Welcome back to Superheroes in Heels! I’m Kimberley Borgens, and in this episode, I’m inviting you to join me as I dig deep into some of the biggest misconceptions facing strong women in leadership—especially those of us who have built our careers in male-dominated industries. Drawing from over three decades of hard-won experience and lessons from my own journey, I want to call out one myth in particular: that being a powerful woman means resisting authority, being difficult to work with, or refusing to be led. If you’ve ever been labeled “bossy” or a “control freak,” this conversation is definitely for you.

Throughout this episode, I’ll share candid stories from my personal and professional life—including a chaotic, eye-opening leadership seminar where, despite all logic, the quietest and most collaborative leaders ultimately rose to the top. I’ll break down why women, especially in environments where leadership wasn’t just handed to us, have developed a fierce sense of authority and discernment, and why this isn’t about ego or the need for control—it’s about survival, wisdom, and earned resilience.

But leadership isn’t about always being in charge. Together, we’ll explore why the real strength of a leader comes from knowing when to step up and when to let others lead. I’ll redefine what command presence truly means (hint: it’s not about being the loudest or most dominant in the room), and share how the best leaders—the women who inspire me most—are those who can both guide and support, delegate and contribute, without ever shrinking or apologizing for their power.

If you’ve ever struggled to find your place in a team, felt the pressure to always perform, or worried that letting someone else lead meant losing your influence, I want you to listen closely. This episode is packed with encouragement, hard truths, and practical advice on how to own your space, amplify the success of others, and embrace leadership as a collaborative, ever-evolving journey.

It’s time to challenge the outdated narratives holding us back and to celebrate the kind of leadership that thrives on wisdom, flexibility, and genuine presence. So put on those superhero heels (or not!), and let’s step into a more authentic, powerful way to lead—together.

Welcome back to "Superheroes in Heels," the podcast where powerful women come together to rise, lead, and confidently own every room they walk into. I’m your host, Kimberley Borgens, and in this episode, I’m inviting you to join me for an honest, soul-baring conversation about a hidden truth that often accompanies the journey to the top—loneliness.

Even after decades of building success in male-dominated industries, I’ll be the first to admit that there’s a side of achievement we don’t talk about enough—the emotional isolation that can come with breaking barriers, scaling our businesses, and evolving into the leaders we strive to become. Outwardly, we’re told to celebrate our wins, showcase our influence, and keep pushing higher, but behind closed doors, many of us quietly feel the ache of disconnection—from friends, from old routines, and even at times from our own teams.

In this episode, I dig deep into the realities of shifting relationships as you grow. I share stories from my personal journey, from the evolution of my friendships to navigating the delicate balance of being personable—but not too personal—with a large team. I open up about what it’s like to wonder where all your friends went, and how power dynamics and changing priorities can reshape even the closest bonds.

But I don’t stop at just naming the problem. Together, we’ll explore real, practical solutions—how joining masterminds, seeking out mentors, and intentionally reconnecting with peers can empower us to create new circles of understanding and support. I’m candid about the grief that can come when relationships fade, but I’m just as passionate about the joy that comes from forming new, authentic connections with women who are on similar journeys.

If you’ve ever found yourself feeling isolated at the top, wondering if you’re the only one experiencing these challenges, I want you to know you are not alone. This episode is about validation, encouragement, and self-care. It’s about learning to let go of guilt, embracing change, and understanding that you do not have to carry your superhero cape by yourself. Together, we’ll talk about letting connection become your superpower, building community on purpose, and giving yourself permission to grow unapologetically.

So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s get real about the hidden cost of female success—and how we can overcome it, together.

Welcome back to "Superheroes in Heels"! I’m your host, Kimberley Borgens, and today, I want to open up a conversation that’s as real and vulnerable as it is necessary—what happens when a powerful woman becomes the villain in someone else’s story. After more than 30 years carving my path and building success in a male-dominated industry, I’ve seen and experienced what it takes for women to step into leadership—and just how quickly that strength can be misunderstood.

In this episode, I talk openly about the double standards women face in business and beyond. Why is it that when a man is decisive and enforces boundaries, he’s respected, but when a woman does the same, she’s labeled difficult or cold—or even called the villain outright? Together, we’ll explore the unspoken rules society tries to write for us: keep small, stay agreeable, give everyone the best deal, say yes to everything. But what happens when you refuse to shrink? When you take the risk to grow, to raise your standards, or simply say no? Sometimes, crossing that line to authenticity comes with backlash, isolation, and criticism that men in similar positions rarely face.

I’ll share some honest stories from my own leadership journey, including moments when I had to make painful decisions that cost me approval—but upheld my integrity and vision. I talk about what it feels like to lose friendships, to be pushed away, or to be singled out online, simply for refusing to play small. I walk through times where I was called intimidating or unapproachable, and how—even when you do your best to lead with grace—there will be people who misunderstand your role, your decisions, and your drive.

