    Resilience, Reinvention, and the Power of Connection with Kim Cullen-Black

    Resilience, Reinvention, and the Power of Connection with Kim Cullen-Black

    Fashion Design to "Financial Design"; a powerful and unexpected pivot.
    20 years into her design career at the renowned handbag company, Coach, Kim Cullen Black had just purchased a house when she was laid off.  
    In a family of 5 siblings, Kim was the one who was "just jobless", when their father passed away.  Every one of the other 4 was going through major health crises - either their own or their spouses.  It fell to Kim to help her mom pick up the pieces and figure out where she stood financially.
    "Have you ever considered being a financial planner?"
    It was a question posed to her by the female financial planner she and her mom were working with. Kim gave a decisive "NO". 
    Kim and I dive into the inspiring journey of resilience and reinvention amidst life's challenges. Kim, a financial advisor with roots in the design and creative industry, shares her personal narrative of feeling overlooked and discarded, only to emerge stronger and more determined than ever.

    We explore her transition from the design world to financial advising, highlighting the creativity and problem-solving skills that shape her approach to numbers-driven fields.

    Kim's insights from her own experiences underscore the importance of empathy in financial advising and navigating life's uncertainties. As our discussion unfolds, we reflect on the transformative power of connection and the capacity for growth and reinvention at any age. I am deeply grateful to Kim for sharing her story.

JanetBarrett ,

I’M NOT DEAD!

Thank you Kamrin! Your community and podcast are bringing some much needed light to ageism and women. I was honored to be a guest on your show, and have continued to listen to all your guests stories and have been able to bring so many of the tools they have developed from their lived experience into my own life. We might be 50 (or older) but we are definitely NOT DEAD!

paschann ,
