Kim feels privileged with the work that she does at MYOB, one of the fastest growing businesses, a business that shapes a big part of who she is.

Knowing that community is a central part of connection and that it is within communities and business that fuel you, Kim reflects on the waves of life and how important communities, connection and family have been to making her the woman she is today.

Kim grew up immersed in business with her first job at 10, at Paddy's Market's in Sydney with her family business after a glorious childhood, growing up on acreage on the South Coast of New South Wales.

In reflecting on her most challenged stages of life it was returning to work, 3 months after having her first child and facing a crisis of confidence, the confidence to balance out her two important life roles.
