Manage episode 491210496 series 3654798
In this episode of Founders Future, host Ammar Elm sits down with Dr. Kimberly Jackson, MCC, founder of Coach Kimberly International and pioneer in executive leadership coaching. With 33 years in business and mentorship from legends like Dr. Stephen Covey, Kimberly shares her journey from corporate America to building a global coaching empire that’s worked with Tesla, the CDC, and the Department of Defense. She reveals how she’s democratizing coaching through AI, her "fail forward" philosophy, and why she’s on a mission to transform coaching from a "perk or punishment" into a must-have for leaders navigating today’s mental health and burnout crises.
Kimberly dives into her legacy-focused vision—advancing women in leadership, bridging the gap between human potential and AI, and her Coachpreneur School for coaches who want to think like CEOs. From her $100K+ lessons in scaling (and scaling back) to why referrals outperform social media growth, this episode is packed with hard-won wisdom for founders who want to build businesses that outlast them.
