Real Talk with Katie Kim

Katie Kim

Real Talk with Katie Kim is where high-performing women stop playing small—and start building wealth as they mean it. You’ve built something real. You’ve worked your tail off. You’re not looking for hype—you’re looking for a safe, smart way to expand. Without taking on more risk. Without giving up control. Without losing what you’ve built. This isn’t about real estate. It’s about strategy. It’s about owning your next move with clarity, confidence, and capital that works for you—not the other way around. Each episode peels back the curtain on the plays nobody’s talking about—how to scale your business, buy the building, and build a legacy… without drowning in debt or getting played by people who don’t get it. Because real power? It is owning the ground you walk on. So if you've ever said, “I want to expand, but I’m not going into more debt to do it,” or “If someone could show me how to do this strategically, I’d move tomorrow”— This is your seat at the table. Welcome to Real Talk with Katie Kim. Let’s build something that lasts. LET'S GO!

    Ep. 27: From Law to Location Freedom: How She Used Leverage Without Losing Control

    Most women aren’t afraid of hard work. They’re afraid of making the wrong move with money — of locking themselves into a deal they can’t unwind. In this episode, Katie Kim sits down with Stephanie Cabral, real estate investor, operator, and creator of PAM — an AI-powered maintenance platform built for owners who value control and clarity. Stephanie didn’t chase real estate. She sequenced her way into it — using leverage intentionally, building guardrails early, and prioritizing systems over stress. Learn more about PAM here:👉https://choosepam.ai/ This conversation is about:- Using leverage without losing control- Why your first deal needs more guardrails, not fewer- When to say no — even to “good” deals- The hidden cost of self-managing without systems- Why financial freedom happens in levels, not leaps This is not hype.This is what strategic growth actually looks like. 👉If you’re ready to think like an owner, start here.

    Ep. 26: You’re Not Behind—You’re Poorly Positioned: Why Growth Feels Harder at the Next Level

    If growth feels heavier right now, you’re not behind—you’re entering a new level. In this episode of Real Talk with Katie Kim, Katie explains why focus gets harder before it gets clearer, especially for high-performing women who are scaling businesses, wealth, and leadership. This is not a mindset conversation. It’s a strategic one. Katie breaks down:- Why you’re not supposed to know the rules of the next level yet- How action without position creates pressure- What strategic women do differently when growth feels uncertain- The one foundational tool she uses every year before making capital decisions- She’s also offering a birthday gift: access to her Personal Financial Statement module for just $47—designed to help you enter February grounded instead of guessing. If leadership has started to feel reactive instead of strategic, it’s not a motivation problem — it’s a positioning problem. When you don’t clearly know your financial position, every decision costs more energy than it should. That’s when capable women start second-guessing moves they’re fully qualified to make. 🔍 I’ve made my Personal Financial Statement (PFS) available with a February-only discount so you can see your position clearly — without judgment, pressure, or guesswork. 👉 Access it here (Feb 2026 discount applied):https://www.katiekim.com/offers/67dZq... 💬 Or comment “PFS” below and I’ll send it to you directly. ⏱ TIMESTAMPS:00:00 – Welcome to Real Talk: Slowing Down to Lead Better00:14 – Why Focus Gets Harder Right Before You Level Up00:47 – Nothing Is Wrong With You (Strategic Focus, Not Hustle)01:09 – You’re Not Supposed to Know How to Operate Here Yet01:30 – Why High-Performing Women Personalize Discomfort02:00 – Strategic Focus Is About Position, Not Doing More02:26 – Action Without Position Creates Pressure02:53 – The 3-Step Strategic Reset (Clarity Before Action)03:22 – Katie’s Birthday Gift: The $47 PFS Positioning Tool03:51 – How the PFS Changes Decisions and Reduces Noise04:18 – From Reacting to Leading at the Next Level04:44 – National Women Investor Month: What’s Coming in February05:11 – Enter February Grounded Instead of Guessing05:33 – You’re Not Behind—You’re Learning a New Level05:55 – Share This With the Woman Who Needs Clarity06:15 – Book a Call: Finding the Smartest Next Move06:35 – Important Disclaimer & Final Notes 🔗 Connect with Katie Kim 🌐 Website:https://www.katiekim.com – The Katie Kim Educational Platformhttps://www.thekimgroup.com – The Kim Group 📱 Instagram:@thekatiekim@thekimgroup 💼 LinkedIn:Katie Arnholt Kim, CCIMThe Katie Kim Educational PlatformThe Kim Group 📘 Facebook:The Katie Kim Educational PlatformThe Kim Group #StrategicFocus#WomenInBusiness#RealEstateStrategy#FinancialClarity#WealthBuilding#WomenEntrepreneurs#LeadershipDevelopment

