The topic for this series is "Bringing others along because we are better together!” focusing on how one person bringing someone along can impact ones personal and professional life. #BetterTogether
May's special guest speaker will be Dominique Narciso Kim
Dominique Narciso Kim is a High Performance Coach for Creative and Entrepreneurial Women. She helps her students and clients overcome fear, self-doubt, and failure, in order to pursue their higher calling.
Dom is the author of "Live Your New Story: Discover Your Best Self and Live Your Best Life" - a memoir and coaching book that illustrates her career journey and how she overcame career loss after moving to over six countries in ten years as a trailing spouse in the US Foreign Service.
She is also the host of two podcasts "The Positive Success Show" and the "WE Corps Podcast" where she inspires women entrepreneurs and leaders to pursue their highest calling, dedicate time to personal development, and learn from successful, positive, and influential leaders, while advancing gender equity, financial empowerment, and sustainability.
Dom began her career as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Costa Rica, serving on the Women + Development Committee and hosting the country's first Girl's Leadership Conference and Magazine. She went on to pursue a Master's in Foreign Service at Georgetown University with experiences at Women Thrive Worldwide, the US Senate, and Mercy Corps/Indonesia.
Shortly after graduate school, Dom and her partner welcomed twin daughters to the world. While raising babies, she took a step back from her career to pursue a social impact venture, AIDWELL, which eventually failed. But her year of trying entrepreneurship, led to writing her first article on DEVEX, earning two scholarships to prestigious conferences, and a belief that anything was possible.
After her attempt at business, Dom joined the Foreign Service and served as a Consular Officer in Lima, Peru, while welcoming her third daughter. Although she had reached what seemed to be a dream job, after much reflection, she realized her true calling was in teaching, coaching, and mentorship. Dom left her career in international affairs to pursue her own business in coaching ambitious and high achieving women to find their unique voice. Today, Dom has spoken at the US Embassy in Korea and Australia, Georgetown University McDonough School of Business, Fulbright Program, and McKinsey & Co. in South Korea. She continues to dream big and serve others. Dom's next big goal is to do a TEDx and to continue supporting Women Entrepreneurs and Leaders advancing gender and racial equity, financial empowerment, and sustainability through a new initiative called the W.E. Corps (Women’s Entrepreneurial Corps).
She currently resides in Canberra with her wife and three daughters.
