Kimberly is also a dynamic and gifted workshop leader, blogger, and author on a mission to help and support others in their journey to be their best selves. As a Reiki Master, grief mentor, and birth and bereavement doula, Kimberly provides insight, non-judgmental support, and facilitation of healing of the mind, body, and soul. She has had the honor of supporting others through their greatest joys and their deepest sorrows, providing comfort, insight, and unwavering support. Kimberly doesn't just talk the talk, she walks the walk; on a path no one ever wants to go down. The same one you are on now. She is also a bereaved parent, losing her 3-year old daughter Meggie to a furniture tip-over accident in 2004. Kimberly has turned the tragic loss of her own daughter into a passionate and successful world-wide advocacy campaign dedicated to child safety, Meghan's Hope, known around the world as a go-to resource for tip-over prevention and child safety. Her blog post, Be with Me. Just for Today, went viral and opened the eyes of millions of people around the world to the pain of losing a child, and compelling them to take action to make their own homes safer. Her compassionate, insightful, knowledgeable, and nurturing support is a gift to anyone struggling with the roller coaster of emotions associated with loss and grief.

Her work has been published in several trade magazines and she also blogs for a local newspaper on home and child safety. Kimberly has presented at both local and national conferences and has been interviewed by numerous media outlets. When she is not working as a physical therapist, teaching, writing, or taking her boys to a soccer practice or game, she enjoys running 5K's with her family, snacking on chocolate, playing games with friends and family, sitting quietly with a cup of tea and watching the birds, and ballroom dancing with the love of her life, her husband, Joe.
