We all have a spark inside and right now the world needs YOUR light.

Occasionally I will share my own tips and tricks for getting "lit".
Who is Kim Selby - your host? A motivator, fashionista, yogi, dancer, performer. I am aging gracefully into my 3rd act. I have had careers in fashion at GLAMOUR Magazine and as the Fashion Director of Saks Fifth Avenue in Palo Alto. I have had careers in advertising and public relations as well. I had my own fashion show production company for over 20 years where I worked with moms, volunteers, teens, dads, and children helping them find their inner diva on the runway. The hundreds of shows I produced were fundraisers for schools or organizations and I witnessed how with coaching, the right clothes, hair and makeup, women increased their self esteem exponentially. This led me to a Creativity Coaching certification (Kaizen-Muse), and to creating my own Sparkle Coaching for women. As an avid volunteer I have worked in my community at schools and various organizations in order to give back. Favorite and most impactful position was producing a fund raiser fashion show featuring previously incarcerated women. I assisted them in enhancing their self esteem as they reintegrated into society. I have a self guided class coming soon - How to Ignite Your Spark in mid-life and Beyond. I speak on stages virtually and in person on how to Ignite Your inner spark and I share the message that you are never too old. At the age of 64 I started pursuing my first love of acting and now have a modeling and commercial career as well. I invite you all to SHINE ON! Please reach out to me with questions or comments and if you love the podcast I hope you will rate, subscribe, comment and share. My goal is to bring more light to our planet.

Dance, Movement, and Empowerment: A Conversation with Des Caminos
In this magnetic episode of "Ignite Your Spark with Kim," I am thrilled to introduce you to the transformative world of Des Caminos. Prepare to be invigorated as Des, with her rich background in psychology and sociology, passionately shares how she ventured into the realm of dance movement therapy and burlesque to fortify women's spirits. Des's dynamic approach intertwines the somatic and the embodied, charting a course for a uniquely interconnected model of healing. As we both explore the profound power of expressing oneself through the body, I reflect on my affinity for improv and dance and how these tools help unleash inner energy and vibrancy.
We delve deep into the essence of inner work, confronting the intense emotions that define so much of our human experience—guilt, shame, anger, jealousy, grief—and the vital process of unmasking these feelings to foster genuine personal growth. Des illuminates how societal prescriptions can stifle emotional expression and the exploration necessary to tap into the true treasures within. Together, we navigate the concept of self-sabotage, dissecting the self-defeating behaviors that arise from the controlling shackles of "shoulds" and highlighting the transformative possibilities of self-compassion over self-criticism. Des's invigorating conversation is an open invitation to all those seeking to ignite their own spark and find their unique rhythm in life’s dance.
Sparkle into life friends and please share this episode and the Podcast if you are enjoying the conversations.
Shine on!
