Founder, Positive Productivity

Dear friend, it’s important you know and trust I will ALWAYS be honest with you…  EVEN when it means admitting the messy, ugly truths of my own entrepreneurial journey… And I have a lot of messy, ugly truths.

For example, I, Kim Sutton, know what it’s like to…

  • Be inauthentic in my business because I am more concerned with what others thought than being true to myself
  • Focus on quantity instead of quality, offering services because I want money, NOT because I enjoy doing them;
  • Miss important family moments because I “need” one more minute to work;
  • Work 20 hour days, 7 days a week to find my bank account empty and my mental and physical health suffering;
  • Jump from one idea to the next never finishing a project and thus never making money from my ideas;
  • Fall victim to Shiny Object Syndrome, buying courses, products and programs thinking they will success;

I, Kim Sutton, also know how to recover from the above pains. I know because I have personally experienced them!

I know the true cost of letting the expectations of others control our lives, and I don’t want to see you fall victim to the same negative side-effects of entrepreneurship I did.

So… Do you want to continue being a slave to unsatisfying expectations? Or are you ready to create joy and money pursuing your passion?

I’m committed to empowering you with the systems and strategies you need to help you embrace your true calling WITHOUT sacrificing revenue, your health, or time with loved ones.

I invite you to join me on the Work Smarter, Not Harder journey. Subscribe to the podcast, join the community and get ready to see your business and personal life change for the better. I wish you all my best, dear friend, and I can’t wait to see you soar while building a business that’s authentically YOU.

Some days this is how work gets done.⁠

Me + Pups = Productivity, Cuddles and More⁠

I told him his words hurt me.⁠
I hoped we could have a conversation and work our way through it.⁠
Instead, I received deflection and dismissal.⁠

For 100 days I hoped for an apology.⁠
Despite all the evidence that showed I would never hear one, I hoped.⁠
My phone and email stayed open, longing to hear the words, "I`m sorry I hurt you."⁠

I own my feelings.⁠
I ALLOWED his words to hurt me.⁠
But that doesn`t mean his words weren`t rude.⁠
That doesn`t mean his words weren`t hurtful.⁠
That doesn`t mean I don`t deserve an apology.⁠
That doesn`t mean I deserved the words he said.⁠

100 days have strengthened and empowered me.⁠
100 days have shown me the truth about myself AND others.⁠

If he truly cared he would have apologized on day 1.⁠
Better yet, if he truly cared the words would never have been said.⁠

100 days.⁠

Today I give MYSELF an apology, and a commitment to never give one more day, physically or mentally, to someone who disrespects me and then dismisses me.⁠

I deserve more.

"And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching." ~ Hebrews 10:24-25⁠

2024, so far, has been a huge lesson on personal character, values and behaviors. I`ve experienced pain and heartbreak I didn`t know was possible, but I`ve also been reminded how I want to treat people. I haven`t been perfect, going silent when my heart was breaking, but in all my words and deeds, I have tried to show/express love.⁠

One of the hardest lessons I`ve been reminded of is that not everyone in my life will want to spur me on toward love and good deeds. Not everyone will speak kindly to me or apologize for harsh words. Not everyone will be honest or truly care about me, even when they swear they only tell the truth and say they never want to hurt me.⁠

I`ve had to say goodbye to and/or take legal action against people I love(d) this year. I`ve had to do things which break my heart in order to maintain physical and emotional health and safety for myself and my kids, but I pray that by acknowledging and confronting the truth, my heart will be set free. The truth will set me free (John 8:32).

2024 has been a journey in putting my foot down and standing up for myself. I`ve had enough of this year if I`m honest.⁠

I filed for a protection order for my kids and I a couple weeks ago and the request was granted. Without going into details, I was experiencing threats and harassment nobody should experience. NOBODY should ever receive messages like I was receiving.⁠

These messages came on the tail of me shutting down another relationship. (The relationship and the protection order are not connected). The relationship was shut down because I expressed I had been hurt and, instead of having a conversation or apologizing, I was further hurt and dismissed.⁠

2024 has helped me see how I have settled for far less than I deserved. It`s shown me the harsh realities of trauma bonding and codependency, and the disturbing nature of narcissists. And it`s shown me the (type of) people I want to surround myself with.⁠

I got my nose pierced for my birthday.⁠

I realized I`ve spent 45 years worrying about other people`s opinions of me and crafting my life to suit them rather than living my life for God and me.⁠

So I took a step, straight into a piercing and tattoo parlor. ⁠
I`ll be going back in a few months to get a sleeve honoring God and the life He has blessed me with.
