Would You Like to Design a New Life for Yourself?

My name is Kimberly “Design” Love, and I show people how to start & grow a lifestyle business. Just recently, I moved to my dream house near the beach. How?

I would love to share with you how I designed my life and how you can as well in my book, Design Your Life & Business.

I got the nickname Kimberly “Design” Love locally because I’m always designing something. I know what it is like to overcome my fears of networking and putting my work “out there” to bring in new clients and grow my business. That is why I am here to help you to design a business and a life that you love through planning and acting upon those plans. It wasn’t long ago that I was struggling to find clients for my design business. I thought I could simply sit quietly behind my computer and pray that clients would magically find me. The thought of going to networking meetings and making sales calls made me shaky and anxious. Then I said to myself, “Kimberly, You Can Design Your Lifestyle! No One Else can do it for You!” I discovered a way to tap into my strengths, face my fears, and find clients for my business.

Now I am grateful to have discovered methods and techniques that have helped me overcome my roadblocks to success. This doesn’t mean my old fears don’t sometimes creep back in, but now I have created systems that keep me on track. The results are that I have built a business that works with my lifestyle so I can work on my schedule and have time with my family and friends. And now I want to help you to reach your big lofty dreams.

Join me on this journey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect if you’re thinking or dreaming about a significant move to improve your life

I totally enjoyed this delightful read and have referred back to it time and again. First I found her writing style calming, thorough and very easy to assimilate. Subjects covered start with adjusting your mindset to think of money as something positive, why you shouldn’t compare yourself to other people above or below you, how important it is to build your own brand, conduct survey’s or quiz’s, and why principal competitors today often become your best supporters.
Also, why having some recovery time is frequently the principal saving factor for those not wanting to burnout in short order.
Her focus primarily is on assisting women design a sincere lifestyle that actually works and not require a 9 to 5 job, however some men today might be interested in an equivalent occupation and find their own steps to success.

The author includes many planning guides, roadmaps and excellent links to help you acquire your projected result with much less pain and leave more time to share with others.
Highly recommended especially for people looking for a new profitable lifestyle to emulate without needing to spend every waking moment, trying to keep afloat financially.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Handbook for Designing your Unique Lifestyle
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2019

I am only a third of the way through this book but am already gleaning so many great ideas and stopping to implement the steps. Plenty of books give you lots of fluff and theory that you read and never take action on. This book actually wants you to pause and take the action steps to bring your ideas to life.

Starting with mindset the author moves you forward with thought provoking questions and then the systems that empower you and keep you on track. Love the brainstorming exercise and the use of sticky notes to help organize your thoughts and easily move them around to find the best ideas to pursue.

I am already getting great value from this book. Highly recommend it.

I absolutely loved the author’s quote, “Faith it until you make it.” I also loved the gratitude train concept and the theme days such as Wacky Wednesday for a day of creativity! Although there are a lot of things I was already familiar with (and I love the book, The ONE Thing) there were scattered jewels of thought throughout the book that I enjoyed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Easy Read
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2019

The book is an easy read, and I think that even a fifth grader could handle the contents quite comfortably. I believe that is great because it does allow the reader to consume the content readily.

The author has a creative manner of expressing the ideas. Many of the ideas however, were simply regurgitation of what is already available. I could find a few ideas that were counter productive to the goal of the book, and others that made me think think that perhaps there is another perspective to how they were characterized.

For example, the book is about designing YOUR life, yet the author suggests that "living minimally' is a worthwhile goal. This many not be what some want to design THEIR lives to be.

Then there was the characterization of the Nice Lady Syndrome. My thoughts immediately were, that I know people who ARE the description in a genuine sense, that IS who they are. They're not trying to fit in to be accepted or just to be nice.

Aside from this, I was disappointed with missing words, stray periods, incorrect numbering of the items, etc., that diminished the professional feel of the book. Since it is a digital book, I hope the author revises the copy with professional editing.

Because of these errors I give this a 3 star..

All in all, it's possible that others may find value from some of the contents.