More importantly, I want to reframe the whole idea of being a villain. If being a villain means enforcing standards, choosing growth over comfort, or refusing to comply with outdated expectations—maybe we’ve all got a little heroic villain in us. Every superhero disrupts the status quo, and in somebody’s story, that disruption can feel threatening.

But the truth is, leadership isn’t a popularity contest. It’s about responsibility, vision, and integrity—even when it means not everyone will like you. I talk about why we need to stop diluting our own voices just to stay likable, and why being respected—and truly owning your authority—matters so much more.

Of course, I also touch on how important it is to have strong support networks—women who get it, who will listen and share honestly, and help reduce the loneliness that can come with leadership. And I’ll give some real, actionable advice for maintaining your sense of self, prioritizing your mental health, and sustaining your impact in the face of criticism.

This week, I invite you to listen in, reflect on your own stories, and remember that every bold woman who steps into her power will inevitably become a villain in someone else’s narrative. And that’s okay. Because for every person you threaten by refusing to shrink, there’s another who is lifted, inspired, and empowered by your courage.

So—let’s break through the myths, elevate our confidence, and keep our heels high and standards higher. You’re not alone, and you’re more powerful than you know. Welcome to the conversation.

Welcome back to Superheroes in Heels! I’m Kimberley Borgens, and in this episode, I’m inviting you to join me for an honest, compassionate conversation about something that quietly affects so many women: financial infidelity. If you’ve ever kept a little cash on the side, started a secret savings account, or felt anxious about discussing money with your partner, you are not alone—and you are absolutely in the right place.

With more than 30 years of experience navigating male-dominated business spaces, I’ve seen and experienced firsthand how women are often expected to rely on others when it comes to money. In this episode, we’ll talk openly about those hidden stashes of cash, the unspoken habits we picked up from our moms and grandmas, and the deeper reasons we sometimes keep money secrets—from a need for survival and safety, to carving out our own autonomy, or even just fueling our ambitions and dreams.

I’ll share some of my own stories—like why I kept my kitchen savings a secret, and how past financial betrayals shaped the way I think about money today. But this isn’t just about sharing my experience; it’s about empowering you to release any guilt you’re carrying and to see your financial strategies as acts of strength, not shame.

Together, we’ll explore ways to move from secrecy to strategy—how you can set up your own savings systems, create budgets that actually work for your real life and dreams, and learn to navigate conversations about money with confidence, whether with yourself or your loved ones. I also want you to know that if you’re in a situation where secrecy is needed for your safety or peace of mind, you’re doing exactly what you need to do—and no one should judge you for protecting yourself.

And because financial power comes from knowledge, I’ll share the value of financial literacy and the importance of tapping into supportive communities and resources designed for women just like you. By the end of this episode, I want you to feel inspired, validated, and armed with practical steps you can use right now to reclaim your financial power—one smart, intentional choice at a time.

So grab your favorite mug, get comfortable, and let’s dig into this sometimes-tough, but incredibly important, topic. As your host and fellow superhero in heels, I’m here to remind you: you are not alone, your financial dreams are valid, and together, we’re building a future where women own their financial stories with courage and pride.

Welcome to another episode of Superheroes in Heels! I’m your host, Kimberley Borgens, and today I want to peel back the curtain on something that almost no one talks about—the surprising, and sometimes challenging, ways that power and success can reshape our relationships and marriages.

For so many of us, stepping into leadership is an incredible achievement, especially in spaces where women are still breaking new ground. We cheer each other on as we knock down barriers, earn promotions, start businesses, or take the reins as decision-makers. But nobody really tells us how that surge in confidence and accomplishment can ripple out at home. Suddenly, unspoken expectations start to surface, old habits get put under the microscope, and both partners are left navigating a whole new dynamic—one that we might not have been prepared for.

In this episode, I get deeply personal with my own story, reflecting on how becoming the CEO of our company—and truly owning that title—shifted everything in my marriage. There were moments of excitement, but also friction and doubt. My husband and I moved from business partners to what sometimes felt like roommates, arguing not over big, dramatic changes, but over small, everyday things that built up over time. I share about the awkwardness of suddenly being “Kimberley’s husband” in social circles, and how both of us had to adapt when the reality of our roles changed.

But it’s not just about marriage. I talk about how friendships can become strained, how guilt and loneliness can creep in—especially when your growth outpaces that of the people around you. There were times I questioned if the price of success was too high, and I had to wrestle with the discomfort of letting go of relationships that weren’t evolving with me.

