Dawn Taylor welcomes healer and coach Kim Lyle, owner of Thrive Within, to the show to talk about the massive self-help industry. Kim is not a fan of the pressure the self-help industry brings to life but she and Dawn discuss the good and the bad with raw honesty.
Kim went through her own struggles when she was a mother with a toddler and new baby and realized she was sleep deprived, pressed for time, and at a breaking point. She turned to the self-help industry for guidance but what she found was pressure to create time she didn’t have and an overwhelming sense of being broken or not good enough.
Dawn and Kim explore the good and bad of the self-help complex. They candidly address exactly what you shouldn’t allow the industry to make you feel and how to assess whether or not a specific modality or coach is offering value or is throwing up red flags. Kim assures listeners that if the ideals pushed by the self-help industry don’t work for us, we’re not broken or alone. The deep dive into an industry that permeates every aspect of our modern lives is a necessary one, to ensure we’re doing what’s best for ourselves.
About Kim Lyle:
Kim is a down to earth, grounded-in-reality healer, helper, coach...not really sure what label to give herself yet or if she’s all the labels. She embraces nuance and context and plays within the grey areas of life. She is also the creator of the "Not Your Typical Self Help Seminar" that focuses on breaking down why people are feeling so overwhelmed and stuck and what to do about it...forgoing the black and white, lacking nuance, typical self help advice most people flock to.
She had to go through her own "life crisis/identity crisis" of sorts to figure out who she truly was underneath all of her conditioning. Through this process she began to uncover all the lies sold to us through our society that keep us feeling like failures. She is fiercely compassionate and believes deeply in everyone’s ability to create power within themselves

I felt like my life had been squandered a little bit in the season of having babies and people needing me. But after working with Dawn, I realize I have the potential for greatness. It was the first time in my life that I realized I actually have the potential to do amazing things.

I had been in therapy since I was 16, over 20 years of going to therapy before I met Dawn. But in 14-15 months of working with her, my brain has essentially rewired itself. How I view my friends, myself, and God has changed. But you have to buy in, and be willing to work through the tough stuff to get to the other side.

I Get It -
Life is Hard!
Like many of my clients, I’ve also felt ugly, useless, and forgotten.
I’ve gone through depression, molestation, and a brain aneurysm.
It took me years to understand what I had gone through and how to use my past to support others in conquering their fears and self talk.
That’s why I’ve condensed what I’ve learned into strategies to help you overcome your own stuff efficiently.
With multiple different certificates, training courses, and a whole lot of courage and stubbornness, I decided that if I could heal myself I could help others heal too.
