sense of invisibility made it impossible to keep going. That turning point became the start of a new chapter, one rooted in healing, boundaries, and the radical act of putting herself first.

Now an Empowerment Coach and Trauma Release Practitioner, Kim helps women 50+ reclaim their worth, heal from emotional burnout, and rediscover the joy they thought they’d lost. Through It’s A Wonderful Life Coaching, she offers transformative programs and self-care tools that prove it’s never too late to start over or start saying “Yes” to yourself.

In this episode, we talk about the courage it takes to embrace the journey (even when it’s not a straight path), the role resilience plays in entrepreneurship, and why surrounding yourself with the right mentors and communities can change everything. If you’ve ever felt stuck, exhausted, or invisible, Kim’s story is the reminder that you can rewrite your next chapter, starting now.

What happens when the person who used to work for you becomes the one you trust to build everything with?

In this episode, we meet Ryo (Uyen Phuong Wu) and Allison (Xuan Yen Nhi Le), a visionary duo who went from boss and employee to co-founders of COOCO. COOCO is an AI-powered platform that maximizes food in your fridge to reduce food waste, save money, and cook smarter at home. They are uncovering the proverbial "Elephant in the Kitchen" we are all talking about. Especially in this economy and era of sustainability. Ryo & Allison quietly helped scale some of Asia’s biggest startup unicorns to rallying over 200,000 people around their own idea pre-launch

We dive into what it really means to bet on someone’s potential, what it takes to grow from colleagues to co-founders, and the emotional rollercoaster of stepping out of the shadows of other people’s companies to finally create your own. If you’ve ever wondered when to make the leap or who to build with this episode is for you.

Sometimes, a setback is just the setup for your purpose.

We sit down with Monique Thompson, founder of Modeen Events, who turned an unexpected layoff into a life-changing leap into entrepreneurship. Born in Jamaica and raised in Hamilton, Monique’s path was always sprinkled with creativity and community. But it wasn’t until life gave her a pause that she finally answered the call to build something of her own. What started as a long-standing passion evolved into Modeen Events, a company known for its elegant, joyful, and highly personalized celebrations.

Monique shares the deep discipline, unshakable faith, and tenacity it took to step into her calling. From community roots to corporate galas, she’s proving that you can bring your own sparkle to every room and leave a lasting impression doing it.
