From Addiction to Changing the World with Kim Carter Monuments to Me
-
- Society & Culture
We are moving mountains in this week’s episode with Kim Carter. She is a Top 10 CNN Hero, Founder and Ambassador for Time for Change Foundation, President & CEO of Center for Housing Advancement and Motivational Projects (CHAMP), author of Waking Up To My Purpose, and a proud Black woman in America. But none of that came easy.
Kim shares how she overcame homelessness, incarceration, addiction, and more and found a way to better herself in a system that perpetuates inequality. She opens up about her journey of going through the worst of the worst, to finding her purpose of helping other Black women by creating resources that empower disenfranchised individuals, starting programs to help women like her, and building communities where Black women are centered to help them thrive.
More importantly, through doing, living, existing, and being enough for herself, Kim shows that the rest of us don’t have to do anything extra, nor do we have to endure the pain and trauma, to be deserving of love, care, and protection. She challenges us to know that we are enough as we are. If you are looking for motivation to step into your power, advice for facing imposter syndrome, or a sign to know that you, as a Black woman, are enough, tune in to get fired up.
