She is also a life coach, leading wedding officiant and life celebrant in the Denver area. Kim has a passion for helping people, especially women, grow into the best version of themselves. Along with Rose Chamberlain and Carol Marquiss, Kim is a founder of “The Inner B Word”, a movement designed to empower women to reclaim the word and take it as a compliment. It is now an acronym that stands for Beauty, Intelligence, Tenacity, Confidence, and Humor.
We shine our spotlight on Jim Defilippi. Jim is the owner of Brown Fedora Books and the author of 26 books varying in genre from mystery to military history. He grew up in a blue-collar neighborhood called Duck Alley on Long Island, wrote and taught school in northern Vermont for 30 years, is a Vietnam era war veteran, father of two, grandfather of two, and husband of 49 years.