Most importantly, I offer some practical, heartfelt advice for women who find themselves feeling alone on this journey. From rewriting the “rules” of your relationships, to embracing open communication and honest, judgment-free check-ins, to scheduling family rituals and carving out single-focus time, I let you in on the tools and strategies that helped me stay connected to the people I love—even when everything else was shifting.

If you’ve ever wondered how to hold onto your marriage, cherish your friends, and most of all, remain true to yourself as you rise, this episode is for you. It’s a reminder that growth isn’t failure—it’s evolution. And sometimes, bringing others along means having difficult conversations, creating new rituals, and allowing old ideas about “perfection” to fade away.

So grab your coffee, get comfortable, and join me for a deeply honest conversation about rewriting what success, love, and leadership look like—together. We’re going beyond the highlight reel today, and I can’t wait for you to be part of this powerful and necessary discussion.

Welcome back to Superheroes in Heels! I’m Kimberley Borgens, your host, and today I’m so excited to dive into a topic that hits close to home for so many women in business and life: the truth about “getting ready.” For decades, I’ve seen incredible, talented women—myself included—fall into the trap of believing we need to wait until everything is perfect, until we feel completely prepared, until we’re absolutely confident, before we take bold action. Well, today’s episode is all about blowing that myth out of the water.

In this episode, I’m getting real with you about how “getting ready” isn’t actually a step forward—it’s one of the prettiest, sneakiest excuses we use to play small. So often, we convince ourselves that putting off the launch, the promotion, the raise, or even just putting ourselves out there is smart and safe. In reality, all that preparing, overthinking, and over-learning is just another form of procrastination—one that feels productive but keeps us stuck. And guess what? Men rarely fall into this same pattern. They dive in with only part of the qualifications and figure things out as they go, while we often hold ourselves back, waiting until we’re 120% certain.

Throughout this episode, I share stories from my own journey—like stepping into public speaking even when my voice was shaking, or setting my rates as a coach before I ever had the validation I thought I needed—and stories from amazing clients who broke through the illusion of readiness by taking action first. We’ll talk about how perfectionism, social conditioning, past wounds, and even our well-meaning desire for professionalism can actually make our dreams harder to reach.

But don’t worry—this isn’t just tough love. I’m giving you a practical framework and mindset shifts that you can start using right away. We’ll cover how action creates confidence (not the other way around), why messy progress is better than polished hiding, and how to finally claim your role as CEO of your business and your life. I’ll even walk you through some “Superhero in Heels” power affirmations and actionable steps to help you move from waiting to winning.

If you’re tired of stalling and ready to stop saying, “I’ll do that when I’m ready,” this episode is your personal invitation to hit “go”—even if it’s a little messy, even if it’s a little scary. Remember, superheroes don’t wait for confidence or permission. We take action, and confidence catches up with us.

So grab a friend who needs this pep talk as much as you do, settle in, and let’s unleash your power together. It’s time to trade “getting ready” for getting real, and I can’t wait to cheer you on.

Welcome back to Superheroes in Heels! I’m your host, Kimberley Borgens, and I’m thrilled you’re joining me for another empowering conversation designed to help women rise, lead, and truly own the room—especially in the world of business. With decades of experience in male-dominated industries, I know firsthand how crucial it is to step into our power, and today, we’re going deep into a topic that sits right at the heart of business success: money.

Let’s be real—money is the fuel for our ideas, our growth, and our future. Yet, for so many women, it’s a subject that feels awkward, intimidating, and sometimes just plain uncomfortable to talk about. In fact, you might be surprised by how much easier it can be for women to discuss almost any other topic before opening up about finances. But ignoring these conversations doesn’t help anyone—it simply holds us back, whether it’s sabotaging our chances at salary negotiation, underpricing our services, or missing out on financial opportunities that could transform our lives and businesses.

In this episode, I’m sharing my own journey—growing up with little financial education, learning to navigate workplace dynamics, and battling fear of judgment and common biases about women and money. We’ll unpack why money talk has long been painted as “a man's topic,” how cultural and social norms have shaped our beliefs, and why it’s time to break free from those outdated scripts.

I’ll offer practical strategies to help you build financial confidence, from teaming up with a “money buddy,” finding mentors willing to share their financial wisdom, to educating yourself on everything from budgeting to investments. We’ll talk about the importance of knowing your worth, bravely negotiating for what you deserve, and celebrating the small wins that add up to true financial empowerment.

More than anything, I want you to walk away knowing that talking about money isn’t bragging or selfish—it’s about claiming facts, stepping into possibility, and rewriting your story as a woman who leads with confidence and lives unapologetically. I’ve been to the bottom, and I’ve learned that only by facing these uncomfortable money conversations did I unlock the growth and success I’d always dreamed about.

So, superheroes, are you ready to break the barriers and give yourself permission to talk boldly about money? This episode is your invitation to start now—because together, we can create a new narrative where women not only thrive in business but also lift each other up financially. Your voice matters. Your goals matter. And your new superpower might just be the courage to talk about money!

