Kimberly Spencer bio:
Kimberly Spencer is a dynamic 16+ year entrepreneur, subconscious success strategist, Amazon #1 bestselling author, and TEDx speaker. As the founder of Crown Yourself® and CEO of Communication Queens Agency, she empowers leaders to transform self-limiting beliefs, rewrite their personal stories, and achieve holistic success in business, relationships, and life.
A former Miss Congeniality, certified Pilates instructor, screenwriter (with her film BRO acquired by Lionsgate), and multifaceted achiever in fitness, entrepreneurship, and pageantry, Kimberly draws from a journey marked by overcoming childhood challenges, including family addiction, bulimia, perfectionism, and chronic self-sabotage. Despite early successes across diverse fields—from running a Pilates studio and starring in London theater to pitching on Shark Tank auditions and building e-commerce ventures—she recognized that internal patterns of fear, codependency, and not-enoughness were undermining her wins.
This realization sparked her pivot to mindset mastery, blending neuro-linguistic programming, somatic practices, breathwork, and high-performance habits with practical entrepreneurship strategies. Today, she helps hundreds of visionary leaders clear unconscious blocks, align their mindset with messaging, amplify their visibility (including through podcasting mastery, as detailed in her #1 bestseller, Make Every Podcast Want You), and build empires rooted in freedom, fulfillment, and authenticity.
A health enthusiast fueled by green juice and espresso, a devoted mother to two boys, and an unsinkable optimist who believes in miracles, Manolos, and the profit in mistakes, Kimberly champions the idea that everyone can crown themselves sovereign by choosing a powerful new story.
