Built Not Born: Kimberly Borgens on Confidence, Coaching & Women in Male-Dominated Industries
Season 3 Episode 16
In this episode of Women of Wealth, Hawley sits down with powerhouse CEO, leadership strategist, and founder of the Be Bold Movement, Kimberley Borgens, for a deeply honest and empowering conversation about confidence, entrepreneurship, and creating generational wealth as a woman - especially in male-dominated industries. Kimberly shares her unconventional journey from growing up in a military family to becoming a multimillion-dollar business owner leading over 70 employees. She breaks down the mindset shifts required to move from “doing it all yourself” to stepping fully into CEO identity, investing in yourself, and recognizing your true value—both personally and professionally.
Throughout the conversation, Kimberley challenges women to stop shrinking, stop apologizing, and start taking up space. From body language and confidence cues to redefining what it means to be “high maintenance” for yourself, this episode is packed with practical wisdom and real-life examples women can apply immediately.
Kimberley and Hawley also dive into:
- Why entrepreneurship is the greatest education you’ll ever pay for
- The importance of learning from failure instead of fearing it
- How women undervalue themselves—and how to change that narrative
- Raising children in entrepreneurship and modeling ownership and leadership
- Navigating business with a spouse and claiming the CEO seat with confidence
- Why community, advocacy, and the right rooms matter for women building wealth
- The critical differences between coaches, consultants, mentors, and advocates
Kimberley closes by sharing how women can connect with her through her free community, The Hive Hangout, and her podcast Superheroes in Heels, continuing the mission of empowering women to lead boldly, confidently, and unapologetically.
✨ This episode is a must-listen for women ready to stop playing small, own their voice, and build wealth with confidence and clarity.
