Kimberly Stevens has been in the business of keeping hope alive through grit and gratitude in her own life for over 4 decades. Kimberly made her first "gritty" vow at age ten when she decided to "win" in swimming. This naïve decision eventually helped her become a swimming All American, Big Ten Record Holder, National Champion, and University of Iowa Hall of Fame Inductee. In addition to winning in the pool, Kimberly has never given up in life despite tragic loss.There are no magical formulas for enduring tragedy, but with God, Grit and Gratitude, Kimberly believes we can endure even the toughest storms in life. After enduring the death of her son, the life-threatening illness of her daughter, two divorces, a custody battle, breast cancer, and the foreclosure of her home, Kimberly has dedicated her life to helping people become spiritually and financially prepared in case the "big thing" happens. Kimberly earned a B.A.

from the University of Iowa and is currently licensed to sell health and life insurance in 23 states. Her award-winning agency, Kimsurance has been recognized as a top agency in Orlando, Fl.

Since founding Kimsurance in 2016, Kimberly has helped countless individuals and small groups in multiple states choose appropriate products to ensure they are fully protected in case of an unforeseen event.Her dream is to inspire people to hold on to hope so they will never give up, no matter what comes their way.When Kimberly is not working or swimming, she enjoys traveling with her grown children, Torrey and Daniel, spending time with her cousins in Orlando, or spending time in Naples, Fl with her mom.
