Bio:

Kimmie Reed, affectionately known as the Relationship Motivator is on a mission to help people see the self-destructive patterns they are creating in their love life so that they can attract the ideal partner…and keep them. 

Kimmie is the author of three books. “Get Your Woman - Keep Your Man, Marriage is Easy-People are Hard, & The Kaleidoscope of Kimetry.   Divorced THREE Times - Married Once, which will be her 4th book is digging deep into what led to three failed marriages & her current 22 year relationship with her husband of 19 years.

Kimmie decided to take her love for relationship motivation to TikTok on Feb 28th 2021 where her main focus has been on the hearts of men. Showing men that their feelings, needs and desires matter & giving them a safe place to be vulnerable. 

Kimmie’s love for sharing body and skincare tips with women has also played a huge role in her growing following due to her Beauty Shouldn’t Be A Secret series! She believes that there is enough health, wellness and beauty for everyone! She’s single handily emailed thousands of women and hundreds of men DIY recipes for hair, & skin and list of supplements that have helped her maintain health and wellness. She’s not shy about putting her age out there either. At age 56, she understands that every year is a blessing so it’s crazy to stress about age when she should be enjoying it.    Kimmie’s following quickly grew to nearly 300K in a 7 1/2 month period due to several viral TikToks, which have been shared all over Instagram and Facebook as well.   

Kimmie is often joined by her husband James in her Relationship Motivation group sessions, varies speaking engagements and podcast. She calls James her “secret weapon” & if you’ve ever seen them together you’ve seen why.

Kimmie is currently enrolled in a certification program for Life Coaching & Law of Attraction Coaching.

About:

"A couple that plays together -  STAYS TOGETHER!" That's the light bulb moment that inspired the creation of "Last Couple Standing." It's a bit of a long story, but the gist of it is: we're jokesters, and we realized having fun and being goofy with our partners is what keeps the spark ignited in our relationships. So, we (along with our partners Adelle & Sheryl) set out to create a game for couples. A game to help folks bond with each other and their friends, while making unforgettable moments in the process.

Join us this week as we dive into fatherhood with Jamaal Peeples!

On this episode we discuss:

Watch this episode's interview on Youtube: https://youtu.be/LWD5WTdYEVo

Bio: My name is Jamaal and I am the proud father for two little girls who live with me full time, Ayanna and Amanyi. I've been a single full time father since 2012. I started a blog because a couple of years ago, I went online to find other stories of Black men who raise their kids full time as single parents. And... ...I found zip. Zero. Nothing. Surely, there were other men out there like me who raise their kids full time. We all know the stereotypes of Black men as fathers. And this can be no further from the truth.  So, I started my blog to tell my stories. And in the couple years that I've been writing these blogs, I've found that my experiences are just like the single parent experiences of everyone else.
