THE THREAD THAT RUNS THROUGH EVERYTHING

Remember. Reclaim. Return.

Before it became the heart of The Phoenix Path™, it was the story I had been living all along.

Remember

The little girl who always knew she was a writer. The dreamer creating worlds, imagining possibilities, and believing stories could change everything.

Reclaim

The voice, imagination, magic, and stories that never truly disappeared,  they were simply waiting for the right chapter.

Return

The author I dreamed of becoming, now carrying the wisdom, experiences, heartbreaks, adventures, and lessons of an entire life into every word I write.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Kimberly Smith is an author and storyteller who writes about transformation, identity, hidden truths, and the moments that change the course of our lives.

Long before titles, careers, and the many chapters life would bring, Kimberly was a six-year-old girl with a big imagination and a dream of becoming an author. Stories were where she explored possibility, created worlds, and discovered the magic of asking, “What if?”

That dream never disappeared. It simply waited for the right chapter.

Today, as a five-time bestselling nonfiction author, Kimberly continues that lifelong love of storytelling through transformational works and fictional worlds filled with mystery, magic, and the things that exist just beyond what we can see.

Her writing is drawn to the same thread: the stories we carry, the truths waiting beneath the surface, and the courage it takes to discover who we really are.

Her work explores the questions that follow us through every lifetime: Who are we before the world tells us who to become? What pieces of ourselves have we forgotten? And what happens when everything we thought we knew about ourselves and the world we live in begins to unravel?

After more than three decades of walking beside people through growth, change, leadership, and reinvention, Kimberly discovered that every person carries a story,  the one they have lived, the one they have been told, and the one waiting to be written.

Her work blends emotional depth, curiosity, intuition, imagination, and lived experience to explore the messy, beautiful process of being human.

Kimberly is the creator of The Phoenix Path™, a transformational nonfiction journey of remembering, reclaiming, and returning to who you truly are. She is also currently creating a preternatural and supernatural fiction series where hidden worlds, impossible truths, complicated relationships, and a destiny never asked for collide.

She believes the most powerful stories are not about becoming someone new. They are about remembering the parts of ourselves we forgot, reclaiming what was always ours, and returning to who we were meant to be.

When she is not writing, you will find Kimberly in Southeast Florida with her children at the center of her world, her dog and cats nearby, a book in hand (probably nonfiction, probably one from her huge TBR pile), something witchy on the altar, tending her garden, following the rhythm of the moon cycles, or traveling with her partner in their bus while intentionally building a life filled with freedom, adventure, and meaning.
