Kim Beam, a Hodgkin’s Lymphoma survivor, Reiki master, and intuitive reader, has transformed her battle with cancer into a mission of healing and empowerment. Her journey, marked by moments of despair and resilience, led her to a spiritual path centered on intuition, abundance, and courage. Through her teachings, books, and spiritual practices, Kim helps others connect with their inner guidance and live more authentically.
In her book What the Doctors Don’t Tell You: One Woman’s Journey through Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Kim shares her experience of facing a life-threatening illness. She recalls feeling lost, scared, and alone during treatment. Although surrounded by family and friends who supported her, Kim struggled with the immense burden of fighting for her life. “I was the one who faced death every other week,” she reflects. At one point, she was ready to give up, but her mother, a steadfast source of strength, refused to let her quit. “We’ve come too far for you to give up now,” her mother urged. This moment became a turning point in Kim’s battle, reminding her of the importance of resilience and the impact of a strong support system.
Almost 15 years after surviving Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Kim’s perspective on life has evolved. She now embraces life as something to be lived and explored fully. “I have learned the power of saying ‘YES’ to experiences,” she says. This mindset underpins her work, where she encourages others to trust their intuition, live courageously, and embrace their unique spiritual paths.
Kim holds two master’s degrees, one in creative writing and one in social work, and she seamlessly blends her intellectual background with her spiritual practice. As a Reiki master and intuitive reader, she describes herself as “a little bit magical and a little bit practical.” This blend allows her to use intuitive insights to inspire hope while offering practical steps to help others achieve their goals. “My ability to use intuitive knowledge to inspire hope is invaluable. My ability to apply that knowledge in practical ways to create a vision and a clear path is priceless,” she explains.
Kim’s work emphasizes grounding, manifesting abundance, and trusting intuition. She shares a story of how following her intuition led to a life-changing outcome. Several years ago, Kim sensed she would get a school therapy job she wanted, but the position didn’t come through at that time. Two years later, she was offered a similar job. Looking back, Kim realizes the timing worked out perfectly, as her father had become gravely ill during the period when she would have started the job. By trusting the process, she was able to be with her family during a critical time and embrace the new job when it was right for her life.
In her private Facebook group, Walk in Courage, Kim offers weekly teachings focused on meditation and spiritual growth. Meditation is central to Kim’s spiritual routine, allowing her to discern between ego-driven thoughts and the guidance of her higher self. “Meditation helps me know myself and enables me to hear my intuition with clarity,” she says. Each week, she shares a short teaching known as a “Deep Dive” and often goes live to demonstrate meditation techniques. Her goal is to help others develop a deeper connection with their intuition and trust in their inner wisdom.
Kim has written two books, What the Doctors Don’t Tell You and Walk in Courage: Trusting the Whispers of Your Intuition, both of which center on the themes of courage and trusting one’s inner voice. For those just beginning their journey, Kim offers simple advice: “Don’t give up. I did, and every time I did, life became flat and boring. I lost my spark and my joy.”
Kim acknowledges that intuition is often correct, but it’s how we apply it that can lead to mistakes. “Learning to marry your logic and reason with your intuition is so important,” she advises. Kim also stresses the value of having a mentor or trusted guide to support the process, as her own mentor was instrumental in helping her along her journey.
Through her books, teachings, and practice, Kim Beam continues to inspire others to walk in courage, trust their inner voice, and live empowered, joyful lives.
