“Josephine Kimberling demonstrates a profound commitment to empowering individuals to lead purposeful lives. Over the past decade, I have made it a practice to select a Word of the Year. Nevertheless, Josephine's "Determining Your Word of the Year" worksheet provided me with a more profound understanding of what I truly require for the upcoming year. Through her unique approach, she effectively illuminates and inspires, tailoring her guidance to each individual's specific needs.“

“I got a lot more out of this exercise than I normally do. Though I'm naturally drawn to self-reflection aids, I don't often get to my "sweet spot" by the end. I think the way these questions were asked along with the motivating structure and continued probing unlocked a steady stream of responses (and enthusiasm as I surprised myself by how much content I was coming up with). About halfway through the exercises, a word came to me like quiet insight. But it's a word I'd n-e-v-e-r been drawn to before, so I suspiciously side-eyed it as I kept going through the process. And yet... with each deeper question, that word dug itself in as the word, resonating so loudly in three important aspects of my life. So a term that used to make me pretty uncomfortable is suddenly opening up some juicy possibility. Pretty excited that I've got something clear to steer this upcoming year. 10 out of 10!”
