"As an actress, I could live other people's stories; I didn't have to live my own."

Walker Kimberly’s career as an Actress, Model, spokesperson, and Voiceover artist in the entertainment and advertising industries has spanned over 25 years and continues today.

She has appeared in blockbuster films, primetime television shows, dozens of commercials, and thousands of advertising campaigns for global brands.

She is also the author of AWAKEN—Discovering Yourself Through the Light of Your Innocence, which is her unique story about the choices she made at a young age to overcome the trauma of her youth and the anxiety it caused her.

Today, along with continuing her acting career, Walker works with Lisa Nichols, one of the world’s most-requested motivational speakers, as a contracted speaker coach in Lisa Nichol’s community of millions and on two of her twice-annual signature events: the Legendary Speaker Challenge and Speak & Write.

Another dream came true in recent years: writing and publishing her first book, Awaken – Discovering Yourself Through the Light of Your Innocence.

Awaken is an intimate and vulnerable memoir sharing a journey towards releasing self-imposed limitations, activating authentic contributions, and how that led to creating a fulfilling life.

What most didn’t know about Walker until her book, AWAKEN – Discovering Yourself Through the Light of Your Innocence, was released is her unique story and the choices she made at a young age to overcome the trauma of her youth and the anxiety it had caused.

Determined to break the bond of abuse from holding her captive as it had many family members, she left home at 15 and became an emancipated minor at the age of 16… Despite her age, she knew that transcending the environment of her youth was possible if she chose herself rather than what she had been exposed to.

Dedication to her well-being, seeking truth, and a persistent commitment to personal development soon led to her discovering her unique path.

As a young adult, her innate creative personality and courage attracted the craft of acting, and once again, she embraced the unknown and began affirming creating success was possible.

Regardless of her professional success, having a family unrecognizable from what she had experienced remained at the top of her list, and she achieved that, too!

She has been happily married for 22 years to the man she has known for over 35 years and loves being a parent.

Nugget of Hope: "Be more open to trust."

Michael Hingson, blind since birth, was born in Chicago to sighted parents who believed in raising their son with a can-do attitude. Treated like all other children in his family, Michael rode a bike, did advanced math in his head, and learned to read and write – Braille, that is!

Michael Hingson’s life changed dramatically on September 11, 2001, when he and his guide dog, Roselle, escaped from the 78th floor of Tower One in the World Trade Center moments before it collapsed.

Michael wrote a book about his experience, Thunder Dog, which became a New York Times Best Seller, and soon after, Michael and Roselle were thrust into the international limelight, where Michael began to share his unique survival story and 9-11 lessons of trust, courage, heroism, and teamwork.

Michael is now the author of three books and hosts The Unstoppable Mindset Podcast.