Welcome back to Superheroes in Heels! I’m Kimberley Borgens, and in this episode, I want to get real about a topic that so many women—especially businesswomen—often avoid: money, credit cards, and managing debt. I know how overwhelming and even scary it can feel to talk about credit card debt, but it doesn’t have to be that way. With over 30 years of experience navigating the ups and downs of the business world—and thriving in industries where women are still the minority—I’ve seen firsthand how taking charge of your financial life can transform not only your business, but your confidence, your family, and your future.

In this conversation, I open up about the strategies that helped me build a multi-million dollar company while still living within my means. I share the lessons I’ve learned through my own financial mistakes (trust me, I’ve made plenty!) and reveal how I turned credit cards from a source of fear and stress into a tool for building wealth and earning rewards. You'll hear real stories from my sisters, clients, and friends who’ve paid down enormous debts—sometimes tens of thousands of dollars—using simple changes in mindset and a few key tactics.

We talk about the difference between “good” and “bad” debt, and why it’s so important for women to participate in household finances—even if your spouse has always handled the bills. I’m passionate about making sure you have the knowledge and power to set yourself up for success, no matter what life throws at you.

I’ll break down how to strategically use credit cards for your business: earning cash back, maximizing points, and taking advantage of low-interest transfers, all while avoiding the pitfalls that can drag you down. And I don’t just tell you what to do—I'll show you how it’s possible, and how you can make it work in your life right now.

Most of all, I hope this episode encourages you to let go of shame around debt, ask for help when you need it, and see credit cards as a tool you can master—not something that controls you. This is your year to pay off that lingering debt, shift your mindset, find peace with your money, and step fully into your role as the CEO of your business and your life.

So grab your coffee, hit play, and get ready to unleash your inner superhero—one smart, empowered financial move at a time.

Welcome back to "Superheroes in Heels," I’m Kimberley Borgens, your host and unapologetic advocate for women in business, especially those trailblazing their way through male-dominated spaces. In today’s episode, I’m ready to get fired up and have a raw, ridiculously bold conversation that every woman entrepreneur needs to hear. After 30 years of building my own business and mentoring others, I’ve discovered that the key to real success is showing up as your authentic self and giving 100%—no holding back.

So let me ask you: Are you letting yourself and your business fall short by playing small? Who benefits when you dim your light, skip opportunities, and hesitate to ask for the sale? Spoiler alert—it’s not you. Every time you hesitate, your competition gets stronger, your message loses traction, and you miss out on cash flow, genuine relationships, and the chance to uplift your community.

I’m sharing some hard-earned truths about why it’s essential to commit to your office hours, honor your role as CEO (yes, whether you call yourself that or not!), and stop letting your inner critic or the doubters make the rules. When you show up fierce, fully prepared, and unafraid—yes, even if you’re scared and do it anyway—you become unstoppable. Your authenticity inspires trust and loyalty, sets a positive ripple effect, and ensures your talents are remembered for all the right reasons.

We all mess up sometimes; perfection is not the goal here. It’s about consistently stepping into your power, embracing your strengths, and refusing to let anyone or anything dim your shine. I promise, the world is waiting for your unique brand of bold. So let’s level up together: join me in embracing your superhero cape, setting structures that support your vision, and refusing to hand over your market share to anyone else. Inside today’s episode, you’ll find the inspiration—and some practical steps—to step boldly into your power for your business, your dreams, and your community.

Are you ready to rise, lead, and own every room you walk into? Let’s dive in, superheroes!

Ready to kick off a new year? In this episode, we’re diving into a topic that holds so many women in business back: breaking the cycle of “getting ready to get ready.” If you’ve ever found yourself over-preparing, waiting for the perfect moment, or doubting if you’re really ready to take a leap, this conversation is for you.

After more than three decades building my career in a male-dominated industry, I know what it’s like to want all your ducks in a row before making a move. But I’ve learned, and I share in this episode, that success and growth don’t come from waiting for courage or confidence to magically appear. They come from taking bold, imperfect action, even when you’re scared, uncertain, or feeling less than ready.

I share stories from my own journey, like what I did when a Fortune 500 company bought my business and then abruptly went bankrupt—talk about having to think (and act) fast! You’ll hear practical strategies on shifting your mindset, setting specific goals, embracing imperfection, and giving yourself permission to act without all the answers. We’ll also talk about the power of accountability, reframing fear as helpful feedback, and how to create real momentum in your business and life.

If you’re ready to stop sitting on the sidelines and start stepping confidently into your role as an entrepreneur, leader, or change-maker, this episode will inspire and empower you. Let’s rise together, break the cycle, and unleash your inner superhero—right now!