    Ep. 25: Why Focus Feels Hard - When You Don’t Know Your Financial Position

    If focus feels harder than it should — even with success, systems, and discipline — this episode explains why. Focus doesn’t break down because you lack willpower. It breaks down when you’re making decisions without a clear financial position. Without context, every decision feels heavier, riskier, and more exhausting than it needs to be. In this episode, Katie Kim breaks down the difference between productivity and strategic focus, why clarity stabilizes leadership, and how understanding your financial position moves you from reacting like an operator to deciding like an owner. If you don’t clearly know your financial position, every decision costs more energy than it should. 🔍 I’ve made my Personal Financial Statement (PFS) available with a February-only discount so you can see your position clearly — without judgment, pressure, or guesswork. 👉 Access it here (Feb 2026 discount applied):https://www.katiekim.com/offers/67dZqE3V?coupon_code=PFS-FEB2026 💬 Or comment “PFS” below and I’ll send it to you directly. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Why focus feels hard after success00:24 – Feeling unsettled doesn’t mean you’re failing01:03 – Strategic focus vs. productivity01:30 – Why financial position creates noise everywhere else01:55 – Focus without context becomes exhausting02:18 – Focus is decision-making from clarity, not pressure02:47 – When success still feels internally unsettled03:07 – “That’s not a focus problem.

    Ep. 24: Clarity is the Growth Strategy: Why Focus Beats Expansion at Every Level

    If your business is working—but feels heavier than it used to—you didn’t fail. You outgrew the structure. In this solo episode of Real Talk with Katie Kim, Katie pulls back the curtain on a truth many high-performing women business owners face at their next level: growth doesn’t break your business—unfocused growth does. This episode is about focus—not as limitation, but as control. Katie shares how The Kim Group revisited its own clarity while pursuing a bold, long-term vision, why complexity is earned but cannot become a hiding place, and how intentional focus becomes the most powerful growth strategy available. Through real client stories and lived experience, she explains why adding more offers, services, or “shiny squirrels” often dilutes momentum—and how an assessment-first approach creates calm, confidence, and bank-ready clarity. This isn’t about doing more.It’s about doing what matters—clearly, intentionally, and with confidence. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 – 00:27 Focus forces honesty (why clarity is uncomfortable first)00:27 – 00:48 This isn’t about doing more (it’s doing the right thing on purpose)00:48 – 01:20 The Kim Group BHAG (2045 vision + why it matters)01:20 – 01:42 If people can’t explain what you do, it’s a focus problem01:42 – 02:33 Unfocused growth costs more than intentional focus02:33 – 02:56 The quiet danger of going wider too soon02:56 – 03:51 2015 reset + why Jeff Staeker’s Bakery mattered03:51 – 04:33 Red carpet, full-service support (and why that can overwhelm)04:33 – 05:19 Scarcity mindset: “If I focus, I’ll lose opportunity”05:19 – 06:17 Getting the meeting + the 5–10 year vision question06:17 – 07:23 Custom roadmap + the “bathing suit conversation” (bear it all)07:23 – 08:04 Why banks say no: you can’t get financed without clarity on paper08:04 – 08:44 Shiny squirrels + clarity comes from subtraction08:44 – 09:32 Accountability call: profitable core got diluted09:32 – 11:04 If it feels heavier: did you break it or outgrow it?11:04 – 11:42 The calls Katie gets: crisis, urgency, and brand clarity11:42 – 13:16 Holiday story: mold issue, 48-hour turnaround, and “path to peace”13:16 – 14:23 The “I’m already pregnant” call + the “crazy or brilliant” idea call14:23 – 15:34 Access without structure doesn’t scale Letting go, SOPs, and accountability15:34 – 16:33 How the assessment focus was born16:33 – 18:45Why founders feel alone at the next level18:45 – 20:50 The assessment isn’t a quiz or gimmick Why it’s being beta-tested20:50 – 22:30 The questions most people skip22:30 – 24:55 Economic incentives + client example24:55 – 26:27 Roadmap framework: feasibility signals + bank-ready steps26:27 – 27:42 Meeting you where you are (and helping you come back prepared)27:42 – 29:46 City workshops: strategy + incentives + case studies29:46 – 30:48 Invitation: take the beta assessment + reclaiming Main Street30:48 – 31:44 Closing: focus is control + share with a woman at the edge of growth31:44 – 32:45 Community CTA + book a call (clarity aligned with goals, numbers, life)32:45 – 33:25 Legal/financial disclaimer (risk + consult licensed professionals) 🔗 Connect with Katie Kim 🌐 Website:https://www.katiekim.com – The Katie Kim Educational Platformhttps://www.thekimgroup.com – The Kim Group 📱 Instagram:@thekatiekim@thekimgroup 💼 LinkedIn:Katie Arnholt Kim, CCIMThe Katie Kim Educational PlatformThe Kim Group 📘 Facebook:The Katie Kim Educational PlatformThe Kim Group #WomenInBusiness#StrategicGrowth#BusinessClarity#WomenEntrepreneurs#CalmGrowth#LeadershipDevelopment#RealEstateStrategy#EconomicIncentives#ScaleWithControl#RealTalkWithKatieKim
