Please pass on to Kim my deep appreciation for her presentation. We discussed it at length afterwards and the overall feedback was very positive. Many placed her as the best presenter we have had this year. Words they used to describe the presentation and Kim included: Very good/Powerful/Knew how to tune into each person/Excels at this/ the 5 Action Steps are a great tool. Kim did a great job and it worked very well in setting up further discussions on accountability as well.

During one of her talks, she did a live coaching session with a volunteer. I was sitting on the edge of my seat wondering how she was going to handle each challenge on the spot, but she knew exactly what to say and how to say it. It was super clear that Kim is not only a great speaker, but knows her stuff as both an experienced coach and someone who trains coaches. After I saw her speak, I hired her to be my personal coach and to speak for Entrepreneurs’ Organization.

My TEC groups are working on raising their leadership team performance – Kim Ades provided several powerful coaching insights and tools for CEO's and senior executives that clarified the influence of beliefs on behaviour and the #1 role of the leader to align beliefs with goals. Kim also provided a 5 step coaching process that leaders can directly apply to unpack limiting beliefs that are holding back their leadership teams from achieving true high performance.

Every once in awhile, you get an expert guest who is so good that you feel compelled to just hand the entire radio hour over to her. It’s rare, but it does happen. That would be Kim Ades of Frame of Mind Coaching™. Kim is so insightful and enlightening that she can transform anyone in just a matter of minutes. Drawing upon her own experiences and wisdom, she has a knack for showing others how to look within for their own inspiration. Oh, and she’s funny to boot.

As a podcast producer and host, I’ve interviewed over 700 guests, including New York Times Bestselling Authors, self-help gurus and Academy Award Winners. Kim Ades was definitely a standout guest for me. I had her on all of my podcasts, and it was a wonderful experience.
Doug Foresta

For anyone looking to have Kim Ades on their podcast as a possible interviewee, I highly, highly recommend it. I had an amazing time interviewing her. Very rarely do I have guests that you can throw literally any question at them and they answer it; not like, “oh I read this book…” and they regurgitate some answer, but from experience. If there’s anyone out there that is looking for an unbelievable interview, I highly recommend Kim Ades.

I was fortunate enough to see Kim present at a Strategic Human Resources conference in a room of 900 people. I don’t think there was a dry eye in the room. She has a way of getting to the heart of things and touching people in a very human way that is irresistible and that you can’t help but relate to.
