In this episode of Her Best Chapter, host Michelle Savage engages in a heartfelt and deeply moving conversation with Kim Berry Jones, bestselling author in Empathy Impact, President of the Kinship Fund, and a bold advocate for relationship-driven philanthropy.

Kim leads the Kinship Fund, a private foundation that uplifts women and girls to stay in school, stay out of prison, and be rooted in possibility. She practices community-driven, trust-based philanthropy, building long-term partnerships that enable everyone in the community to thrive. Her work is grounded in the belief that transformation happens through relationships, not transactions.

In this conversation, Michelle and Kim explore the power of community, the beauty of unlikely friendships, and how protecting your peace allows you to show up more fully for others. Kim shares the deeply personal story of Nancy, an unconventional friendship that reshaped her understanding of love, caregiving, and legacy. Through navigating grief and loss, Kim discovered a deeper calling to shake up philanthropy and inspire transformational impact as a speaker, author, and advocate.

For anyone who has ever questioned whether small acts of kindness truly matter, this episode offers a resounding answer. Kindness is never small. Its impact ripples through lives, families, and entire communities.
