Who Is Kiki Ramsey

I am a certified life coach and motivational speaker on finding life’s purpose and resilience. I have authored two books-Get Courageous Now: A Woman’s Guide To Finding Her Passions and Purpose In Life and the companion, Get Courageous Now Journal. For over the last 10 years I have studied, researched and coached hundreds of people to discover, live and prosper in their purpose by helping them overcome their mindset of fear and practicing resiliency so they can walk in their true calling. I have also implemented these same strategies into my own life overcoming a childhood riddled with parent addiction, teenage pregnancy and poverty.

What I believe

I believe everyone has a purpose in life and it’s our job to find out what that is and share it with the world. I believe that in order to live your true purpose it will take courage and resilience, both of which can be learned. I believe anyone can be successful. If I can grow up sleeping on a couch in a crack house and become a teenage mother at seventeen, then turn it all around by having a successful business where I coach hundreds of people every year, speak all over the world, and have an amazing husband, adult son and 2 toddlers, a daughter and son after 40 years old, then anyone can be successful.
